Repackage any installation to MSI/MST/App-V/ThinApp.

Repackage any installation to MSI/MST/App-V/ThinApp.

Installation repackaging is used to capture any setup and recreate it in a pure Windows Installer (MSI, MST), Microsoft Application Virtualization (App-V 5.0-5.2) and VMware Application Virtualization (ThinApp 5.0-5.2) packages.

PACE Suite has the most accurate and precise capturing engine with the following advantages:

  • Mechanism of smart detection of embedded and hidden vendor MSI installations.
  • Capturing permission changes of filesystem and registry.
  • 32-bit and 64-bit installations support on Windows 10/8.1/8/7/2012/2008 platforms.
  • Continuing capturing after system restart.
  • Excluding/including captured resources at any time.
  • Using global editable exclusion lists.
  • Environment variables and advertised information handling.
