Introduction to Tarma QuickInstall<\/p>\n

Tarma QuickInstall 2 is a software installer and uninstaller for Microsoft\u00ae Windows\u00ae 95, 98, Me, NT\u00ae 4, 2000 and XP applications. Its design goals are to provide Windows-compliant installation and removal functionality with a small distribution size, a straightforward and simple user interface, and smart install and (particularly) uninstall behavior.<\/p>\n

The TIN Setup program requires no external support files apart from the standard Windows system files. Its flexibility and small size (50-65 KB, depending on the options chosen) ensure that it loads very quickly and is suitable in many situations, including setup packages intended for downloading over the Internet and diskette-based distributions.<\/p>\n

The TIN Builder development environment offers a task-oriented approach to designing setup packages and supports this with smart defaults, a convenient and familiar user interface, extensive preflight checking, and single-keystroke project builds.<\/p>\n

Tarma QuickInstall provides everything to give your customers a quick, friendly, and hassle-free installation experience.<\/p>\n
