The Underlying Importance of Application Packaging

Windows is the most used operating system in the world and almost 90% of all personal computers run on Windows. To match this trend, almost all the big names in the software industry release their products to run on Windows. With everything readily available, companies and organisations rely on Windows for their work as well. In bigger corporations, we can find thousands of computers running on Windows.

This is why Windows application packaging is so important. Application here is the software and packaging is compiling every file, code and data needed by the installer into one executable. That one executable can be used to install the program.

Now, why is it important to get this installer absolutely perfect? Because, a great installer doesn't only install the program but also offers other features. For example, if an installed program get corrupted, the installer should be able to ‘heal’ it. In large organisations, it is impossible to sit at every computer and install the program. A great installer should give the network admins the chance of mass installing it over the internet or the company intranet. A good installer should also have an uninstaller program and should give the user or the administrator the options to issue upgrades when available.

All these features are manually added into each installer during Windows installer packaging. This is why you need an expert taking care of these installers.
