Making an installer for your screensaver
When deploying your screensaver to other computers, the best method is to create an installer. To do this, on Step 4 - Ready to Create select Create an Installer for the Screensaver. Then, click on Options to be presented with the following window:
Any Logo Screensaver Creator uses the de facto standard Inno Setup for the installer.
Include an uninstaller
This allows the end user to uninstall your screensaver, the same way most other software is uninstalled.
Install in System32 folder
This option makes the installer try to install to the user's
system folder. While this is the proper location to install screensavers, please be aware that some users may not have enough access to write files there.
If this option is not selected, then the installer will create a folder in the user's
Program Files location.
Add to Start Menu
Check this option to add a submenu to the user's start menu.
Link to your website
You can also add a link to the website, specified in
Step 3 - More Options.
Active Screensaver
Set this option to make the installer automatically set the screensaver as the active one.
Logon Screensaver
This option instructs the installer to set your screensaver as the login screensaver. This is the screensaver that is displayed at the login screen, when Windows asks for your username and password.
