I am trying to make this product into a important resource that people can use in their jobs or hobbies. To this end I provide software I have written and provide links to other sites. I wish to stress that you take full responsibility for ensuring that software or information provided by this site (or any sites this site links to) is correct and suitable for use in your intended environment.

Please double check the licencing of any tools as I may be wrong or it may have changed since I looked at it. Some tools mentioned may be free in some situations and require purchasing in others. Let me know of these details and I'll update the documentation.

Note that MAKEMSI is supplied "as is" and may (and probably does) contain bugs. It is just impossible to test software (or even information) in all environments as there are just too many possibilities. For this reason you should test any software/information yourself for suitability before using in production or placing onto machines containing important information. By doing this you will have helped ensure that there are no unintended drastic side effects. Prior to testing it is recommended that a full backup of your hard disk be performed.

I do not promise to enhance any of my programs, although if interest is shown then I'm likely to do so. While I will try to keep programs backwards compatible with older versions, I will at times (intentionally or not) change the product in such a way as to require you to make changes to your source (batch files, code etc) if you wish to upgrade to the newer version of the product. It is recommended that you backup your source and the older version of my programs before trying a newer version. I also highly recommend reading the change history to see what changes have been made which may affect you. The minimum validation you should perform is to ensure that every MSI generated is passed through a full validation (MAKEMSI can do this for you or you need to use "ORCA" or a similar tool). Take particular care any time you have updated MAKEMSI.

The fact that I'm linking to other sites does not mean that I recommend them and the order of sites is not necessarily significant.

I believe the information I have provided is correct, if you know otherwise or wish to report a bug in my software then please contact me.

Please ensure that you have read the licence file you agreed to during the MAKEMSI install (MAKEMSI also installed a shortcut to it), if you don't agree you should uninstall MAKEMSI.
