Install Creator is a program by Clickteam that lets you make installers for any project. Install Creator is the companion product to Patch Maker and a stripped down version is included with Multimedia Fusion 2 and Clickteam Fusion 2.5. It features a step-by-step wizard to easily set up files, the presentation (such as images) and various pages of text to your installer. Uninstallers can be also created too.

In the Options menu, there is an option labeled Run As Administrator. If this is unchecked, then users will not have to enter an administrator password to run the installer. The user will still be able to run it as admin by right-clicking the file and clicking Run As Administrator. If the program is not run as admin, it will give an error when attempted to install into admin-protected areas (such as the Program Files folder).
