If your component consists only of files which need to be placed, and optionally registered for COM, in either the program directory, the system directory, or the GAC, then the NSIS Generic Component Installer can be used to created an executable setup program. To use the NSIS Generic Component Installer, follow these steps:

Download and install the NSIS system. You can get directly from its SourceForge download site here: http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Download
Create a folder and place the NSIS Generic Component Installer script file in that folder. You can get the NSIS Generic Component Installer script file from the EncounterPRO-OS Developer Community Site here.
Create the following subfolders, as needed:

Files placed in this subfolder	Will end up here when the setup executable is run
Files	EncounterPRO-OS Program Directory
RegFiles	EncounterPRO-OS Program Directory, with registration for COM/Interop
GAC	Global Assembly Cache
GACReg	Global Assembly Cache, with registration for COM/Interop
Sys	Windows System Directory
SysReg	Windows System Directory, with registration for COM/Interop

Note that you do not need to create a subfolder if it will have no files in it. When all of the needed subfolders are created and all of the files are in the appropriate subfolder, then open a command prompt, set the current diectory to the parent folder (the one with all the subfolders in it) and run the following command:

"C:\Program Files\NSIS\makensis.exe" /DName="<Component Name>" /DVersion=<Version> "NSISGenericComponentInstaller.nsi"

,,, replacing the <Component Name> with actual component name, and <Version> with the version of the main assembly (or whatever version you want to call it).

Note that if you are on a 64-bit computer or you installed NSIS to somewhere other than its default location, then you may need to also change the path of makesys.exe. On a 64-bit system, the default path is "C:\Program Files (x86)\NSIS\makensis.exe".

When the installer-creator completes, you should be left with an executable setup program in the parent directory. Its name will be a concatenation of the component name, the component version, and word "install".
