I have some files on my laptop, I need to build program.exe installer or program.msi installer.

Purpose is:

-When pressing that program.exe, it must release one file to C: disk, and other file to desktop.

How can I do it? Where can I find this program?

Thanks too much!

Google for "Inno Setup" it's a installer creator program. Free and very popular.

Luthfi, I have downloaded Inno Setup, but how can I there specify two different directories to be released my files?

For example, one file must be released to desktop, other file must be released to C: local disk.

I tried, but it releases all files to Program files folder.
Thanks.

You specify that in the script. Inno Setup is the "compiler". You still need to write script of what the installer must do. Check its documentation, FAQ, and knowledge base. Also check the script examples that u have after installing Inno Setup.

You can also check out NSIS as a free option. Just like with Inno Setup, you're basically going to have to program where things go.
