Chapter 1: <strong>InstallShield</strong> <strong>2012</strong> <strong>Express</strong> <strong>Edition</strong><br />

What Was New in Earlier Versions of <strong>InstallShield</strong> <strong>Express</strong> <strong>Edition</strong><br />

Ability to Create .cab Files Without Compression<br />

A new Cab Optimization Type setting is available on the Build tab for a release that is selected in the<br />

Releases view. If Compressed or one of the custom options is selected for the Compression setting, use<br />

the Cab Optimization Type setting to specify the type of compression that <strong>InstallShield</strong> should use when<br />

building the release’s .cab files. The available options are LZX compression, MSZIP compression, or no<br />

compression.<br />

The Cab Optimization Type setting replaces the Optimize Size setting, which had support for only LZX<br />

compression and MSZIP compression; it did not let you skip compression.<br />

This enhancement is available in <strong>Express</strong> projects.<br />

For more information, see Build Tab.<br />

New Refresh Button in the Redistributables and Prerequisites Views<br />

The Redistributables view contains a new Refresh button that you can use to refresh the list of<br />

redistributables that are displayed in the view. Previously, if you added redistributables to your machine<br />

when this view was open in <strong>InstallShield</strong>, it was necessary to close and then reopen the project in order<br />

to see an updated list in the view.<br />
