ITSA - Mass Silent installer - Free Open source

DriftCity · Oct 6, 2013

Hello Showcase and Release Section!

A few days ago a very good friend created something called ITSA, Install That Sh*t Already.
It's a mass silent installer, got a new windows and hate installing programs? Then this is a program you would like to download.

The programs that are used a lot daily are added, for example:
Chrome
Notepad++
Steam
VLC
Spotify
Skype
Firefox
Dropbox

And many many more!

He is still working on this project, but it's great that he is making this, there are several other programs that can do this installing, but you have to pay for these programs.
He will add more programs that are used daily!

He is also working on new features, currently there is no option to select where you would like to install your programs, it uses the default HDD where windows is on.

It's open source, you can download the source and the .exe here:

No, it should run for Windows 7 and 8, since it's build with .NET 4.5.
It will work with desktop programs and it will not work for Windows 8 metro apps.

                PropertyChanged(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(propertyName));
            }
        }
    }
}

It's just downloading and starting the setups in silent shell mode with raising events set to true. So it will not work for some installer engines I bet.

I would not pay for it, specially when I got the source now. He did not even use more than one project, simple as it is, it has not much logic, that's why.

He is still improving, it's just a fun project also.
There are a few websites that have this kind of program but then payed.

Feel free to give suggestions btw ^^

Although it has a much larger list to it's name, the GUI looks too simplistic and I'm not a huge fan of it.

I think you're talking about the engines which download stuff first? because most times those just download an full installation file, which I do now in the app, and if it just doesn't want to work, I just give a link to the install and put a star at the end of the name

If there are any other install engines that won't work, please report it

then I will fix it for that

In fact I was talking about your method and the installer cases you download. Not every installer is the same, I know of several installers that are not possible to run in shell mode automatically. Most installers need to done by opening and setting the path etc. Only msi files can install in shell mode without any prompt by the user always.

There are tons of programs in the world wide web, I do not bet you will add all of them that are not working in shell mode by hand.

Let's get this straight first: UseShellExecute is only true because it then uses the PATH environment variable to look up the location of the "file" I call, so now I can call msiexec for example

What you're talking about is the silent install command and yes that's true I can't fix all those. And Im not gonna fix them either. Those get a star behind the name (which means I can't silently install them). This app is mainly to make it easier to install all your stuff when you (re-)installed your pc. It can easily save 1-3 hours time to find all the downloads and install them. It's not a Program DB just a boost for your fresh install

I real life tested it 2 days ago, it works. (but Spotify is a witch. "I DONT WANT ADMINISTRATOR RIGHTS EWWW NOOO" fixed it already tho)

It's a silent installer, who cares about gui?

Again, who cares? it's understandable and it does it's purpose

Exactly, it completes it's purpose

On-topic:

I find it a bit useless, because not only ninite but even more silent installers are released on the web with big program lists.
not to mention you can request programs to be added.

we shouldn't really question the "usefulness" of an application because like every one say there are more then one of every one program out there, but what the program can do extra, faster or even better.

Welcome!
