InstallShield 2026 » Create New QuickPatch Wizard
Project:
A QuickPatch project is recommended for installation authors who want to ship small, single updates to their users. QuickPatch authoring provides an alternative to creating a patch in the Patch Design view, even though it provides less customization. Fundamentally, both patch creation methods produce the same deliverable types: .msp and .exe files.
To create a QuickPatch project for an existing .msi file or an existing QuickPatch, use the Create New QuickPatch Wizard.
Note:If you click Cancel or Exit in the wizard, QuickPatch project creation will be incomplete, and the QuickPatch project will not open in InstallShield.
