Including Files and Folders

InstallShield 2026 Express Edition

Your files, the core of your product, are also the core of your installation. When you add a file to your project, you must select which feature with which it is associated. Features are what end users see when they run your installation and select the Custom setup type. If the feature is selected for installation, the feature’s files are installed to the target system.

You can add files to your project in the Files view.
