General Information View

InstallShield 2012 Spring Express Edition

The General Information view contains basic information about your setup, your company, and the application that you are installing. Some of the information you enter in this view is for your reference only, some is necessary to comply with Windows logo requirements, and the rest is for configuring basic installation settings.

When you create a new installation project, you must configure its General Information view settings. InstallShield creates new projects with default settings, but you should set your own values so that your project includes data that is specific to your needs.

The General Information view consists of the following elements:

A row of buttons
A grid of settings

The following table describes the buttons that are displayed in the General Information view.
