I mean they're still using Inno Setup which was pretty cool in 2004.

For some reason, that holds an appxbundle per the article. I'd suspect they needed to run some pre- or post-install code (maybe to check for their hardware?).

Unfortunately, WiX is still a pain in the ass to use and there's a lot of simple tooling that makes NSIS/InnoSetup/etc shockingly easy to use while the same MSI experience is garbage.

msix is just a different beast entirely too.

		What about using the Visual Studio packaging tools? I live on .NET/C++ universe in regards to Windows development, so it might be it isn't as nice for not blessed stacks.

I mean I still build windows installers with NSIS which has somehow just-worked for decades.
