The lifecycle of a software product is accompanied by the release of different versions, and each version has some changes from the previous version. For example: modified part code of the executable file, added/deleted/replaced some files. A common way for software authors or publishers to update their products is to release a brand-new installer, or just an update installer. But it is often inefficient and wasteful, especially when there is just little content to be updated.

Patch Maker is tiny program update patch maker with wizard mode, developed by Clickteam from France. It only stores the altered data (i.e.: the differences between files) in patch, and has a certain file compression rate, so it is far more efficient than the usual method. Therefore, it does a pretty good job patching the program, and is very suitable for creating small and efficient updates/patches to your program.

Patch Maker provides a wizard to help you make your patches with ease. The wizard first asks you to browse to the folder that contains the old version and the one that contains the new version of your project files, then it generate a patch containing all the differences between the two. Besides, It also allows you to add various text pages and change the background images.

// Key Features //

  • Very small update patches, independent of the size and number of files of the original installation
  • As most of the data is not stored in the update patch, it is impossible to steal your software unless you already possess a previous versions of the software
