SSE Setup (short for Simple Smart Easy Setup) is a free, customizable, multilingual software installation and uninstallation files packaging tool for Windows. It can help developers create new versions of programs or release a new update/patch/hotfix project for solving software bugs or other types of problems through a step-by-step guide.

As a reliable and user-friendly Windows Installer creating program, SSE Setup comes with many features, such as copying files, registering DLL/OCX files, creating/setting/deleting registry items, creating shortcuts, and more. Programmers can use it to quickly make the installer and uninstaller for their own programs. The resulting setups are free of any ads or plug-ins, and compatible with almost all versions of Windows.
