Clickteam '''Install Maker''', known after 2003<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20031211154046/http://www.clickteam.com/English/news_archive.php, section "8/1/03 - Install Creator"</ref> (presumably with the release of v. 2.0) as '''Install Creator''', with variants '''Install Maker Pro''' and '''Install Creator Pro''', is a [[Windows]] program that generates installers. Like most other installer generators, it tries to imitate the output of [[InstallShield]]. The program was released in either 1998<ref>"About" window in Install Creator, version 2.0, builds #28 and #45</ref> or 1999<ref>Most places other than those previously mentioned, including the online documentation and on-install license agreement of examined Install Creator copies, as well as the "About" window of Install Maker v. 1.2e</ref>, and, as of 2020, the last released version<ref>v. 2.0, build #45, linked from https://www.clickteam.com/install-creator-2</ref> has a copyright date of 2015, presumably indicating that development has stopped.

Like with other installers, Install Maker project files do not store copies of files to be included in the installation, only references, which are only incorporated when the installer is built.

== Extensions ==
The regular editions of both Install Maker and Install Creator use the extension ".iit" for their main files, and the "Pro" editions of both use the extension ".iip". Install Maker added "template" files, which have the extension ".imt" in both editions.

== Identification ==
An examined version of Install Maker<ref>Version 1.2e, English</ref> made .iit files beginning with {{magic|03 00 01 00}}, whereas the Pro version with the same version number makes .iip files beginning with {{magic|03 00 02 00}}. Install Creator's project files (.iit) seem<ref>Version 2.0, build #45</ref><ref>Version 2.0, build #33</ref> to begin with [[ASCII]] {{magic|IC }}, whereas Install Creator Pro's project files (.iip) begin with [[ASCII]] {{magic|ICP }}<ref>Version 2.0, build #17</ref><ref>Version 2.0, build #39</ref>. Both editions of Install Creator seem to have template files (.imt) beginning with {{magic|?? 06 05 00}}.
