How EXE to MSI Repackaging Works
Benefit from a guided, step-by-step workflow that ensures optimal repackaging results and improves the overall quality of your installation packages
Prepare Repackaging Environment
Choose a clean environment for repackaging — either a local or remote virtual machine running on a supported virtualization platform. You can also repackage on Windows Sandbox or on your local machine if it meets the requirements.
Configure Package Options
Specify settings for the output package. Choose the required package format, such as MSI or MSIX, and define the output file location. Configure package signing options and any MSI or MSIX-specific settings to align the result with your packaging requirements.
Follow the Installation Process
Installation monitoring starts automatically, allowing you to follow the steps of the installation you are repackaging. Select the required installation options so that all changes are captured and included in the output package.
Get the Generated Package
Upon completion of the installation, system change monitoring stops automatically and the output package is generated. It contains all captured installation data, accurately reproducing the recorded changes. You can review the modify them.
Test the Package
If needed, you can test the generated package. Select the test environment — a virtual machine, Windows Sandbox, or your local machine. The package is deployed for testing, and the results are presented in a detailed report.
Deploy the Package
You can use the built-in Intune integration to publish the generated package to Microsoft Intune. Once published, it can be assigned to users and devices. You can also deploy the package using external deployment solutions, such as SCCM or GPO.

Live Monitoring Technology
Outperforming traditional repackaging technologies, our Live Monitoring technology employs a Windows driver for real-time change detection, ensuring ultra-fast speeds and unmatched accuracy. This means immediate package creation without delays.
Process Change Association
Our Live Monitoring not only captures installation changes but also identifies the Windows processes that applied them. This feature enables precise tracking of changes, effectively filtering out irrelevant changes applied by system or unwanted processes.
Effective Monitoring Filters
Equipped with a thoroughly tested and refined set of filters, our tool effectively excludes unrelated changes and other non-essential modifications. These filters have been proven across thousands of packages to ensure you get a clean, uncluttered output package.
Applications Packaging
Looking to distribute Windows software, modernize legacy installations, or virtualize existing packages for more efficient deployment? A straightforward packaging process streamlines each task, reducing complexity and making the entire workflow smoother from start to finish.
Deployment-Ready Packages
Whether you're using GPO, SCCM, Intune, or other tools, generated packages are built for seamless deployment. They install silently, offer universal compatibility with different platforms, and support automatic distribution, meeting all your deployment requirements.
Convert Legacy Installations
Easily repackage non-silent installations into silent packages. Upgrade and repackage legacy software into MSI, MSIX, and IntuneWin formats, making them fully compatible with modern deployment tools. Bundle all dependencies into a single deployable package.
Flexible Repackaging Environment
Choose your repackaging environment — your local machine or a virtual machine for a clean setup. Compatible options include VMware, Hyper-V, VirtualBox, and Windows Sandbox, providing flexibility for repackaging on both local and remote VMs.
Testing for Reliable Deployment
Ensure your package performs as expected before production deployment. Test deployments on a local machine or VM, with detailed checks and logging available. This step helps validate compatibility across different environments for a smooth rollout.
Creating Installations
Create and fine-tune installations using visual editors designed for all skill levels. They provide full control over installation components without added complexity, letting you focus on refining your packages while keeping editing clear and manageable.
Output Format Switching

Cross-Environment Deployment
Create packages designed for compatibility with multiple Windows versions and system settings. Our tool automatically transforms environment-specific installation elements into universally applicable resources, ensuring seamless deployment on any system.
Streamlined Update Process
Easily create packages that support updates. These installations automatically replace older product versions during deployment by using the native update mechanisms. Configuring updates is straightforward and requires only specifying a few package properties.
Secure Package Signing
Ensure your packages align with modern deployment standards, including strict digital signature verification. Automatically sign your packages as they are generated, using your own code signing certificate, to comply with security policies of deployment tools.
Customizing Installations
Customize any installation by adjusting deployment behavior, combining multiple setups into one package, and including required dependencies. This approach helps turn complex packaging tasks into manageable ones and adapts packages to your specific needs.
Wrap Existing Installations
If your existing installation supports silent deployment, you can easily wrap it into an MSI or IntuneWin package. The wrapped package runs the installation with predefined deployment options. You can also combine multiple installations into a single package.
Pre/Post-Install Actions
Customize installations by adding actions to execute before or after the install or uninstall process. Run system commands, launch executable files, or include custom scripts directly in the package, ensuring the setup meets your specific requirements.
Per-User/Machine Installations
Choose between per-user or per-machine deployment for your packages. This option addresses different installation scenarios, including allowing non-administrative Windows users to install per-user packages without requiring elevated permissions.
