Monero GUI Wallet Windows Installer

Copyright (c) 2014-2018, The Monero Project

Introduction

This is a Inno Setup script Monero.iss plus some related files that allows you to build a standalone Windows installer (.exe) for the GUI wallet that comes with the Lithium Luna release of Monero.

This turns the GUI wallet into a more or less standard Windows program, by default installed into a subdirectory of C:\Program Files, a program group with some icons in the Start menu, and automatic uninstall support. It helps lowering the "barrier to entry" somewhat, especially for less technically experienced users of Monero.

As the setup script in file Monero.iss has to list every single file of the GUI wallet package to install by name, this version of the script only works with exactly the GUI wallet for Monero release Lithium Luna that you find on the official download page.

But of course it will be easy to modify the script for future versions of the GUI wallet.

Building

You can only build on Windows, and the result is always a Windows .exe file that can act as a standalone installer for the Lithium Luna GUI wallet.

The build steps in detail:

  1. Install Inno Setup. You can get it from here
  2. Get the Inno Setup script plus related files by cloning the whole monero-core GitHub repository; you will only need the files in the installer directory installers\windows however
  3. The setup script is written to take the GUI wallet files from a subdirectory named bin; so create installers\windows\bin, get the zip file of the GUI wallet from here, unpack it somewhere, and copy all the files and subdirectories in the monero-gui-0.12.3.0 directory to this bin subdirectory
  4. Start Inno Setup, load Monero.iss and compile it
  5. The result i.e. the finished installer will be the file mysetup.exe in the installers\windows\Output subdirectory
