installer |
1 definition found From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (13 Mar 01) [foldoc]: installerA {utility} program to ease the installation of another, probably larger, {application}. It is also possible for {hardware} to have an installer accompany it to install any low level {device drivers} required. The installer commonly asks the user to enter desired configuration options for the main program or hardware, and sets up various initialisation files accordingly, as well as copying the main program to a {hard disc}. Some badly designed operating systems require applications to provide an {uninstaller} because of the number of different files modified or created during the installation process. (1998-02-09)
