Clickteam Patch Maker is a utility that allows you to create patches to update your software. It allows you to create patches that contain just the altered data. It saves a large amount of bytes by storing just the differences between files and compressing this data. With Clickteam Patch Maker you can create very small update patches, independent of the size and number of files of the original installation. You also have increased protection for your update as most of the data is not stored in the update patch, it is impossible to steal your software unless you already possess a previous version of the software. Other features of Clickteam Patch Maker include: a completely configurable interface for the extractor, including all the texts, error messages and bitmaps\; the ability to preview the final look at any time during development\; support for multi-lingual updates\; the ability to update several versions within the same executable\; the ability to display a report when patch is completed\; and the ability to retrieve installation directories from INI files or the registry base. You can also exclude several zones from the files to update, allowing you to preserve user-related data which is stored within files (such as software protection, and registration numbers).
