NSISBI aims to remove the current 2GB limit found in NSIS.
NSISBI aims to remove the current 2GB limit found in NSIS. This version adds support for using a separate file for storing the install data, therefore allowing installer sizes up to a theoretical max size of 8EB (this is controlled by NSIS_CONFIG_EXTERNAL_FILE_SUPPORT, this is turned on by default). On versions before 7069-1, the compiler (makensis) is designed to run on 64 bit machines as this is the feature needed to make installers bigger than 2GB. On versions before 7208-1, source files added to the installer are limited to 2GB per file (this is controlled by NSIS_CONFIG_LARGE_FILE_SUPPORT, this is turned on by default). This project is the result of several different experiments focused on relieving the 2GB limit in NSIS, so it's still a work in progress. I'll try to keep it up to date with each major NSIS release. -

Foundatio
Pluggable foundation blocks for building distributed apps
Pluggable foundation blocks for building loosely coupled distributed apps. Includes implementations in Redis, Azure, AWS, RabbitMQ and in memory (for development). When building several big cloud applications we found a lack of great solutions (that's not to say there aren't solutions out there) for many key pieces to building scalable distributed applications while keeping the development experience simple. Wanted to build against abstract interfaces so that we could easily change implementations. Wanted the blocks to be dependency injection friendly. We were initially using an open-source Redis cache client but then it turned into a commercial product with high licensing costs. Not only that but there weren't any in-memory implementations so every developer was required to set up and configure Redis. We initially looked at NServiceBus (a great product) but it had high licensing costs (they have to eat too) and was not OSS friendly. -

PostInstallWizard (PIW) is a personal project designed to simplify post-installation of Windows systems (Windows 10/11). It provides a local, script-based, transparent alternative to older post-install tools (such as WPI/Windows Post-Install Wizard ), without relying on deprecated technologies (Internet Explorer engine, ActiveX, etc.). PIW supports: Silent installation of EXE / MSI applications Deployment of portable applications JSON-based configuration Full user control and local execution This project is developed without formal programming background, with assistance from ChatGPT, and is published as an alpha release. PIW is not affiliated with WPI and does not claim to replace it, but should be considered a spiritual successor adapted to modern Windows environments. Security note: False positives may occur due to BAT-to-EXE wrapping. All actions are local, transparent, and user-initiated.
