Thanks guys for the links, I tried those but somehow they feel like just the options are missing that I need or at least I dont know how to use them.

What I need is registry edit and file copying to several directories.

Anyone of you guys actually used one of these softwares?

Not yet...

What kind of registry editing do you need ? Some basic editing can easily be done with a REG file, a simple text file. For the directory, winzip can automatically unzip to differents directory if directed to the falcon4 dir.

Tell you what, I've heard alot of stories about how these installers can be very sensitive and cause nightmares. Filestream.com has InstallConstruct which is one of the best, and has good product support. However, it won't be free, but contact them at support@filestream.com. If this will do the job, I will get it for you and then mail it to you. They are right here in NY.

Like the one example reg file I have on tutorial downloads, its just to import the it to registry and were all set.

Hmm true, but I think this will only get tons of "it does not work!!1" posts if our install package is anything beyond "point-click-and-play" styled approach :)

Surely I could release the theater for the hardcore underground guys with simple readme.txt, but... no, that will not work for whole F4 Community - so I'll try to get some nice install package together.
