How to Extract an Inno Setup Installer

Download InnoExtract

• Windows – innoextract-<version>-windows.zip
• Linux – innoextract-<version>-linux.tar.xz (not tar.gz, that’s the source code)

You need the latest version. The one from your package manager may be too old.

Extract and:

• Windows – Copy “innoextract.exe” to a folder available in your PATH – tutorial
• Linux – Copy “innoextract” from “bin/amd64” to “~/.local/bin/”

Usage:

innoextract <installer> -d <output_location>

Example:

innoextract example-installer.exe -d installer

This will extract all files into a folder called “installer”.
