View and extract content from MSI files

lessmsi is a program that allows you to view and extract the contents of any MSI file without having to install it first. For all intents and purposes, this software allows you to treat any MSI installer as if it were any other compressed file. You can take a detailed look at all the information inside and, if you like, extract its contents into a folder.

Review all the information

There are times when it might be interesting to see more information about an MSI file before you install it. It is the same reason why you would normally open a ZIP file to see what it contains before unzipping it. Thanks to Less MSIerables you can do just that. Just open the program, select the MSI file you want to look into, and you will instantly see a summary of all the information inside it.

Integration with Windows Explorer

An interesting aspect of lessmsi is that its functionalities can be integrated into Windows Explorer. To do so, simply activate this option from the Options menu. Once you do this, a shortcut to the program will appear when you right-click on an MSI file. This will save you a lot of time when dealing with these installers.

The best way to work with MSI files

Download Less MSIerables if you regularly install software via MSI files. MSI files are usually reliable and should not cause any problems, but it never hurts to take a look at them before proceeding with the installation. Thanks to this lightweight software you can do this in the simplest possible way.
