The app itself is kind of disk burning software, but with many advanced capabilities - it can create bootable USB and DVD, with pre-configured Windows and pre-installed software at your choice. I like it a lot, thanks GOTD!

Installed on XP, install is smooth and easy - even no need to care about activation, it's pre-activated.

I was recently looking at this app with some interest and found an interesting and enlightening review at dottech:
http://dottech.org/miscellaneous/2898

This is actually yet another macro recording app, though geared toward software installation.
In other words, it allows you to record the steps you follow when installing an app (yes, you have to actually install it after installing and running MuliSet) and then it creates a package which you can use in the future to automate the process.
It also allows the creation of a Windows installation CD with many packages in order to install everything from scratch with almost no user intervention.
As far as I know it won't let you create a package from an app that's already installed and it also won't create an image of your current Windows installation (you may want to look for a disk imaging or partition backup tool for that).

I haven't tried it yet, although it does seem like an interesting concept (in a way...).

A good tool, not tried this version, but a previous version worked well in a business environment to install an XP system with pre-loaded apps. Saved a lot of time when rebuilding systems for different departments - imaging would have been easier, but too messy with so many various pieces of hardware around - so this was a good work-around.

I just finished the trial run of MultiSet and these are the results:

* After creating USB boot-able drive and copying the operating system on it (win 7 pro), I tried to re-installed it on a new freshly formatted drive and it said: WRONG KEYS ENTERED, CAN NOT CONTINUE.

* I re-did the above process again and came to the same point, where it said: CAN NOT OVERWRITE PREVIOUSLY INSTALLED OPERATING SYSTEM

* I tried this time on a re-writable disc and it did not copy some hidden operating system files from the original win 7 pro disc and came to the same point of disappointment.

I spend almost 2 hours and can not do what it claim can do.
Just uninstalled it. Some of you may have better luck than I.

For the non-tech people, will this burn a disk with windows and all the programs I have downloaded from this site, and make a bootable disk that can just give me an exact copy of my system and programs if my hard drive crashes? I have many programs from this site that I will lose if my hard drive ever quits. If it does it would be a wonderful back up.
