Tip: This is a reference page about one of the tools required to install RAD Studio. For installation instructions, see Installation.

The Installer is the installation wizard that installs RAD Studio.

You can get the Installer from Embarcadero.

The Installer provides a minimal installation of RAD Studio. This minimal installation does not provide project support, it can only be used as a plain text editor. You must use the Feature Installer (which the Installer opens automatically) or the Feature Manager from your minimal installation of RAD Studio to install additional features.

Existing License Detected

Berlin Update 2 includes license detection for existing Berlin licenses in the Feature Installer. If an existing license of the same version of the product is found on your system, you will see this screen in the install process. You can proceed with the installation using an existing license or enter a new license. Please note that this screen is shown only when an existing Berlin license is found on your system.
