Sorry for bumping, but InstallShield versions 1.0 and 3.0 are almost impossible to find!

Maybe someone in the following forum can give you the installer files:

There seems to be a download link for "installshield 3 engine" in this forum:

I'm looking for InstallShield 1.0 (from 1990) and InstallShield3 (circa 1995).
InstallSHIELD 2.0 is already here (http://vetusware.com/download/InstallShield%202.0/?id=7447).

Again, sorry for bumping, but InstallShield versions 1.0 and 3.0 are almost impossible to find!

IDK why InstallShield 1 and 3 are impossible to find today.

I think they were delivered via downloaders, which get automatically erased from the harddisk upon successful installation. So it's very hard to find them on the net, and even if you find such a downloader somewhere, the embedded URL to the actual installation file would be probably outdated anyway. If you really need this version, i think it's the best to contact the developer (and offer him some money).

Thanks for letting us know about that DavidLeu :)

However, some sources claim that InstallShield3 used to be a retail product.

I mean, it was a retail product too.

I don't think so...

Anyone still having an InstallShield3 CD-ROM should image it and upload to something like MediaFire!!

Actually InstallShield3 was a retail product.

Here (http://vetusware.com/download/InstallShield3%203.00.115.0/?id=9481) is InstallShield3.
But I heard InstallShield3 was more or less a retail product.
