installer / setup creator?

Bonj

Hi
Is there a free installer / msi / setup creator available , that is capable
of installing assemblies into the GAC folder, the same way that the setup
project wizard in VS.NET does?
only free.

You can do that with a VS setup project, but the IDE doesn't show the GAC by
default. In the File System view, if you right-click on the File System on
Target Machine icon you should see Add Special Folder, the GAC is in that
list.
