+echo   - Cleanly install CSG Packer Shipper Helper
+echo   - Automatically overwrite old versions (upgrade) safely
+echo   - Generate Desktop and Start Menu shortcuts with the app icon
+echo   - Register a clean uninstaller in Windows Add/Remove Programs

+echo Your PyInstaller application built successfully at:
+echo   dist\CSGPackerShipperHelper\
+echo.
+echo To wrap this folder into a professional Windows Installer (.exe):
+echo.
+echo 1. Download and install the free Inno Setup (version 6 recommended):
+echo    https://jrsoftware.org/isdl.php
+echo.
+echo 2. Once Inno Setup is installed, run this "build_installer.bat" script
+echo    again, and it will automatically compile the installer for you!
+echo.
+echo    Alternatively, you can:
+echo    - Right-click "installer.iss" in File Explorer and choose "Compile".
+echo    - Double-click "installer.iss" to edit/run it inside the Inno Setup GUI.
