A .ILG file is a InstallScript Log File, created by Flexera.

Open with Flexera InstallShield. Available for Windows.

What is a .ILG file?

An .ILG file is a type of document that gets made when you install some software on your computer using a special method called InstallScript or InstallScript MSI. Think of it like a diary that keeps track of everything that happened during the installation process. This can be really helpful if you need to look back and see what the installation did, like what changes it made to your computer or if there were any problems.

To make and work with these .ILG files, there's a specific program called Flexera InstallShield. This program is pretty cool because it lets people create their own setup programs for their software. So, when someone uses InstallShield to set up their software on your computer, and if they've turned on a special feature called logging, the InstallShield program will automatically make an .ILG file. This file will have all the details about the installation, such as which files were added or what changes were made to the computer's settings.

Now, if you ever need to open and look at an .ILG file, you can't just use any program. You need to use some special tools that come with the InstallShield program. These tools are called Log File Viewer and InstallShield Cabinet. They're designed to let you easily read and understand what's inside the .ILG file.

In summary, an .ILG file is like a detailed report of a software installation process, created by InstallShield when installing software using InstallScript or InstallScript MSI. To view these files, you need to use specific tools provided by InstallShield.
