A preferred embodiment of the present invention provides a software facility for installing software products. The facility first displays a list of available software products that may be installed. The facility then receives user input selecting one of the available software products. After user input is received, the facility executes a script for installing the selected software product. In the preferred embodiment, the script is derived from an installation program provided by the vendor of the software product. The facility thus installs the selected software product without executing the installation program provided by the vendor of the software product. In a further preferred embodiment, the facility produces the executed script by executing the vendor installation program provided by the vendor of the software product, identifying changes made during the execution of the vendor installation program, and generating a script that, when executed, effects the identified changes.
