I've created an installation package using Installaware and generated an EXE and a MSI. The EXE is 3.1MB and the MSI is only 265K. Why is there such a big difference in size?

An MSI file is a Windows Installer database file capable of installing software. It requires the right version of the Windows Installer Engine Runtime at the very minimum to be
