can I create an setup file that extracts an msi file to a temporary directory and runs it with options same or similar as were passed for the msi file?
The command line option is
msiexec /i "path of msi file" /qn

using a [Winzip self extractor](http://www.winzip.com/fr/prodpagese.html) appears to be more appropriate in your case, After decompressing the self-extracting Zip files can run an installation program that you provided – Ait Yahia Idir Jan 04 '15 at 10:34

There is a free version of installshield for visual studio. It calld indtallshield LE and then you can build setup from within visual studio. The second option is to compress your msi into rar and then create self extract.
