I've been seeing a lot of AIO software lately that look like this:

Just a simple GUI with buttons that launch the setup program of that particular button you choose.
I code in a few languages, and I know how easy it is to set something up like this in let's say Visual Basic.
My question is are they using some program that is just a few steps to create these customized self containted .exe's?
Since I know if I coded in the VB I'd just make it point to the directory where I put the .exe and launch it, but most of these type of AIO setups are self contained .exe's.
Also, they all have a progress bar when you first open them (prob unloading the contents into a temp directory somewhere).
Any idea what they are using?
