Look at the example scripts that comes with it. Everything you need to get started is there.

We can't jut guess what your script is like, what it's missing, or what else you expect it to do.

Example3.iss creates a program group in the start menu, asks for the folder where to install and all.
If you need an option to select which components to install, then look at the [Components] section.

Google will find plenty of tutorials. And there are even GUIs that will create scripts for you.

Go get ISTool from the third party files section.

It gives GREATER control over your scripts and everything to be done with them..

Also are you using the quick wizard? All in all it is pretty simple to make a small setup.

The installers extract the .exe's yes. That's what *ALL* installers do with them. There is no such thing as "installing a .exe", it's jut extracting/copying a file. If you want the installer to do something else with them, you'll have to tell it to.
