At the "Shockwave Player Download Center" you can find a legacy setup by default. But, and this isn't mentioned at all at the download page, if you apply for a 'Adobe Shockwave Player Distribution License' you can get a Windows Installer package instead.
Visit the "Adobe Runtime Licensing" page", scroll to the "Distribute Adobe Web Players" section and click 'Learn More'. Then scroll to the 'Apply for a license section' and click 'License Shockwave Player '.
Create a Adobe membership account if you don't have one (don't be scared ... it's free) by entering an e-mail address. Then login. On the 'Shockwave Player Distribution Downloads' page, you can download three installers:
- Download Full EXE Installer
- Download Slim EXE Installer
- Download MSI Installer
You, of course, need the last link to the 'MSI Installer'.
