Forcing Install parameters

[Dianne]

Hi,
For a large scale rollout, we want to force certain configuraiton parameters such as turning the “include personal address book” on.

What is the best approach to setting default parameters? Is there a default config file that can be read by the setup program?

Thanks in advance

Thanks for your enquiry.

At present Archive To Go supports defining preset configuration parameters, but there is no way to force these parameters to apply.

To preset the configuration parameters, run Creator as though you were about to archive an account. On each of the configuration screens, choose the options that you want to be your customized defaults. When you reach the Confirmation screen, press Cancel. The parameters will be saved to the Windows Application Data folder for the “roaming user”, usually:

C:Documents and Settings[User Name]Application DataAdvansysArchive To Gosettings.xml

You will need to distribute this file to all users of Archive To Go; it must be copied into the equivalent “roaming Application Data” folder for each user.

Note: Your users’ roaming Application Data folders may be network-based, if the system administrator has set up a Windows policy to do this.

I hope this helps. If the approach outlined above does not suit your requirement, you may wish to consider a customised solution; in that case please write a detailed description to support@advansyscorp.com.

Regards,
