Repackaging with AdminStudio
 This
2-day course will provide you with a hands-on environment where you will
gain the skills needed to repackage traditional setups into Windows Installer
packages and rapidly customize them using AdminStudio. You will also gain
experience in creating transforms for existing third-party MSI packages, and
identifying and resolving conflicts between packages before deploying your
applications.
In this class you will learn:
- How to enhance and customize repackaged setups and to correct validation
errors.
- How to use AdminStudio's ConflictSolver to identify and
resolve potential conflicts between Windows Installer setups before
deployment into your desktop environment.
- How to use AdminStudio's Tuner to customize the
installation of existing Windows Installer setups - such as third-party
installations - to meet your company-specific requirements.
- How to use AdminStudio's Process Workflow tool to
create workflows to track and manage any pre-deployment process.
