Setting the Initial State of a Feature

AdminStudio 2023 | 25.0 | Tuner

To set the Initial State of a feature:

1. Under Organization in the checklist, select the Features view. This project’s Features are listed in the second column.
2. Select the feature that you would like to change the initial state of. The Properties for that feature are listed.
3. Click in the Initial State property in the Feature Properties grid and choose one of the selections from the drop-down menu. Your selections are:
The feature is not installed: By default, the feature will not be installed during setup.
The feature is installed on the local drive: By default, the feature will be installed on the local drive during setup.
The feature is run from source, CD, or the network: By default, the feature will be run from the source, whether it be from the installation CD or from the network.
The feature is advertised: By default, the feature will be advertised, but not installed. Essentially, this is an on-demand option; a shortcut will be created during setup, and if the shortcut is clicked, the feature will then be installed from the source. This ensures features that may be unnecessary are not installed until they are needed, if ever. For more information, see Using Feature Advertisement.

Note:The initial default settings run the Setup in a quiet mode.
