ISSnapshot.ini File

AdminStudio 2023 | 25.0 | OS Snapshot Wizard

Edition:Application Manager is included with AdminStudio Professional and Enterprise Editions.

The ISSnapshot.ini file is the default exclusion file for the OS Snapshot Wizard. It contains exclusions to be applied when capturing an OS snapshot, and mainly focuses on specific items that should not be included in applications, such as InstallShield Professional-specific COM settings and OS Snapshot–specific registry entries.

The file is located in the Windows folder, and can be edited using the Exclusions Editor, or using a text editor. See Exclusions Editor Interface.

Note:It is strongly recommended that you not modify this file, as it increases the likelihood of either inadvertently omitting necessary pieces of the OS snapshot, or including registry entries or files that should not be part of the snapshot.
