Application Conversion Project Wizard

AdminStudio 2020 | 19.0 | Automated Application Converter

When using the Automated Application Converter to perform batch conversion to virtual packages, there are three main procedures that you perform:

•

Step 1: Select packages—Select packages to virtualize and/or repackage.

•

Step 2: Select machines—Select the virtual machines that you want to use during automated repackaging.

•

Step 3: Select formats and perform conversion—Select the virtualization formats you want to convert to and perform the conversion.

You can use the Application Conversion Project Wizard to perform all three of these steps in one guided procedure.

•

Creating a new project after product launch—Select Project Wizard on the Tools menu or when you click the Project Wizard icon on the toolbar, or select New Project on the File menu.
