Repackaging Legacy Installations Using the Repackaging Wizard
AdminStudio 2021 | 21.0 | Repackager
Installations created for the Windows Installer service dramatically differ from traditional installations, making reusing legacy installations impossible without using a repackaging tool. You can use Repackager’s Repackaging Wizard to capture the data placed on your system during installation and convert it into a Windows Installer (.msi) package, which you can then customize and distribute according to your organization’s needs.
