Deleted Files View

AdminStudio 2021 | 21.0 | Repackager

Edition:This feature is available in AdminStudio Standard, Professional, and Enterprise Editions.

From the Deleted Files view, you can examine information about each file deleted during repackaging, selectively exclude files or directories from the package you are creating, or reinclude previously excluded files.

The Deleted Files view is populated if you select the Deleted files option on the Analysis Options dialog box of the Repackaging Wizard

Note:The Analysis Options dialog box is opened by clicking Edit on the Set Target Project Information and Capture Settings panel of the Repackaging Wizard.

The upper pane displays the number of files captured and how many of these files will be excluded from the Windows Installer package when built. The lower-left pane provides a tree from which you can see where files will be installed and the names of the files. When you select a file from the tree, the lower-right pane displays attributes for that file. These attributes are:
