Action Confirmation Prompts
Open Read-only:
Select this option to present a confirmation prompt to the user when
opening a file in a Read-only state. As a result, no changes are saved.
Example: If you open an image file created in RapiDeploy 4.5 or earlier, it is Read-only
and any operation performed cannot be saved. When you open this file, a confirmation
box appears, reminding you that the file cannot be saved.
File overwrite:
Select this option to present a confirmation prompt to the user when
extracting a file from an image file and overwriting an existing file on a destination
drive.
File revert:
Select this option to present a confirmation prompt when executing a File
revert operation, which returns the image file to its original file structure and content
after replacing files.
Paste and Drop:
Select this option to present a confirmation prompt to the user when
dragging a file to a new folder in an image file, when using the copy and paste operation
to move files to another folder, or when using the
Add New Files
command. See
Add
New Files
on page 322.
Exclude:
Select this option to present a confirmation prompt to the user when assigning
the

message appears when you click the check box on the file or folder or when you select
the
Exclude
operation.
Folder overwrite:
Select this option to present a confirmation prompt to the user when
extracting a folder from an image file and overwriting an existing folder on a destination
