After you open an installation package, a set of pages for that installation package appears in
SMART Install Manager. Customize the installation package using the controls on these pages.
Saving your changes
After you customize an installation package, save your changes as an XML file by selecting
File >
Save As
. When you next start SMART Install Manager, load the XML file by selecting
File > Open
,
or by opening the MSI file and then selecting
File > Import
.
Publishing your changes as an MST file
The final step in using SMART Install Manager to customize an installation package is to publish your
changes as an MST file. To do this, select
File > Publish
, and then use the dialog box to define a
location for and create the MST file.
T I P
If you use an older MST file created with an earlier version of the MSI file, it might not work properly.
Use the current MSI file to create your MST file. Publish the MST file in the same location as the
MSI file.
