Capturing Applications
Note
A security setting in Windows Vista or later operating system prevents the Virtual
Capture and SmartMonitor methods from working. When you try to use either method, a
prompt appears and provides the option to disable the security restriction. If you choose
to disable the security restriction, the following registry setting is set:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows
NT\CurrentVersion\Windows>LoadAppInit_DLLs=1
The initial default for this setting is 0. If you disable this restriction, your computer’s
vulnerability to malicious attack is increased. However, if you run SetupCapture in a
testing environment, the increased vulnerability might not be a critical issue.

Virtual Capture™
Virtual Capture lets you capture installations on a non-clean machine. The
application you capture is installed into a simulated computer directory structure
and its registry entries are installed into a simulated registry. To use Virtual
Capture, you must first create a Virtual OS, being sure to meet the Virtual Capture
requirements.
See Using SetupCapture With Virtual Capture on page 237.
Note
Virtual Capture is not available if you chose First Use Settings on the
SetupCapture Type page.
z
SmartMonitor™
SetupCapture monitors and records the installation’s operations as they happen.
This method is faster than snapshot comparisons, because it doesn’t require a time-
consuming scan of the computer.
SmartMonitor records the following operations:
„
Copying, moving, deleting, or opening a file
„
Replacing files even if they are the same size, modification date, and version
„
Creating or removing a directory
„
Creating, starting, stopping, or deleting a service
„
Setting or deleting a registry value, creating or deleting a registry key.
„
Overwriting existing registry keys with the same value
„
Installing ODBC drivers or configuring ODBC data sources
„
Changing .INI files regardless of their location
Note
SmartMonitor monitors all local directories, regardless of what is specified in
Directories to Watch.
z
Snapshot
SetupCapture scans the computer before installation occurs, then you perform the
installation, then SetupCapture rescans the computer. SetupCapture records the
differences between the two scans and adds them to the repackaged installation.
The disadvantages of this method are:
„
It does not capture the replacement of files if the files are the same size,
modification date, and version.
