Select one of the following options for the configuration file:
Caution •
Using the custom settings option, it is possible to use the local settings file (
isRepackager.ini)
in the
Windows directory. This file is also used for default exclusions for the Repackaging Wizard. By modifying this file,
you introduce the possibility of excluding data at repackaging time in subsequent Repackaging Wizard executions,
as opposed to marking items as excluded in a Repackager project (which does not affect the captured data). For
this reason, it is highly recommended that you do not use the
isRepackager.ini
configuration file in the local
Windows folder for your Repackager exclusions.
WinINSTALL Conversion Dialog Box
When you convert a WinINSTALL project to a Repackager project, this dialog box appears to allow you to set
WinINSTALL-specific variables. These variables are:

Exclusions Tab Properties
Option
Description
Do not use any external
configuration
Repackager will import all captured data into the Repackager project.
Use settings from the
shared location
Repackager will use the settings contained in isRepackager.ini in the
AdminStudio Shared
directory (configured during installation). Use this option
when you are working in a team environment where the exclusion list needs to
be stored in a centralized location.
Use settings from
InstallShield defaults
Repackager will use the settings contained in the default.ini file in the
Repackager folder. These are the InstallShield Editor-recommended exclusions.
It is recommended that you do not modify these exclusions so you can return to
them if you need to restart your exclusion list.
Edit
Click to open the Exclusions Editor, which you can use to exclude files, registry
entries, .ini files, or shortcuts from the Repackager project. See
Configuring
Exclusions Using the Exclusions Editor
and
Exclusions Editor Interface
for more
information.
Use settings from a
custom file
Specify or browse to a file created with the Exclusions Editor that you want to use
as your filter during conversion to a Repackager project. You would create a
custom exclusion file based upon your company's requirements.
