Concentrated Technology

The document discusses preparing software for automated deployment after upgrading to Windows 7. It covers two key aspects: repackaging software to install silently without user input, and deploying the repackaged software using a deployment tool. For repackaging, it describes analyzing the installation format (EXE, MSI, etc.), identifying any silent installation switches, and using tools like WinINSTALL LE to capture changes if switches cannot be found. It also discusses customizing software post-installation using registry changes packaged via these same tools.

Agenda ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Many IT Professionals have problems with automated software distribution because it feels like a complicated topic.
