That is, through the group policy to deploy the software to the computers in the domain, to automatically install and deploy the software to the client, and

Software deployment is divided into distribution (Assign) and release (publish). The software needs to be Windows Installer.

Package

That is, the software contains installation files with the extension .msi.

Such as Microsoft Office 2007

For example, after assigning a software to a domain user through group policy, when the user logs in on any computer in the domain, the software

Will be announced (Advertised) to the user, but the software is not installed securely, but only this

Only part of the information about the software, for example, a shortcut to the software may be automatically created at the beginning of all programs.

Under what circumstances will this software be installed?

The user starts running the software: for example, by starting all programs to select a shortcut to the software or double-clicking the

After the shortcut, the software is installed automatically

Use the file startup function (Document Activation): for example, suppose the advertised program is office

Excel 2003 will install the software automatically when the user clicks on the .xls file, which is called

File startup function.

Assign to user

After a software is assigned to a domain user through a group policy, the software is not automatically installed on the user's computer

Instead, it is up to the user to install the software in two ways.

Install through the control panel

Start control panel program acquisition program win7

Start the control panel program to get a new program from the network installer winVista

Use the file startup function

That is, to associate a certain document suffix to install a certain software, when the user clicks on a suffix document, it will automatically

Install the associated software

Assign to a computer

After a software is assigned to domain member computers through group policy, these computers will automatically install this when they start up.

A piece of software

Tips:

1. The software cannot be released to the computer and can only be assigned to the computer if it is already installed on the user's computer

For other versions of office, its documentation is already associated with the installed office, that is, this is calculated at this time

As far as the machine is concerned, the file with the extension .xls is not an unknown file type, which helps this user manage windows resources in the

When you double-click a file with a .xls extension in the device, the system uses the installed office software to open it instead of

Office will be installed automatically through ADDS

Automatic repair software

The Windows Installer Package that is released or assigned can have the function of automatic repair, that is, the client can be installed in the

After the installation is completed, if the critical files in the software program are damaged, lost or accidentally deleted by the user, the user runs this

When the software is used, the system automatically detects this anomaly and reinstalls these files.

Delete softwar

You can use Group Policy to delete the software of this computer in the domain and set the next time the user logs on to this computer to start

Automatically removes the software from the user's computer.

Publish software to users ()

Release software

First create a software distribution point (Software Distribution Point is used to store windows Installer

Package's shared folder) then sets the default storage location of the software, and finally publishes the software to the user.

1. Create a folder to share the software, and the last share is named Hidden $, and put the .msi software in this directory

Shared files should be everyone readable

two。 Start Administrative tools Group Policy Management Open to specific Group Policy user configuration Policy Software Settings

3. User configuration Policy Software Settings Software installation right New

Repackage the software into a MSI application

Advanced Instaler

Exetomsi

Wininstall_LE

Exemsi

Learning experience

1. Assign to domain user domain user control panel acquirer or establish file association to install

In this way, no matter where the user goes, the domain client will associate or advertise the installation software as long as he logs in.

two。 This software is automatically installed after the computer is assigned to boot (note that this should be placed in the computer configuration policy)

3. Publish to domain users need to manually click the control panel to get the program to install the software

4. Advanced installer,wininstall_le and exetomsi can all be used to make files.

But the only successful test is exetomsi. Other software is very powerful, but it costs a fee.
