Tip

If you plan to deploy an EXE-based installer, use our free script to help you extract the required information from the registry. See Finding properties for EXE-Based Installers for more information.

The hash for the file is calculated as the file is uploaded to your portal and will show as completed once the file has been uploaded.

1. If the installer does not require any additional folders or files, click Next to go to the General Information tab. If the installer does require additional folders or files, go to Extra Folders and Files.
