Extra Files

Applies to: Patch My PC Cloud

The Extra Files tab allows you to upload additional configuration files for a deployment.

To add extra folders and/or files:

1. Click the Extra File tab to expose the configurable settings.

   

2. Scroll down to the end of the Extra File section so that the buttons and their subtext are visible.

   

3. Either: • Drag and drop the relevant folders or files to the relevant area. • Click the relevant button to browse to and select the relevant folders or files.

Note

See Unsupported File Names and Extensions for Extra Files for a list of filenames and extensions we do not support for upload.

Also, adding a folder will add any files and folders (including their files) within the selected folder.

The hash will be calculated for any folders/files you upload, which will appear at the bottom of the Extra Files section.

Note

The total number of extra folders/files is not limited, but their total size must not exceed the storage limits for your license type. See Product Limitations for more details.

Also, if the Installer Type on the General Information page is set to .msi, the MST File section will be shown, allowing you to upload a single MST file. This file must have the .mst extension.

Uploading a .mst file automatically adds the following to the Additional Argument field of the Install Parameters section:

TRANSFORMS=[<mstfile>].mst

where <mstfile> is the name of the uploaded MST file.

1. Repeat Step 3. to add any additional folders/files as required.

2. Configure any other settings on the Configurations page as required, then click Next to move to the Assignments page.

   

Note

Once a deployment has been successfully created, you can add or remove any additional folders or files as required.
