    The structure of this video is fundamentally different from the ones to follow since it covers useful theoretical concepts that we need to know before diving into the practical part of application packaging.

    So, we will not include any demos today - but all the next videos will focus on the hands-on approach to packaging.


  • How to Set Up a Simple Lab4:18

    In this lesson, you will find out how to set a VMWare machine up and running, and Advanced Installer is connected to it. Also, this will be useful later when we touch on the repackaging subject.

Requirements

  • Basic knowledge of computer
  • Understanding of Windows OS (files, registry, services, etc)
