We have the latest version of the Express Edition and trying to find more info on the "Compact" setup type. I've yet to find any real info on the forums, etc. I understand that if a client selects "Complete" all the features available in the package will be installed. And custom, well that brings you to the feature tree to select the features you want. When I try and test with "Compact", it installs a couple folders and some files. From what I can tell, the compact option only installs files/folders that are not tied to a feature? Is this correct?
Also, is there an option to with the express edition to default to the "Custom" option? I know I can hide the "Setup Type" dialog, but it then defaults to Complete.
Cheers

Re: Understanding Compact Setup Type
Unfortunately the Express Edition has limited features.
Otherwise the set of files of a MINIMAL installation (Compact setup type) could be easily defined via script code.
By default, the Features visual designer in the UI automatically excludes each setup feature in a non-complete setup (COMPACT) and automatically includes these in a complete setup.
Unfortunately, there is no way to default to a setup type from the Express edition.
