Save Feature Selections

This command saves feature selection information into a physical file. Feature selections indicate the features chosen to be installed by the user during a custom setup. This selection information may later be loaded using the Load Feature Selections command.

This command also saves the values of any persistent variables, the pre-defined variables TARGETDIR, STARTMENU and ALLUSERS, and the installation processor architecture.

File Path

The full path to the physical file that will receive feature selection information. If the file already exists, it will be overwritten.

 Warning

• Do not use this command to save feature selections to be loaded on setups built with versions of InstallAware earlier than InstallAware 6.

 Notes

• It is not necessary to manually save and load feature selections in the same version of a setup (that is, setups which have the same product and revision codes). In the same version of a setup, feature selections are saved and loaded automatically by the setup engine.
• Save and load feature selections manually only if you wish to migrate feature selection states between different versions of a setup.
