3.9 Installation and uninstallation on the network
To simplify installation of Avira products on a network of multiple client computers for the
system administrator, your Avira product has a special procedure for the initial installation
and the change installation.
For automatic installation, the setup program works with the control file setup.inf. The
setup program (presetup.exe) is contained in the program’s installation package.
Installation is started with a script or batch file and all necessary information is obtained
from the control file. The script commands therefore replace the usual manual inputs
during installation.
Note
Please note that a license file is obligatory for initial installation on the network.
Note
Please note that an installation package for the Avira product is required for
installation via a network. An installation file for Internet-based installation
cannot be used.
Avira products can be easily shared on the network with a server login script or via SMS.
