Administrator Tool: Installs the Administrator Tool to the Tools menu. This tool is used to
configure common (shared) profiles. The Administrator Tool is also used by an Information
Technology department to enable or disable features within the WiFi connection utility.
WMI Support: Windows Management Instrumentation functionality allows administrators who do
not have the WiFi connection utility installed to manage remotely clients that do have the WiFi
connection utility installed.
Single Sign On: Installs the Single Sign On Pre-Login Connect feature. This tool is used to
configure common (shared) profiles with the Administrator Tool. Single Sign On is targeted to the
enterprise environment where users log on to their computer with a user name, password, and
typically a domain. Fast User Switching does not support domain log on. The Fast User Switching
and the Windows* XP Welcome Screen are disabled when Single Sign On support is installed.
