Example:
-Config ConfigFile.ini is optional. The configuration file specifies directories or registry subkeys for
exclusion from the project. If you do not specify a configuration file, ThinApp uses the snapshot.ini file.
Snapshot Template.ini –GenerateProject C:\MyProject Snapshot Template.ini –GenerateProject
C:\MyProject –Config MyExclusions.ini
Displaying the Contents of a Snapshot File
The snapshot.exe utility lists the contents of the snapshot file.
Usage
snapshot.exe SnapshotFileName.snapshot -Print
