Once created, users will be able to double-click Setup.exe file for the software available in the deployment image to install the application with the set configuration without the need of any user interaction or internet connection for component downloads. The deployment image can be shared in the network.

The deployment image contains all the files that are packaged with the product as well as the downloadable files, including Companion Features and Applications. It may optionally contain external applications or packages that can be add or removed while creating the deployment image which may be pre-requisites for the software.
