Version

Install Drive

Install Path

Post Install Options

Options for if the device will perform a warm boot or a cold boot after installation has completed, or if a program runs as soon as installation is completed. When you select to run a program, the drop-down list will become active and you can select the program from your package to run. Post-install actions are optional.
