Windows Agent Installers

To add a Windows installer in OptiTune, click on the "Computers and Groups" tab, select "Agent Setup", and under "Windows Agent Installer" click "Add". To edit an installer, click on its name, or click on its checkbox and then click "Edit".

Fill in the following information about the custom installer, and click "Save". Note that only "Name" and "Description" are required, the rest are optional fields. Once you click "Save", you will be brought back to the Agent Setup page. It often takes 10-30 seconds to generate the installer, and you will see the progress here. When the custom installer is ready, a link will be shown to download the installer.
