Windows Vista support
BlueZone has undergone third-party testing to become Microsoft Certified for Windows Vista. This means that BlueZone passed
all of the tests to ensure smooth installation and operation, as well as a user experience consistent with the Windows Vista
operating system. Some of the hallmarks of Windows Vista include User Access Control, Protected Mode, and the ActiveX Installer
Service. The following guide describes using BlueZone with Windows Vista.
|
• |
BlueZone is installed using the Microsoft Installer (MSI). |
|
• |
BlueZone uses the permissions As-Invoker when running and does not require administrator permission to perform any regular BlueZone function.
|
|
• |
Installing for All Users under an administrator account is recommended. |
|
• |
BlueZone configuration files, scripts, macros, etc. can be deployed with the BlueZone MSI automatically by including them
in the BlueZone installation source directory image. Refer to Creating a distribution image for more information.
|
|
• |
All user files are written to All Users\Application Data\BlueZone\ at installation time.
|
|
• |
On first run, BlueZone copies the files from All Users\Application Data\BlueZone\ to the end user's working directory.
|
|
• |
At runtime, BlueZone compares the files in the end user's working directory to those in All Users and updates the end user's working directory with any new files found in All Users\Application Data\BlueZone\.
