Using Thin Installer
This section provides information about using Thin Installer.
There are two modes to run Thin Installer:
v GUI mode
– If you execute the Thininstaller.exe file directly, Thin Installer searches for the
update packages from the default repository in the folder where the Thin
Installer package files are unpacked.
– If you execute the Thininstaller.exe file with a repository directory specified as
a parameter, Thin Installer searches for the update packages from the
specified repository.
For example:
Thininstaller.exe -repository C:\MyRepository
The C:\MyRepository folder is the update packages repository.
v Command line mode
The following table shows the command line scripts for Thin Installer. %ANYPATH%
denotes the directory where Thin Installer files are located.
