Procedure example of an installation with the PCU Installer

The following example describes the activities of the PCU Installer if you have stored a setup
file on a removable disk or network drive after the activation and configuration of the PCU
Installer.
In this procedure example, it is assumed that you have already performed the following steps:
● You have activated the PCU Installer
● You have activated the checking of the network directories in the settings of the PCU
Installer and defined an additional setup directory on a network drive.
In the example: F:\Setup with F: as network drive.
● You have stored a setup file in this additional setup directory (e.g. F:\Setup\Update.exe).
● The setup directory is not write-protected.
Example: Activities of the PCU Installer during installation of a network drive
● The defined setup directories are checked.
● The Update.exe file is found in the F:\Setup directory.
As the Update.exe file has not been installed yet, there is no setup-specific log file in the
directory.
● The Update.exe file is copied to a local temporary directory, e.g. D:\Install39\Update.exe
