•
The feature is installed on the local drive: By default, the feature will be installed on the local drive during

The feature is run from source, CD, or the network: By default, the feature will be run from the source,
whether it be from the installation CD or from the network.
•
The feature is advertised: By default, the feature will be advertised, but not installed. Essentially, this is an
on-demand option; a shortcut will be created during setup, and if the shortcut is clicked, the feature will
then be installed from the source. This ensures features that may be unnecessary are not installed until
they are needed, if ever. For more information, see
