Configuring Repackager to Ensure Optimal Installation Capture

Installing Repackager on a Clean Machine

It is essential that you repackage applications on a "clean" system to ensure you capture all changes made by the
installation. A clean system typically consists of a computer with only the operating system and necessary service
packs installed on it. It is the baseline system that the computer requires to run.
While you want to avoid installing applications on the clean machine, if the clean machine does not have network
connectivity to an installation of Repackager (which is required in order to run Repackager remotely), you have to
install Repackager locally on a clean machine by running the Repackager installation.
To install a standalone version of Repackager on a clean machine, perform the following steps.
