When you resolve a conflict, the exclamation point to the left of the file name
changes from red to white.
To move the selected file to a private directory and change the file path in the
package, click Move. This button is not available if you selected the Do not
move files isolation method.
Note
In most cases, when you move a non-executable file, such as a help file, to an
isolated or private directory, the application still uses the version in the shared
directory. The advantage of using isolation is that the different versions of the
file are saved in the isolated directories and will not be overwritten by other
packages. You can add a shortcut to the application to point to the appropriate
file location.
To use the most recent version of the file for the active package, click Latest. If
one file has a newer version but another has a newer date/time, the Latest File
Selection dialog box appears, where you specify whether to use the file with the
newest modified date or the highest internal version number.
To change the file's component, click Fix Comp.
If the file is a KeyPath to a component in one package but not in another, the
file becomes a KeyPath to its own component.
If the file has extra non-advertising resources, they are moved to a new
component.
If the file's shared .DLL counter is not set, it is set.
If the component has more than one of these issues, a Fix Options dialog box
appears, where you select which actions to take.
To apply a file in the upper list box to a package in the lower list box, select a
file in each list and click Copy Down. The file remains in its current location but
will be used to install the package in the lower list box.
To apply a file in the lower list box to the active package, select a file in each list
and click Copy Up. The file remains in its current location but will be used to
install the package in the upper list box.
To undo changes, click the file and click the upper or lower Revert button,
depending on whether the file is in the upper or lower list box. This resets the
file to the state it was in when you imported the package.
7. Click Next on the File Conflicts page.
The File Conflicts in Registry page appears. The upper list box contains files in the
selected package that have conflicts and are listed in the registry. The lower list box
