All of the ICEs in the specified .cub file will be executed during validation except for the ICEs listed here.
Changing the Default Validation File
By default, ConflictSolver compares packages against the full set of Microsoft ICEs. In the overwhelming majority
of cases, this is the file you will want ConflictSolver to use when performing validation. However, there may be
times you want to compare your base package against a different validation file, depending on your needs.

Suppressing Warnings and Informational Messages
To suppress Warnings and Informational Messages from being displayed in the Validate tab of the Output window
during validation, you can clear the Warnings and Info check boxes on the
Options dialog box. It is strongly recommended you do not suppress warning messages so you can ensure proper
validation of packages before importing them into ConflictSolver.
