Copy If Does Not Exist: Copies the contents of the directory only if the files does not
currently exist on the workstation.
Copy If Newer: Copies the contents of the directory only if the modified date and time of the
file is newer than the existing file's date and time, or if the files does not currently exist on the
workstation.
Copy If Newer and Exists: Copies the contents of the directory only if it already exists on the
workstation and the date and time of the file is newer than the existing file's date and time.
Copy if Newer Version: Copies the contents of the directory only if the internal version of the
file is newer than the existing file's version (if version information is present).
Request Confirmation: Prompts the user to verify that the contents of the directory should be
copied.
Copy If Different: Copies the contents of the directory if the creation date, creation time, or
size of the file is different than the existing file's date, time, or size.
Executable Security Level: Click More Options to specify the executable security level options.
On Windows 2000/XP/Vista, the application executable can run in either the "user" space or the
"system" space. By default, the Run normal option is selected, which causes the application to run in
the "user" space and inherit the same workstation security level as the logged-in user.
If the logged-in user's security level does not provide sufficient rights and file access to run the
application, you can configure the application to run in the "system" space or as a dynamic
administrator, as described below:
Run as logged in user: The action uses the logged-in user's credentials. For example, the
action has the same rights to the registry and the file system as the logged-in user.
Run as secure system user (Don't allow system to interact with desktop): The application
is run under the Local System user and inherits Administrator-level credentials. For example,
the application has full rights to the registry and the file system. Because the security level is
set to Secure, the application's interface is not displayed to the user and the application is only
visible in the Task Manager. This option is useful when running applications that require full
access to the workstation but require no user intervention.
Run as dynamic administrator: A dynamic administrator is an administrator account that is
created on the fly to perform certain procedures, such as installing applications. Using a
dynamic administrator is helpful when installing applications (some MSI applications, for
example) that cannot be installed in the system space. When you select this action, the dynamic
administrator is created, it performs the required tasks, and then the account is deleted.
NOTE: Performing this action as dynamic administrator on a Windows domain controller fails
because Microsoft does not allow the use of local administrator accounts on domain
controllers.
