Use the existing Virtual OS file
Mark this if you previously ran the Virtual OS File Creation utility on the current
computer. When you click Next, the Virtual OS is cleaned. This means that installed
remnants from the last capture are removed from the Virtual OS directory and
registry structure.
This option is unavailable if no Virtual OS is found on this computer.
Use a different Virtual OS file from share point directory or network
Mark this if you previously ran the Virtual OS Creation utility on another computer
and the resulting file is available in the share point directory or in a network
directory. Then specify the .WOS file to use. When you click Next, the Virtual OS file
you specified is expanded onto your computer as a Virtual OS directory and registry
structure. This process takes several minutes and requires a substantial amount of
free disk space.
