Installation modes
You can run the Security Center Installer in two modes:
- Wizard mode
- The installation wizard guides you through installing Security Center using a series of
questions. There are two versions of the installer:
- Web version
- The web version downloads the components that you choose to install from the
internet. This installer version has a small footprint because only the components
that you need are downloaded. To run the web installer, download the file
SecurityCenterWebSetup.exe from GTAP and double-click
it.
At the beginning of the installation, you can create a custom installation bundle that includes only the components that you need for your installation. This bundle is meant to replicate the current installation on computers with the same Windows setup.
NOTE: To create the custom installation bundle, you must select this option while you are installing or upgrading Security Center. After the version you want has been installed, you cannot re-run the web setup to create the custom bundle. - Standard version
- Use the standard version if your computer is not connected to the internet. This large installer includes everything that you might need in the installation package. To run the standard installer, download the full installation package from GTAP, copy the package to the target computer, and double-click setup.exe found in the root folder of the package.
- Silent mode
- The silent mode is used to run the installer from the command line, without user intervention.
Installer languages
The Security Center Installer is available in English and French, but the Security Center software can be installed in more than twenty different languages. You can select the language of the installer from within the wizard.
