Hello everyone, thank you for this very interesting and powerful software.
My server is running Windows Server 2008 R2, version 1.3.13. My
development machine also has Windows 7 64-bit and 32-bit machines, and Windows 10 64-bit machines.
I have software to install on several machines (SolidWorks 2017). I created an administrative image of my software and a batch script to install it manually on each PC using a USB hard drive. (Installing it over the network takes too long.)
This administrative image is 13 GB in size.
Can WAPT handle such large packages?
If so, how do I manage this size when creating the package?
Sincerely.

Hello

, whether you're using version 1.3 or 1.5, there's no size limit that Wapt can handle.

In fact, we've already implemented SolidWorks.

However, you might encounter some issues.

The preshutdowntimeout:

This option is enabled by default in 1.5.

Indeed, SolidWorks will likely take more than 15 minutes to install. You'll need to be careful!

Then, the upload might cause problems:

There are fewer issues in 1.5, but if you're using Wapt version 1.3:
