Background installation and news from the packaging corner

Workshop with
Detlef Oertel (uib gmbh)
Mathias Radtke (uib gmbh)

Part 1: Software installation in the background: workshop report and discussion

Whether it is computers in 24-hour operation, school laptops that are only switched on during lessons or employee laptops that are only ever ‘closed’ but never switched off: Installing software while a user is logged in and possibly working with this software is an increasingly frequent requirement.

This workshop report describes the problems that need to be solved, the paths that others have taken and the path that uib/opsi is planning here - with demonstrations from the experimental lab. In addition to presenting our plans, we would also like feedback on the topic and our plans and hope to find fellow participants for upcoming field beta tests.


Teil 2: News from the Packaging Corner

  • Appx and Msix - what is it and how to install it with opsi (here, we are also happy to learn from other practitioners)
  • New features of the opsi-setup-detector and wishes for further development.
  • Windows installation without PE: ‘Windows WIM Install’ workshop report by M. Radtke
