Parameter
Description
Allow Non Admin to Modify Profiles
Specifies whether a user without administrator privileges can change the profiles. Only the Windows NT, the Windows 2000, or the Windows XP operating system supports this option.
Note To avoid conflicting settings, check Allow Non-Administrative Users to Save Settings to the Registry under the ACU on the Installed Components tab.
Note This option is not available for Windows 95, 98, and Me because these versions of Windows do not support different classes of users.
Range: yes or no
Default: yes
Allow Edit Profile
Specifies whether or not the ACU can be used to edit a client adapter configuration profile.
Note When this parameter is set to no, the ACU does not allow the user to edit, import, or export profiles and the ACAT's Allow Export Profile and Allow Import Profile settings are ignored by the ACU.
Range: yes or no
Default: yes
Allow Export Profile
Specifies whether or not the ACU can be used to export a client adapter configuration profile to a disk file.
Range: yes or no
Default: yes
Allow Import Profile

Existing Profiles
Specifies how the existing profiles are handled on the PC during the installation process.
Range: Delete, Overwrite, or Preserve
•Delete—All existing profiles are deleted prior to installing any new profiles.
•Overwrite—Any existing profile with the same name as a new profile is overwritten. All other existing profiles are maintained and all new profiles are installed.

Silent Setup
Specifies whether the Install Wizard installation process is silent without requiring user input.

When Do not reboot is selected, the installation process does not display a prompt message and waits for you to reboot the PC.
