Title: Update RailClone Libraries for different/all users?
Post by: Hayes Davidson on January 26, 2018, 10:37:14 AM
Hi

I'm trying to deploy RailClone libraries to all machines in our studio, workstations and render nodes.  I've followed the silent installation instructions in the documentation, but as the library is installed in the user's app data folder, I'm stumped when it comes to deploying it for all the users in the studio - I need to use an admin account to have permission to run the installation and copy the files, but don't want to install the libraries in the admin account's app data folder.  As there are probably 30 different users logged on across the studio, who will no doubt move to different computers from time to time, I want to avoid having to do each computer individually.

Is there a way of installing to all users logged onto the computer, or better yet is there not a single global location that the libraries can be installed to so that any user can access?

Thanks in advance for the help.

Dan

Hi Dan,

There are several options. You can find these under the "To use unattended installation (https://docs.itoosoft.com/railclone/installation-files/update-manager#UpdateManager-Touseunattendedinstallation)" section. You might find useful the way described in this "Installing RailClone 3 assets in a shared network path (https://forum.itoosoft.com/faq-18/installing-railclone-3-assets-in-a-shared-network-path/)" FAQ post. Hope that helps.

Best regards,

Thanks Michal.  That second post you've linked to looks promising.  I'll look into this next week.
