Ok so I have a WiseScript that all works. except for one portion. on a install file. My 2 other install files work but they are direct .exe... this one is a folder and all subfolders. looks like it is going to start but then fails... cant figure out why. It also creates a ton of backup wse files... w02-.w025 anything you can think of or seen that before where all these files get created? every backup wse file is 1,420k and so is the .exe which should actually be 100mb... so this is WiseScript 12 so I used installation expert to bring all the files in... it created individual lines.. seems the issue is with java.. .class or .java anyone see this before? ...

OK so WiseScript was from Wise Package Studio bought by Altiris then sold to Symantec now Flexera... so long story short... if I want to get away from WiseScript as it is not being updated... what is there equivalent I can start learning? So many apps in the InstallShield 2014 and AdminStudio 2014 I cant figure it out... example I want do to this stuff... https://community.flexerasoftware.com/showthread.php?205246-WiseScript-Package-Editor-my-first-script&p=485719 ...

Ok this "Works" but just curious if I went about this the correct way? Since I need to figure this kind of stuff out, would be nice to get the hang and understand it better. This was an easy task. We utilize Altiris 7.1 SP2 MP1 and have since added Symantec System Recovery 2011 Management Option. We have various sites and they want the ability to do a C: backup or All Drive Backup. This is easy.. you create 1 filter for each of those options but the trick is to have as little administration as possible. We do a custom inventory this way. You just simply add a regkey to the machine and inventory it up into Altiris then create dynamic filters off the Tech's Choices. so easy.. hklm\software\bmsssr key with 2 keys ssrdrive and ssrserver but there are 32 and 64bit machines. can you see anything that is redundant or not needed? like i said this works.just looking to see if i could of had it any cleaner.. oh and the REM is just for reference.. i know they are not needed and would get the script smaller..
