The Component Installed for Product MSI rule is used when creating or modifying custom updates in the Custom Updates Publishing Tool. Most often it is used as a prerequisite type rule. The specified MSI information about the product and component is verified with what is found on the client. If the rule does not pass verification, the custom update is considered not needed on the client. The Component Installed for Product rule has the following configuration settings:
- Product Code: Specifies one or more product GUIDs that
are associated with the components configured in the Component
Code field. At least one configured product code must be
associated with at least one configured component for the rule to
be verified on the client. Click Add to specify each product
code. At least one product code is required. To require that all
configured products have at least one configured component, click
All Products Required.
- Component Code: Specifies one or more component GUID
that are associated with the products configured in the Product
Code field. Click Add to specify the component code. At
least one component code is required. To require at least one
product to have all of the configured components, click All
Components required. When All Products Required and
All Components required are enabled, all configured products
must have all of the configured components.
