RSHUT PRO can be quickly deployed in your network without necessity to walk to PCs installing each computer manually.
To enable this option you should turn on option "Remote deployment" in setup and enter comma separated computer(s) list where you want to remotely install RSHUT PRO. Use computer browse button near edit box to add a computer from your network to this list.
On remote Windows NT/2k/XP RSHUT PRO tries automatically start "Remote Registry" service, on Windows 9x/ME you can only manually install and enable this service.

Furthermore, RSHUT PRO automatically detects local drives where it copies installation files and folders, creates menus and desktop shortcuts. For this it uses "administrative shares" - these are hidden shares with names like "C$", "D$", ... etc. The names of these shares are based on local drive letters on remote computers. These hidden shares may be disabled on computers in your network and if RSHUT PRO can't automatically find these it offers you to enable it temporarily (directly from setup) to continue the installation.
If you confirm - RSHUT PRO remotely enables administrative shares on computers where you have selected to install RSHUT PRO (as soon as installation will be finished - RSHUT PRO will restore previous state of adminstrative shares on all changed computers) and automatically reboots them (it is necessary step in order to get them available). In case any of these operations cannot be performed you will be informed with a special message.
Note: You can enable or disable administarive shares on remote computers using "AutoShare_Enable.reg" and "AutoShare_Disable.reg" files from setup's folder "Support".
Alternatively you can install RSHUT PRO via any other share on remote PC (other than administrative shares). Use the corresponding browse button to select share or enter path manually. In this case RSHUT PRO will not create any shortcut's in Start menu or on Desktop but the program will be installed correctly.
If you have RSHUT PRO license it can be automatically copied and registered on each PC.
To do this - unzip RSHUT PRO distribution package to a temporary folder and copy appropriate license to the installation folder "License" (if you have RSHUT PRO as EXE-file - copy license(s) in the same folder where from you run this installation file) and RSHUT PRO will automatically copy necessary license (depend on installation type: when you install clients - it copies only client's license, when installing servers - it copies server's license).
