STEP 1. SAVING DATA FOR REUSE
At this point you can specify which of the data used by the application you want to retain for reuse during the next
installation of the application (e.g., a newer version of the application).
By default, the application is completely removed from the computer.
To save data for reuse:
1. Choose the option Save application objects.
2. Check the boxes for the data types you want to save:
Activation data – data that eliminates the need to activate the application in the future by automatically
using the current license as long as it has not expired by the time of the next installation.
Backup and Quarantine files – files checked by the application and placed into backup storage or
quarantine.
Operational settings of the application – values of the application settings selected during configuration.
iChecker data – files which contain information about the objects that have already been scanned for
viruses.
