EXE example deployment

You can run EXEs with FOG snapins. The arguments would be whatever arguments the EXE itself accepts - this is different for every EXE.

For example an exe called writeAnimals.exe might accept arguments such as -mammals or -continent and might also accept -habitat or -outputFile

If we create a snapin for this EXE using these arguments, it would look something like this:

Snapin Name:

Run the writeAnimals executable

Snapin Storage Group:

Snapin Run With:

Leave Blank

Snapin Run With Argument:

Leave Blank

Snapin File:

writeAnimals.exe

Snapin Arguments:

-mammals -continent 'asia' -habitat 'rainforest' -outputFile C:\mammal_list.txt
