Upload files for installation

For example, if you want to install software on the master desktop, but Internet access is switched OFF and must remain so, uploading and providing files is an option.

The deskMate system automatically converts files <500 MB into an ISO format that can be mounted on the desktops. Files >500 MB must be converted to an ISO format before uploading. You can find tools for this on the Internet.

As a user with admin rights, you can upload individual files in the “Desktops|Media/Images” area. If several files have to be uploaded, it is advisable to pack them into one file (zip, rar,…) beforehand.

As soon as the file has been uploaded, it can be selected in the Advanced menu of the running desktop in the “General” submenu and presented to the desktop as a file in the CD drive.

The “CD” can also be “ejected” there. The “CD” is automatically ejected when the desktop system is shut down.
