Select Files Page

This page enables you to specify which files to use to teach the application.

Important information
  • At least one file must be selected.
  • To select all files, select the check box at the top.
  • Selecting a main file is recommended. Main files identify the application. An application can have multiple main files, but normally there is only one. If a Main file is found, the application is considered present.
