Desktop Settings Filter

User State > Define Package > Edit

The Desktop Settings Filter dialog box specifies a set of system settings, application settings and a local user account. The desktop settings filter is applied to a source machine to create a desktop standard package using Define Package. The same desktop settings filter can be applied to multiple source machines to create multiple desktop standard packages.

Note: If a target machine doesn't use a particular setting, the setting is ignored during deployment.
