Custom extensions provide Live Connect users with a repository for uploading executables to the VSA. Stored executables can then be downloaded and executed during a remote control session using just a single click. This includes 'non-executables' such as MSI installation files and Powershell scripts.
If a remote control session is started, the executable runs under the user account associated with that remote control session.
If a remote control session is not started, the executable runs under the system account.
An executable can also be "run as administrator". In this case the executable is run as a service account, even if a remote control session is in progress.
Procedure
Start a Live Connect session using any agent.
Add a new tab to display the Asset Browser ('Start a new session') window, listing all the machines you are authorized to manage.
Click the "puzzle piece" icon on the far right of the control bar.
Upload executables to the repository. After the upload, the executables display in the Extensions list.
Optionally Execute as RC User. A user must must logged in before this option is clicked to run the executable after it is downloaded to the remote control machine.
Optionally Download executables from the repository to your local machine.
Optionally Delete executables in the repository and remove them from the Extensions list.
