Repair instance

  • Hi Experts,

    What exactly happens when we try to repair the instance using the REPAIR option under maintenance in Installation.

    Thanks in Advance

  • just like the repair for any other item that was installed with windows insaller:

    reviews any dll's , exe's or ocx's, as well as files for differences in the saved .msi and what is currently installled, and replaces them if they don't match/CRC doesn't match.;

    i believe the isntaller alos looks at version numbers, so if something appears to have a higher version, (ie it was patched), it gets skipped.

    Lowell
