I was looking for a script or a wrapper that I could build logic into so when the user’s request software they don’t need to know if they have a partition. The “script” would look for a partition if it’s there it would install on the d drive, if not it would install on the C drive. Maybe I’m not explaining what I am looking for very well…..

Unfortunately way to many machines to redo, they will have to be phased out slowly over time. So for now we need to find a reasonable solution.

Non-standardization is the root of many/most issues in IT environments.

We currently have Windows 7 and Windows 8.1 in our environment. Some of the Windows 8.1 have 2 partitions some do not. Rather than package everything twice I would like to come up with a script or some type of logic to determine if the partition is present and depending on that where to install the software. Any suggestions or does anyone have a script or something else I could look at to get some ideas?
