Please see my answer to Adam regarding this. You don't need to increment
the version to make sure a package is verified/re-installed. Just define

This will force the package to be re-installed ALWAYS - no matter if
that version (or any other) is already installed. This is not
recommended. I use it only for one single package - the WPKG XML backup

Hi both,
First of all the package should contain some checks. The package below
checks for existence of the seamonkey.exe file. If it does not exist,
then WPKG will re-install the package (at least 1.0+ versions of WPKG).
Sure you need to run the wpkg.js script using a user which has belongs

aking of the account logged into the system I am executing
the command on?
Don't know what you mean by increment by 1.

Can WPKG install software while a user is logged into and working from their
desktop instead of when a user machine is booting up? This would help
tremendously when a user doesnt have a network connection on a initial boot.
