Automatic Version Synchronization
On this page of the Internet Explorer 7 Customization Wizard, the Setup file for Internet Explorer 7 is downloaded to your computer to the location that you specify. The download contains both the full and express packages and the language that you specified earlier in the Internet Explorer 7 Customization Wizard. Automatic Version Synchronization runs each time you run the wizard.
There are two types of versioning used by Internet Explorer Administration Kit: versioning of the custom package and versioning of Internet Explorer itself. For the first type, each Internet Explorer package that you create is assigned a version number and versioning can be enforced so that older packages are not allowed to overwrite newer versions of the same package. Automatic Version Synchronization addresses the second type — versioning for Internet Explorer.
Note
You may be prompted with a security warning before the Setup file is downloaded.
