Add Files or Folders to a Distribution Share

After a distribution share folder is created, you can add files to either of the two folders, called $OEM$ Folders or Out-of-Box Drivers. You cannot add packages directly to the Packages folder.

Note

Packages must be added by using the Package(s) option on the Insert menu. For more information, see Import a Package to a Distribution Share.
