Setting rollback preferences

Use the rollback feature to revert an updated package back to a previous version. To complete the rollback, Installation Manager requires information from the earlier version of the package. Some packages do not support rollback.

When Installation Manager rolls a package back to a previous version, it uninstalls the current version of some files and reinstalls the previous version of those files. By default, the files that are needed to complete the rollback are saved on your computer. On the Files for Rollback preference page, you can change the default action and remove any previously stored files.

To set rollback preferences:

  1. Open the Rollback preferences page by selecting File > Preferences > Files for Rollback
  2. Select Save file for rollback to save on your computer a copy of files that are needed to roll back packages.
  3. Click Delete Saved Files to delete all saved files. If you delete the files and you need to roll back a package, , you will need to connect to your old repository or insert the media for the previous version of the package to obtain the require files.
