1. AVGPREP Program

AVGPREP 9.0 is a program intended primarily for administrators of large networks who

may need to clone the computer’s preset configuration to many PCs at once. This can

be performed with use of the Sysprep tool.

The AVG license number is restricted to one computer only. During cloning the saved

license data saved is devalued, and the AVG on the target stations reports the license

number to be invalid.

To avoid this problem use the AVGPREP 9.0 program. Before you start cloning the

default configuration of the source computer with the help of Sysprep, it is necessary

to use the AVGPREP 9.0 program that creates a temporary avgprep.dat file, and with

its use secures the automatic license correction on the target stations.

2. The Process of Cloning

If you want to clone the configuration of a computer to more PCs without re-

registering every AVG installation on the target stations, follow these steps:

2.1. Setting the default AVG configuration

Set the complete configuration intended for cloning on the source computer. The

target stations will be installed with exactly the same settings, and the AVG license

number used for the source station installation will be copied to all target stations!

2.2. Using the AVGPREP program

The AVGPREP 9.0 program is available on the AVG installation CD, or you can

download it from this section of the AVG website.

To launch AVGPREP 9.0 use the program’s executable file. You can launch it either

directly with the specific parameter (simply use the last four characters of the license

number without a slash or a dash), or in the interactive mode where you will be invited

to specify the last four characters of the license number. Program will close

automatically.

Run the AVGPREP 9.0 program to create the avgprep.dat temporary file into the %

allusersprofile%\Avg9 directory. The AVGPREP 9.0 program functionality is conditioned

by the AVG installation (with the valid license number) on the source computer.

To avoid the AVGPREP 9.0 program misapplying, it is necessary to enter the last four

characters of the current license number (or the complete license number) to be able

to create the avgprep.dat file. The generated file is then used in fully automatic

mode, and the administrator does not have to deal with it any more.

2.3. Using the Sysprep Tool

With the help of Sysprep (or an alternative tool) create the source computer image (

image of your disk), and clone its configuration to the target stations. Once the image

is cloned to the target computers, the ProductId changes, and the AVG licenses will

be automatically corrected using the avgprep.dat file, and the file itself will be

removed.
