You can install the Advanced Open File Option (AOFO) using silent mode on a remote computer using the Windows command line. Silent mode runs the installation operation without the benefit of a user interface.
The AOFO files are installed on the remote computer in the following directory:
\Program Files\Symantec\Backup Exec\RAWS
The AOFO installation log file is created in the following directory:
\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Symantec\Backup Exec\Logs\rawsinst.htm
On Windows 7/Vista/Server 2008 R2/Server 2008 the AOFO installation log file is created in the following directory:
\ProgramData\Symantec\Backup Exec\Logs\rawsinst.htm
