Configure the Pub Manager Autocomplete behavior in the TD installation

Our team doesn't use the default baseline behavior in Pub Manager - AutocompleteWithLatest.

Normally, we configure this locally by setting the behavior to None on the local machine. This enables us to work on several pub version simultaneously.

This is prone to issues, if a writer has to reinstall their client tools and forgets to configure Pub Manager.

Can you provide a mechanism to configure this on the CMS servers, so that users download the preferred settings, when they install their client tools.

  • Thank you Tatyana for the idea
    There is a technical approach that you can use to achieve the desired behavior

    You can create a Powershell script that will run Publication Manager.msi and after that modify its configuration file 
    Location: %LOCALAPPDATA%\RWS\InfoShare Client\%VERSION%\trisoft.infoshare.config

    Configuration option to modify: <autoCompleteBehavior>WithLatestAvailableVersions</autoCompleteBehavior>
