Feature Request

I confirm:

  • [ ] that I haven't found another request for this feature.
  • [x] that I have checked whether there are updates for my system available that
    contain this feature already.

Description

  • We need a way to run install.vdf files whenever we want from the client to add the required registry fields.
  • Make the option user-friendly and call the option "rerun installation script" under context menu > manage.

Justification [optional]

  • Sometimes running the script fails and the only option is to reinstall or add those registry keys manually.
  • Sometimes the registry entries are lost or corrupted.

Risks [optional]

none that I can see, in case of power loss just rerun the installation script 😆

References [optional]
