The following lists some of the most common properties in the Extra! MSI file, many of which are used to set default values for installation and global options.
They can be edited in the MSI file, specified on the command line, or passed in by way of a transform file (MST). If installation values are not specified and the installation dialog boxes are suppressed, the factory default values are used.
