GPO installation Office Compatability - Newbie

Hi,

I'm creating my first deployment via GPO, I have tested it and it seems to work fine. However, I'm not sure if I need to check the software (Office Compatability) is already installed. Will the system try to install this software each time the computer is logged on or is it clever enough to know the software has already been installed.

Many thanks

Nick

is it clever enough to know the software has already been installed. Yes

Do some reading on Windows Installer (MSDN is a good place to start), its design goals and how it works.
Rating comments in this legacy AppDeploy message board thread won't reorder them,
so that the conversation will remain readable.
