Configuring custom products 37 Working with custom products Working with custom products In the Symantec Packager main window, the Configure Products tab lists the product configuration files that you have created and provides information about when they were last built and modified. In this window, you can create, edit, and delete product configuration files and view details. The Configure Products tab displays the product and command configuration files that are stored in the Configure Products folder that is specified in Symantec Packager Preferences. The Configure Products tab might be empty if you have not imported any product modules. When you import a product module, Symantec Packager creates a default product configuration file and places it on the Configure Products tab. See "Importing product modules" on page 32.
