Settings

Open Settings from the sidebar footer. It is organized into three side-tabs.

General tab #

Default package values #

Field	Description
Default App Script Author	Pre-fills the AppScriptAuthor field in every new package. Leave empty to preserve the toolkit’s own default.
Default Require Admin	Tri-state (Not Defined / True / False). “Not Defined” preserves the toolkit value; True/False overrides it for new packages.
Default Output Folder	Where exported .zip packages are saved in desktop mode. In the desktop app a Browse button opens a native folder picker.

Documentation options — locked in free edition #

Field	Description
Include README.md in exported packages	When enabled, adds a generated README.md with package metadata, parameters, and deployment phases into every exported zip. Locked in free edition.

Package storage — locked in free edition #

Field	Description
Package Storage Path	Sets a central / shared storage location so multiple users can collaborate on the same package workspace. Default: %AppData%\XOAP\PackageWizard. Locked in free edition — the text input and Browse button are displayed but disabled.

The Save Settings button at the top of the page saves General tab values and any pending Package Configuration edits in one action.

PSADT toolkit tab #

Active toolkit for export #

Shows which toolkit will be used for script generation and export:

• Source label — Custom, Bundled, or No Toolkit Available
• Module Version — detected from PSAppDeployToolkit/PSAppDeployToolkit.psd1
• Custom Extensions included — badge shown if PSAppDeployToolkit.Extensions is present
• Refresh — re-queries the server

Below the status card:

• Auto-check for toolkit updates on startup — toggles GitHub version check at startup

Resolution order (top wins):

1. Custom toolkit path (if set and valid) — paid feature (see below)
2. Downloaded toolkit in %AppData%\XOAP\PackageWizard\Toolkit\{tag}\
3. Bundled template shipped with the installer

Download latest from GitHub #

• Large Download Latest PSADT button — fetches the latest release from github.com/PSAppDeployToolkit/PSAppDeployToolkit, extracts it (zip-slip protected), and sets it as the active toolkit
• Displays the latest release tag and an “Update available” badge when applicable

Use custom toolkit — locked in free edition #

Field	Description
Custom path	A folder you control that contains PSAppDeployToolkit/PSAppDeployToolkit.psd1. Useful for custom branding, extensions, and forks.
Set Path	Validates and activates the custom path

Locked in free edition. Both the text input and the button are displayed but disabled.

Package configuration tab #

Reads Config/config.psd1 from the active toolkit and renders each section as a card.

Section	Contents	Editable?
Assets	Icon paths, banner images, company logo	Free: read-only (locked badge) — Paid: editable
MSI	MutexWaitTime, MSI logging verbosity, InstallParamsSilent, LoggingOptions, LogPath, etc.	Free & Paid: editable
Toolkit	Toolkit file name, naming conventions, compression level	Free: read-only (locked badge) — Paid: editable
UI	Dialog defer times, default language, banner height	Free: read-only (locked badge) — Paid: editable

For each field the UI shows:

• The field key (e.g. MSI_LogPath)
• Any comment/description parsed out of the .psd1
• A form control appropriate for the type (text input, number input, or True/False toggle)

Editing a field and clicking Save Settings (top of page) writes the changes back to config.psd1 (with zipslip / path-traversal protection). The signature block, if present, is stripped on save.
