Re: Manage Distribution Points Wizard ? - what is it

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Right Click on the Package and choose Manage Distribution Points. This will
bring up the correct wizard. The wizard allows you to do much more than
Update the package. As for the client, it will not retry the program as the
error it recieved was viewed as an unrecoverable error. I am not sure what
the error message really is as 2147516932 translates to 80008204 which is an
AD error message.
