When I assign a Software Installation policy with an MSI file, does the
GPO check to see if that software is already installed then not install
it again or does the policy install the program every time the computer
restarts? Also, if it checks to see if the program is installed, does
that take a long time? I can't remember how it functions.
The reason I ask is because I don't want the computers taking a long
time to start due to the GPO so if I need to, I can use the GPO in a
staging OU, then take it out of that OU once it's deployed. Or are
there other ways around this?
