Advanced Settings - Target Platform Tab
In this tab, you can specify the target platform for the CAB package.
The platform settings on this tab are supported only for Windows Mobile
2003 and later devices and, if used, will cause the installation to fail
on older devices. These settings can be used alone or in combination with
the settings from the Operating
System tab, in order to target a post-Windows Mobile 2003 device more
accurately.
Restrict installation to the following platform
Select this option in order to restrict the installation of the CAB package to a specific platform. If this option is left unchecked, all the other settings from this tab are not available.
As mentioned above, this option should be used only when targeting
Windows Mobile 2003 and later devices, as it will cause the installation to fail on
older devices.
Platform
