File information
The English version of this feature has the file attributes (or later file attributes) that are listed in the following table. The dates and times for these files are listed in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). When you view the file information, it is converted to local time. To find the difference between UTC and local time, use the Time Zone tab in the Date and Time item in Control Panel.



Feature installation instructions
The feature installer puts files on the destination computer. You must manually replace the existing CSF files by using the files from the feature. To do this, follow these steps:
 * 1) Close all the IDM MMC applications.
 * 2) Copy the Idmsnapin.dll file to the  :\Program Files\Microsoft CSF\V3.0\Management\Identity Manager folder.

Note Before you install the feature, the IDM MMC displays the service key for a service catalog instead of the binding key. Additionally, before you install the feature, the application description is not displayed correctly when you add a secondary credential to an application.
