This article was previously published under Q112614



SYMPTOMS
When you choose to add or remove Windows components within the Windows Setup program, the Add/Remove Windows Components selection under Options is unavailable.



CAUSE
This option is unavailable if an administrative setup has been performed. The purpose of an administrative setup (one in which the /A and /N options are used) is to configure a workstation to run Windows from a shared directory.

Because Windows is being run from a shared directory, the Add/Remove Windows option is intentionally unavailable to keep users from deleting files that are used by others.
