Component question

Guest

Using Target Designer's Search feature (upper left corner, under the menu bar
and the "Filter" dropdown), you can search for a component based on a piece
of its name. For example, searching on "Service" yields hits on "Streaming
Service", "Terminal Services", etc.

What I'm not sure how to do is find a component that includes a particular
file in one of the Repositories. Specifically, the file "bootcfg.exe" is in
the repository "{484C9D34-846E-40E2-A2E6-FF2771A303D5}", which is identified
as "XPE Client Main Free Build Repository". I'm assuming that the fact that
it's in a standard repository (i.e not one created by my custom components)
means that there is a standard component that depends on it and pulls it in
when you add that component.

But how do you find out the name of that component ?

Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks

The component that owns bootcfg.exe is Server Command Line Tools.

You can create a filter in TD to search for "Component that contains the
following file:<filelname>". Be sure the visibility in TD in set to 100 (in
the Options >Advanced menu).
