2. What is TGUP ?
===================

TGUP refers to The Great Unattended Project.
TGUP is an executable Package that downloads and installs commonly-used freeware silently
in sequence and sorts them into the startmenu (without user interaction).
A manual selection of Applications is also possible.
TGUP is mainly based on the self-composed batch script that controls the Package contents.

*****************************************************************************************

3. How it works? / How to Use?
===============================

1. After TGUP is a executed, the package contents are extracted into the defualt Temp Folder.
2. TGUP compares available Applications on my server with those installed on your System.
3. WIHU is started, by default all not installed Applications on the system are selected.
4a. The Countdown begins, if no user intercation happens during the given time,
  WIHU continues to next installation step.
4b. If the user interacts by selecting or deselcting Applications from the WIHU Menu,
  the countdown stops. Thus The User has the ability to make manual selections.
5. At the next installation step, the latest versions of the selected Applications are downloaded
  from their official servers and are then installed silently on the system.
6. The Applications are sorted into different Categories into the Startmenu.
7. Finally CleanUp begins deleting the Temp Folder again.
  Please Notice that CleanUp is not an Application,
  it will just empty your Temp Folder again after the installation is finished,
  so please keep it selected.

*****************************************************************************************
