Appendix C – Rebrand FortiClient
The FortiClient Configurator can be used to create custom FortiClient MSI installers with various combinations. The customized MSI installer generated may be used to install FortiClient on all supported platforms using Active Directory. A FortiClient setup executable file is also generated for manual distribution.
Under Options, you can select to enable software updates, configure the single sign-on mobility agent, and rebrand FortiClient. Rebranding allows you to edit various UI elements including graphics.
When replacing files in the resource folder, the replacement file should be the same file type and dimensions. Icons (.ico) are a special case. The Main_icon.ico file for example, is a composite file of multiple icons. The operating system picks the appropriate icon size from this file for the context in which the icon is being displayed.
