You create or load Setup configuration files using Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2013 Setup. You can directly edit these XML files.

Setup configuration files contain two types of settings.

For silent installs, this parameter is not relevant. State There are two possible values: Local, indicates that the component is included in the install, and Absent indicates that the component is not included. Id Identifies the component You can change value for State or ShowOptionNode, but not for Id. Also, you cannot add or remove a component.
Parameter	These settings contain configuration information for components. As with Components, you can modify a parameter’s Value, but not its Id. For information about values for pre-configuring Microsoft Dynamics NAV components using a Setup configuration file, see Configuring Microsoft Dynamics NAV.
