NOTE: Admins are presented with choices to invalidate previously downloaded config files, as whenever an Admin downloads a **new** TruUInstallerBundle, a new config file is created. The Admin must remember to invalidate the old clients to prevent further usage when new config files are created. This option is seen in the screenshot below:
