 <h1>Install Configuration view</h1>

 <p>The Install Configuration view, which is part of the Install/Update
  perspective, allows you to manage your workspace configuration. The
  <b>Current Configuration</b> folder shows which local installation locations are
  part of the workspace configuration, and which features are installed in those
  locations. The <b>Configuration History</b> folder shows a history of changes made to your
  workspace configuration. The <b>Saved Configurations</b> folder show any configurations
  that were preserved (typically representing a stable configuration that
  can be used as a base to recover to).
 </p>

 <p>Here is what the Install Configuration view looks like:</p>
