Sometimes, you may want to execute a program or a script each time WPKG runs (for example, to clean up a temp directory, synchronize time etc.).

To do this, use execute="always".


Another approach is when you want to execute a program or a script only once (for example, you want to remove a directory, set up permissions, or you're unable to produce any file or registry check).

To do this, use execute="once".

Below, an example for execute="always":

   <package
id="time"
name="Time Synchonization"
execute="always">
<install cmd="net time \\timeserver /set /yes" />
</package>
