The Configurator tool requires activation with a license file. This file is only available on the Customer Service & Support portal and is located in the same file directory as the FortiClient images. The FortiClient Configurator tool is included with the FortiClient Tools file in FortiClient 5.2. For more information, see the FortiClient XML Reference and the CLI Reference forFortiOS. When deploying a custom FortiClient XML configuration, use the advanced FortiClient Profile options in FortiGate to ensure the FortiClient Profile settings do not overwrite your custom XML settings. When creating VPN only installation files, you cannot enable other modules in the FortiClient Profile as only the VPN module is installed.

Any changes made to the FortiClient Profile are pushed to registered clients. This will allow you to activate any of the modules at a later date without needing to re-install FortiClient. You can also customize which modules are displayed in the FortiClient dashboard in the FortiClient Profile. The FortiClient Configurator tool FortiClient is the recommended method of creating customized FortiClient installation files.
