How do I include an Inventor addin with a deployment

[karthur1]

I have an addin that works with inventor.  I would like to include this with my deployment so that it gets installed when the deployment is ran.

To get this to work, I have to manually add a file to the C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\Inventor 2014\Addins folder and also add one file to the C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Inventor 2014\Bin folder.

How would be the best way to get this to be included with the deployment?

Thanks

The only thing that I can think of is to create a batch script and copy the files to the folder.

....and include the batch in the deployment under the "Additional software" node?  That is what I was thinking, but wanted to make sure there was not another way.
