My application has gotten quite large. Therefore, to minimize download time, I have some optional files that are not required for the program. (i.e. Help, Sample Data)

I would like the user to download an initial install file, then during that install, be prompted to see what optional components they would like to download/install. Depending on their response, additional files would be downloaded and installed.

Whats the best way to accomplish this?

Use a checkbox screen for them to pick which pieces they want. Using a series of IF statements examine the check values and conditionally execute the Download file HTTP action.
