Use the Modify Catalog dialog box in System Center Updates Publisher to modify the information for the highlighted catalog in the import list. Catalogs that have been added to an import list can be bulk imported in the Import Software Updates Catalog Wizard and automatically checked for newer versions when Updates Publisher opens. The Modify Catalog dialog box is opened from the Import List tab in the Settings dialog box by highlighting a catalog in the import list, and then clicking Edit.

This dialog box contains the following elements:

Choose Path
Specifies the software updates catalog file local drive path, network path, or URL path. For example, c:\MyFolder\MyFile.cab, \\MyServer\MyShare\MyFile.cab, or https://MyServer/MyFile.cab. This path is used to import the catalog file and must be accessible to the user that initiates the import process.
