Can I reuse the downloaded files from the VS2010 web installer

Question

I installed VS2010 pro using the web installer, but now need to install it on another machine. As this new install will require the same features as my current install, is it possible to reuse the files already downloaded? And if so, how is this achieved?

Answer 1

You might find some tips here. This is for the older VS web installer for the express editions, but perhaps the concepts are the same.
