Hi and welcome to Advanced Installer.

Thank you for your interest in Advanced Installer.

You can deploy an MSI package created with Advanced Installer Pro silently via GPO by following the method described in our Deploying a MSI through GPO tutorial.

Although, it is not possible to create an MSI silent package because Windows Installer does not permit this, but as you can see in the above tutorial, this is not necessary.

Let us know if it helped, otherwise give us more details about your scenario.

Best regards,

Dear All;

I can deploy software via GPO but when end user logon required do something like click Next or OK.

Can I create msi package for run automatically, no need end user do anything? Or you have another solution?

Thanks & Best Regards,

Hi,

As it is explained in the above tutorial, there are two methods of deployment through GPO: Assign Software and Publish Software.

If you use the "Assign Software" method, the MSI package will be installed automatically when the user logs on, but without showing any dialog.

If you user the "Publish Software" method, then the user will be able to install it from Control Panel.

Best regards,

Hi Eusebiu,

When I install software via GPO by Assign Software method, it required user must chose "Next" to continue install.

Hi,

If the application does not get installed automatically after you restart the computer, it might be a problem on your machine. Probably something similar to the issue described in the Packages Assigned to Computers with Group Policy Are Not Installed article.

By default, when the "Assign Software" method is used the package is installed automatically.
