Silent install after first run

Fri Jul 29, 2016 9:10 am

Good morning,

Is it possible to have my installer run through the normal Full UI installer, but afterwards have it install future releases as a silent install.

Is there anyway to have a silent install as an option?

Any help appreciated.

Many thanks!

Bogdan

Hi,

Yes, this is is possible if you are using our auto-updater to deploy the new versions.

When you define a new version as update in the updater configuration file you can specify what command line arguments to be used.

Be careful, if you it to run completely silent and you are installing per machine, when UAC elevation is required, the updater must be launched with admin rights, otherwise the installation will fail.
If you are installing per-user, than there is no need for admin rights when launching the updater.
