Unattended MSI ??

Mon Aug 09, 2021 6:42 pm

Hello good afternoon, I have a question with this product, in the company where I work, we need to install an MSI file in all our workstations which asks for administrator permissions, for security reasons we cannot send users these permissions. Could your tool help us to convert the MSI that requires permissions into an unattended MSI (that does not require administrator permissions) ????

Hello,

To achieve what you need you can use our Updater tool to deploy (without elevation) updates for your MSI setup.

This feature will install updates packages without elevation even on standard (non-admin) user accounts.

The only limitation would be that the first version of your MSI package (that includes our Updater tool) have to be installed by an admin user account.

Have a look over our Handle updates without elevation article to get a starting point for how this feature works.

Hope this helps! If you have any other questions please don't hesitate to contact us.

Best regards,
Liviu
