Back up slide : Optional argumentsArgument Definition
/s Instructs setup.exe to run in silent mode.
/v Passes arguments to MSIexec.exe. Used with command lines for MSIexec.exe; for example, /v”qb+” would
pass the qb+ command to the MSI installer. The commands are surrounded by quotation marks. There is no
space between the /v and the quotation marks.
/qn+ No user interface displayed during the installation of the client except for a modal
dialog box displayed at the end to notify that the installation was completed.
/qb+ User sees progress bar showing status of the installation of the client with a modal dialog box displayed at the
end to notify that the installation was completed. The modal box is not displayed if the user cancels the
installation. Use qb+! or qb!+ to hide the Cancel button.
-d Specifies that installation files are extracted to a temporary directory, from which they are deleted when the
update is complete. -d must be first in the series of arguments. This argument is used when using a
installation kit that is packaged in a single .exe file.
-s Makes the unpacking of the detached kit on the user's computer silent and uses the default locations for the
files it will extract.
-a Passes all arguments to the file that is being launched. For example, -a used in launching a single file
installation kit would pass further arguments to the installer application. Example: -s -a /s /v”qb+” passes the
arguments /s /v ”qb+” to setup.exe
-px or /px Hides the Location To Save Files and Remove Installation Files end user dialog boxes. The behavior of the package is the same as it would have been if the dialog box had been displayed and the end user had clicked Next, accepting all default selections in that dialog box.
