Setup File Distribution

Silent installation for automated deployment

Overview

You can use /VERYSILENT to disable the installation progress window. There are no messages during installation. This allows you to install FTP Synchronizer automatically.

Silent Installation Command

To perform a silent installation, run the setup with the /VERYSILENT parameter:

ftpsync-pro-setup.exe /VERYSILENT

Use Cases

  • Mass Deployment: Install FTP Synchronizer across multiple computers automatically
  • Group Policy: Deploy via Active Directory Group Policy
  • Scripting: Include in installation scripts
  • Remote Deployment: Install on remote machines without user interaction
  • Unattended Installation: Schedule installation during off-hours

Batch File Example

Create a batch file to automate installation:

@echo off
echo Installing FTP Synchronizer...
ftpsync-pro-setup.exe /VERYSILENT
echo Installation complete!
pause

PowerShell Example

Use PowerShell for more advanced deployment scenarios:

# Silent installation using PowerShell
$setupPath = "C:\Deploy\ftpsync-pro-setup.exe"
Start-Process -FilePath $setupPath -ArgumentList "/VERYSILENT" -Wait
Write-Host "Installation completed successfully."

Additional Parameters

Along with /VERYSILENT, you can use other installation parameters:

  • /DIR="path" - Specify installation directory
  • /SILENT - Silent but with progress bar
  • /NORESTART - Prevent automatic restart
  • /COMPONENTS="component1,component2" - Select components to install

Important Notes

  • Silent installation requires Administrator privileges
  • Ensure the setup file is accessible on target machines
  • Test installation on a sample machine first
  • Verify installation was successful before mass deployment
  • Check firewall and security policies may block setup execution
