We are using MDT to image the clients and deploy our applications during the task sequence. One .exe application needs to manually click the Next button even if I add the silent parameter to the install command line as: Setup.exe /s. How to install this .exe application silently?

    Hi,

    Thanks for posting in Microsoft MECM Q&A forum.

    1,Please run the command Setup.exe /s manually to check if it will install your application silently. Please try the /silent, /s, /quiet, /q, /qn, /verysilent command because the silent switches can vary for different .exe applications. For more information, please refer to:

    Unattended install

    2,You can also try the Universal Silent Switch Finder to find the silent switch for your .exe application.
