This Wiki article describes the installation of Securepoint Antivirus Pro as a silent installation with command line parameters.
Installation with the wizard is described in another article].
Last adaptation to the version: 3.2.20 (12.2020)
- New:
- Removed parameters for the deactivation of updates
Preamble
The installation can be performed via the so-called unattended installation from the command line (also called silent installation). This installation provides additional configuration options.
This form of installation is intended exclusively for advanced users and system administrators.
Silent Installation
Silent installation can only be executed from the Windows command prompt (cmd.exe).
- For the Silent Installation administrators rights are required!
The correct syntax for the silent installation is:
msiexec /l* SetupLog.txt /i SetupAV.msi PROPERTY=''value'' /q
The parameter /l* SetupLog.txt for the logfile of the setup is not mandatory. Instead of SetupAV.msi an absolute path can also be used (e.g. C:\setup\setup.msi). If no absolute path is provided, the current folder in the CMD window must be the one containing the setup file.
The syntax PROPERTY=value is important. The Property must be written in capital letters and no spaces are allowed within the properties (e.g. PROPERTY=value). The order of the PROPERTIES is unimportant. An example for a valid and correct syntax would be:
msiexec.exe /l* setuplog.txt /i SetupAV.msi TID="0000.." ACCEPTLICENSEAGREEMENT="yes" ACCEPTPRIVACYPOLICY="yes" PROXY="192.168.175.1:8080" /q
