Below is a list of silent install, upgrade and uninstall configurations. If you have your own, please share them with us by posting them here as new pages and linking them to this category. (Click here for help)


Silent installers for Windows Hotfixes (KB*) are listed here.


You can also change Windows settings with WPKG.


For silent installers not listed here, see AppDeploy.com or the Unattended project (but please remember to come back here and write up a packages.xml entry after you do so). A WPKG user's list of packages is also available.

Windows environment variables

Please use Windows environment variables (e.g. %PROGRAMFILES%) in your commands rather than absolute paths (e.g. C:\Program Files or C:\Programme) because they work independently of the language version of Windows and of the particular location on a system, which can vary. For a list of available environment variables see Windows environment variables.

Similarly, please also use %SOFTWARE% to specify the WPKG package installation directory on the server. Silent installer scripts will then work for everyone's setup, rather than only those whose directory structure matches your own. You define this in WPKG Client, or in a batch script starting wpkg.js, if you don't use WPKG Client - see installation instructions - advanced.
