      Hello,

      I’m installing NPP7.7 across my network (simply because I find it so much better than standard notepad), however I’d like to install it silently via my MDT server.

      Someone mentioned trying /S however when I try that manually, it still bring up the installer window.

      What is the command line options for the .exe installer? (or is there an MSI that I can get somewhere).

      Thanks!

        welcome to the notepad++ community, @Oliver-Bishop

        the correct command line is: npp.7.7.Installer.exe /S /D=%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Notepad++\

        notes:

        • the installer has to be run with elevated rights, due to necessary permissions for an install.
        • if you use start in a batch script, you have to specify a title, like start "nppInstaller" npp.7.7.Installer.exe /S /D=%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Notepad++\.

        best regards.

          They pull information from the installer of your program.
