RE: Silent Install Parameters

Thank you both for you suggestions.

Also, thank you for the warning regarding breaking it. The script is for onboarding brand new devices so we don’t have much to worry about in that department.

All I needed was the /ALLUSERS part which I was missing so thank you all for that!

Kindest regards,
David.

we use SCCM as software deployment and it also installs as SYSTEM account

I would suggest you use powershell app deployment toolkit (PSADT) because if user is still running pgadmin during installing an later version or uninstalling it can break Pgadmin

this is what you need as batch script:

vcredist_x64.exe /install /quiet /norestart /noreboot /log c:\windows\logs\vcredist_2013_x64_install_12.0.30501.log
pgadmin4-6.8-x64.exe /verysilent /norestart /allusers /LOG=C:\Windows\logs\pgadmin4v6.8_install.log'

If you want I can share the psadt script as well.
