Running an Installation in Silent Mode

InstallShield 2023 Express Edition

If you do not want to have the Setup.exe progress bar displayed when it launches, you can use the /s command-line parameter. For example, if you enter Setup.exe /s, Setup.exe launches, but the user interface is not displayed. If you want the .msi package to run silently as well, you need to pass the /qn command-line parameter through Setup.exe using the /v parameter—for example:

Setup.exe /s /v/qn
