How to Install Client Without User Interaction

Question​

Can you install the Netwrix Endpoint Protector client, without user interaction?

Answer​

Yes, you can install the Netwrix Endpoint Protector client via the command line interface with administrative privileges. This method installs the client without user interaction and does not require a system restart.

For the full reference, see Agent Installation and Agent Install Parameters in the Agent documentation. For the full list of MSI properties (server address, department code, proxy settings, and more) and GPO deployment steps, see How to Deploy the Windows Endpoint Protector Agent.

Run the following command:

msiexec /i "C:\Users\eppuser1\Desktop\EPP Client\EPPClientSetup.6.2.4.2000_x86_64_[a=192.168.43.115].msi" /norestart /qn /l*v "C:\EPP_inst.log"
  • /qn performs a silent installation.
  • /norestart prevents a computer restart after installation is complete.
  • /l*v "C:\EPP_inst.log" writes a verbose installation log to the specified path — useful for troubleshooting a failed silent install.
tip

To customize the installation (server address, department code, proxy settings, and more), add the relevant MSI properties to the command. See the Appendix in How to Deploy the Windows Endpoint Protector Agent for the full property list.
