Silent/Unattended installation
In addition to the Installation Wizard, you can install ESET Mail Security silently via command line. This installation type does not require interaction and is referred to as an unattended installation.
Run the following command to complete installation via command line: msiexec /i <packagename> /qn /l*xv msi.log
Use the Windows Event Viewer to check the Application Log (look for records from Source: MsiInstaller) to ensure you have a successful installation or review any installation issues.
Full installation on a 64-bit system: msiexec /i emsl_nt64.msi /qn /l*xv msi.log ADDLOCAL=NetworkProtection,RealtimeProtection,^ |
When the installation finishes, ESET main program window starts and the ESET icon is displayed in the Windows notification area.
Installation of the product in specified language (German): msiexec /i emsl_nt64.msi /qn ADDLOCAL=NetworkProtection,RealtimeProtection,^ See Language parameters in Command line installation for further details and the list of language codes. |
When specifying values for REINSTALL parameter, you must list the rest of the features that are not used as values for the ADDLOCAL or REMOVE parameters. It is necessary for the command line installation to run properly that you list all the features as values for REINSTALL, ADDLOCAL and REMOVE parameters. Adding or removing may not be successful if you do not use the REINSTALL parameter. Refer to the Command line installation section for the complete feature list. |
