Silent / Unattended installation
In 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
On Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1, the Network protection feature will not be installed. |
To make sure the installation was successful or in case of any issues with the installation, use Windows Event Viewer to check the Application Log (look for records from Source: MsiInstaller).
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 GUI starts and the 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. |
