PC Client Silent Installation

Silent install runs in the background and will start the Streamline NX PC Client Windows Service after successful installation.

Silent Install Using the MSI Installer

If you are running a version of PC Client prior to 23R1 and you plan to use the MSI installer to install PC Client, you must first uninstall the software before running the new PC Client installer. The MSI installer is not backwards compatible with older versions of the PC Client installer. Refer to Uninstall SLNX PC Client for instructions to uninstall using the software.

If using the MSI installer, initiate a silent install with the following command:

"Ricoh Streamline NX PC Client.msi" /qn <ADDLOCAL=ALL> PROPERTIES

The following arguments are available.

Argument	Meaning
/qn	This is passed to the MSI to tell it to run in quiet mode with no UI. Additional options that can be used are: /q[n\|b\|r\|f] Sets user interface level n - No UI b - Basic UI r - Reduced UI f - Full UI (default) When using /qn from a command-line, the command prompt must first be elevated to Administrator privileges.
ADDLOCAL=ALL	Use this parameter if the bundled JRE is going to be used with the installation. To use a JRE already installed in the system environment, do not include this parameter.
PROPERTIES	These are the public properties that are set to configure the system. Each property name is all uppercase, and the value is set via an '='. (i.e. PROPERTY=value). When property values have spaces, the values must be quoted. See the properties table below.
