Installing TrueLog Explorer in Silent Mode

The setup provides silent mode installation for TrueLog Explorer as well.

Note: To avoid potential issues, make sure to run the installation with an administrator account that has unrestricted rights.
  1. Open the folder with the installation file in a file manager.
  2. Create a new text file in this folder, rename it to silent.properties and open it in a text editor.
  3. Copy the following text lines and paste them into the file.
    INSTALLER_UI=silent
    
    #USER_INSTALL_DIR=C:\\Silk
    #CREATE_DESKTOP_ICON=0
  4. Modify the following parameters to your needs. If you remove a particular parameter or comment it by prepending a hash (#) character, its default value is used.
    • USER_INSTALL_DIR: Specify a folder for your Silk installations. Make sure to use double backslashes (\\) as folder separators. The default configuration is C:\\Program Files\\Silk on 32-bit operating systems and C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Silk on 64-bit operating systems.
    • CREATE_DESKTOP_ICON: Set to 1 to create a desktop icon or set to 0 to not create a desktop icon. The default value is 1.
  5. Save the file and close it.
  6. Open a command line prompt and navigate to the folder that holds the setup file and the properties file.
  7. Enter the following command:
    silktruelogexplorer-205.exe -f silent.properties
To check if the installation is complete, open the Windows Task Manager and click the Processes tab. When the TrueLog Explorer installation process has disappeared, the installation is complete.
