CONNECTION Client v10.00.10.13 Silent Installation Always Creates a Desktop Shortcut

Hello,

I am attempting to deploy CONNECTION Client v10.00.10.13 silently as per the wiki using the command below and it consistently installs the desktop shortcut.

Silent Install Command: "blg6410001013en.exe BeCheckUpdateOption=3 BeCheckUpdateIsEnabled=0 /q"

It appears to honour this option when installing manually (i.e. same command options without /q); how can I force the installation to respect the do not "Create application shortcut on Desktop" option when performing a silent install?

Is there a complete list of all command line options available for the installation of CONNECTION Client v10.00.10.13?

Thanks

  • Hi Tamicca,

    Thank you for your reply and suggested solution.

    I can confirm the "InstallDesktopShortcutFromParent=0" installation switch works for silent installations, but only when initiated from an elevated command prompt within a user session. When installing as the SYSTEM user though (i.e. with a GPO startup script) it continues to create the desktop shortcut.

    Is there a known way to silently deploy CONNECTION Client to multiple computers without creating the desktop shortcut?
