Question:

Is there a way to silently install and uninstall OpenBridge Designer?

Solution:

To perform a silent installation or uninstall, run the setup program with the appropriate command line options. There are different ways to silent uninstall. Below we provide some examples.

Background

The silent-mode installation allows you to define an installation configuration and then use that configuration to install without any user interaction. This article will cover all the essential aspects of Silent Installation of OpenBridge Designer CONNECT Edition.

Steps to Accomplish

Download the application setup file from Bentley Software Downloads
Keep the setup files in one folder. As an example, let’s set up here as C:\OBD.
1. From the Windows start menu, open a Command Prompt as shown:
In the command prompt dialog paste the below path/text and enter.

C:\OBD\Setup_OpenBridgeDesignerSuitex64_10.11.00.039 InstallDirectory="C:\Program Files\Bentley\OpenBridge CONNECT Edition" WorkSpaceDirectory="C:\ProgramData\Bentley\OpenBridge CONNECT Edition" -q -s -norestart

Note:

Update1 2022 filenames are used in this example with: Setup_OpenBridgeDesignerSuitex64_10.11.00.039

>> “-q -s -norestart” in the command line defines the following:
        -q(quiet) : Quiet mode,
        -s(silent):  no user interaction [Wix installer command for silent installation without any user interaction]
        -norestart: Do not restart after the installation is complete.
>> InstallDirectory: This is the directory into which the OpenBridge Designer CONNECT Edition application files will be installed.
>> ConfigurationDirectory: This directory contains the OpenBridge Designer CONNECT Edition configuration files and sample workset.

4. Please ensure that while entering the command, the name of the installer is the same as the setup file name. For example, the setup file name above is: obd100700105en_updt7. If it’s something different, the command will change according to the setup file name.

5. This process may take some time depending on your internet speed since the required files are downloaded in the background. After that, the application will silently get installed.

6. One can check the installed application in the start menu and pinned to the taskbar or desktop as desired.

Noted below:

For uninstalling the OpenBridge Designer CONNECT Edition, in the command prompt paste the below path/text & hit enter.

A. The uninstall key from the registry WoW64: /uninstall /quiet with the .exe file.

B. /x /s /v"/qn"

C. /x /s /v"/qn/norestart"

For example:

"C:\OBD\Setup_OpenBridgeDesignerSuitex64_10.11.00.039.exe" /uninstall -Quiet

"C:\ProgramData\Package Cache\{56abd6a9-bb2b-48b7-a67f-f738bf3c40f1}\Setup_OpenBridgeDesignerSuitex64_10.11.00.039.exe" /uninstall /quiet

The /quiet option is not part of the original uninstall key, it has to be added.
