Summary

System administrators often prefer to deploy software automatically to remove the need for a technician to visit each workstation. This article provides instructions for a silent install and assumes you already have a method to push software across systems.

Performing a Silent Install

To perform a silent install via WAVE:

1. Download the appropriate WAVE software from wavevms.com.
    

2. Use the /S switch appended to the WAVE installation executable. This will force a silent installation without requiring any user interaction. 
   
   Example: wave-client-5.0.0.35270-windows_x64.exe /S

   IMPORTANT: Always test this process in a lab or test environment before deploying 
   into a production environment.
   

3. Use your preferred software deployment method to run the silent install command. You may need administrator credentials for installation.

   To validate that the installation was successful, the user will see the WAVE client icon on their desktop and/or the WAVE server icon in the system tray.
