Unattended Installation with the Deployment Assistant

A Congree installation configured in the Deployment Assistant and other installation-related actions can also be performed as an unattended installation.

In the command prompt, go to the directory containing the Deployment Assistant executable.

How to Check the System Requirements

How to Perform a Congree Installation

If you want to install your Congree Client, execute Congree-Deployment-Assistant-[version]-x86.exe /i [name of the configuration host].
