This guide is for IT administrators who need to deploy Nialli Visual Planner across multiple Windows machines using the MSI installer in silent mode (no user interaction).
📥 Download the MSI Installer
❓ Why Use the MSI Installer?
- Supports silent installation
- Works offline
- Ideal for centralized deployment
- Requires admin privileges
⚠️ The ClickOnce Installer does not support silent installation and is intended for individual user installs with automatic updates.
🛠️ Silent Installation Command
To install silently via Command Prompt or PowerShell:
msiexec /i "NialliVisualPlanner.msi" /qn
Optional Parameters
msiexec /i "NialliVisualPlanner.msi" /qn INSTALLDIR="C:\Program Files\NialliVisualPlanner" LOG="C:\Logs\NVPInstall.log"
- INSTALLDIR: Custom installation path
- LOG: Path to write installation logs
🔄 Silent Uninstall
msiexec /x "NialliVisualPlanner.msi" /qn
🔁 Updates
MSI users are notified when a new version is available. Updates must be manually initiated using the latest MSI package and the same silent install method.
📦 Enterprise Deployment Options
You can deploy the MSI silently using tools like:
- Microsoft Intune
- Microsoft SCCM
- Group Policy
- PDQ Deploy
