The difficulty with ActivInspire silent installs is version fragmentation. Promethean often releases the software as a self-extracting executable. To do a proper silent install, admins often have to use a tool like 7-Zip to extract the contents to find the .msi file inside. This "hack" is rarely officially supported by the vendor, making the knowledge on how to do it correctly feel like an "exclusive" trade secret. | Issue | Solution | |-------|----------| | Still
