CLI

Click the appropriate product version for more information about the installation process. For more information about versioning, reference How to Identify the Dell Trusted Device Version.

Dell Trusted Device allows flexibility in command-line installation options through switches, options, and parameters.

  • Be sure to enclose a value that contains one or more special characters, such as a blank space in the command line, in escaped quotation marks.
  • Use these commands to install Trusted Device Agent using a scripted installation, batch files, or any other push technology available to your organization.
  • Log files: Windows creates installation log files for the logged in user at %temp%, at C:\Users\AppData\Local\Temp. If you decide to add a separate log file when you run the installer, ensure that the log file has a unique name. Use the standard .msi command to create a log file. For example: /l*v C:\[any directory]\[any log file name].log.
  • The installer uses basic .msi switches and display options, except where noted, for command-line installations. The switches must be specified first. The /v switch is required and takes an argument. Other parameters go inside an argument that is passed to the /v switch.

Specify display options at the end of the argument that is passed to the /v switch to achieve the expected behavior. Do not use both /q and /qn in the same command line. Only use ! and - after /qb.

Note: Command-line switches are not case-sensitive.
Switch Meaning
/V Pass variables to the .msi inside the executable. The content must always be enclosed in plain-text quotes.
/S Silent Mode
/L*V Logging verbose output. The content must always be enclosed in plain-text quotes.
