Remote install on Windows 7 x64

[nhudon]

Hi,

I need to deploy QT on many Windows 7 x64 computers.

How can I deploy QT remotely (command line or MSI) and if possibl, silently.

Thanks.

Hi and welcome to DevNet.
Can you explain what you mean by "deploy Qt", deploying app written on Qt or deploy QtSDK, and what you mean by "deploy remotely"?

Hi,

I downloaded that executable file from this website:

qt-windows-opensource-5.0.2-msvc2012_64-x64-offline.exe

Now, on many Windows 7 x64 computers, I need to install the software without having to go on each computer and execute the installation file.

I want to know if it's possible to put this file on a network share and execute a script or something else to be able to distribute (deploy) it to each computer where I want it to be installed.

Hope you understand what I mean.

Thanks for help.

Very interesting issue. I never thought about it but maybe in your case some 3rd part software could be helpful, for example:

There is a "step-by-step guide":https://support.microsoft.com/kb/816102/en-us for doing this with microsoft's own tools.

This is a "guide using a commandline":https://community.spiceworks.com/how_to/show/211-using-a-command-line-to-install-software-on-remote-pcs to achieve much of the same.

And a Microsoft Technet article about "installing whole OS'ses remotely":http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb742378.aspx. This can also be used to do what you intend.
