Remote install on Windows 7 x64
-
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:
"remote-installer":http://emcosoftware.com/remote-installer -
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.
