When you use the Installation wizard, Windows Installer version 4.5 is installed automatically. When you use Silent mode, you must manually install this component if it is not already on the machine.
SilkTest<Version>.exe -i silent -f [path to properties file]\[properties file]
Where the <Version> is the Silk Test version and build number, for example SilkTest14.0_6393.exe
SilkTest<Version>.exe -i silent -f SilentInstall.propertiesIf the SilkTest<Version>.exe is not located in the same directory as the silent installation properties file, specify the absolute path to the properties file location. For example:
SilkTest<Version>.exe -i silent -f C:\temp\SilentInstall.properties
