Note! You need to start the command prompt with Administrative privileges and browse to the folder where the setup program is located.
Optionally for SIMCA® 16
By default the installation program will install SIMCA® including Python support. To change which features to be installed, use the ADDLOCAL argument with value ‘SIMCA®’, ‘Python’ or ‘ShellExt’. Separate the features you want to install with comma.
For instance, install SIMCA® without Python support:
> setup.exe /quiet ADDLOCAL=SIMCA®
Install SIMCA® with Python support and shell extension:
> setup.exe /quiet ADDLOCAL=Python,ShellExt
or
> setup.exe /quiet ADDLOCAL=All
To install SIMCA® with locked audit trail:
> setup.msi /quiet LOCKAUDITTRAIL=yes
