Install Cliq MSI file silently in Windows

Install Cliq MSI file silently in Windows

Admins can silently deploy Cliq to all user machines with the Cliq MSI installer

Step 1: Download the required Cliq MSI file from here — Cliq for Windows Users

Step 2: Open Command Prompt in your windows and navigate to downloads folder in it (or the folder where the downloaded Cliq file is)

Step 3: Now enter the below command for 32 bit and 64 bit respectively, and execute it. 

msiexec.exe /i Cliq-1.4.2-x32.msi /QN /L*V install.log

msiexec.exe /i Cliq-1.4.2-x64.msi /QN /L*V install.log

On executing the above command, the MSI package will be successfully installed and a log file will also be created in the same folder where this command was run. 

Step 4: To check if it is installed successfully, go to Control Panel > Programs and features. There you will see the app Cliq Machine-Wide Installer, that was successfully installed.

More info

  • Cliq app will also be available for new users when they log-in to their machine.
  • MSI files can also be configured with GPO in terminal server to install Cliq in all the users machine.

 

Troubleshoot

  • If the installation fails you can check the install.log file created in the same folder as the msi file to debug what went wrong. 
  • The MSI file is properly installed but when a new user logs in, they might not find the Cliq application. This is because of the old Cliq files present in %appdata% and %localappdata% folder.
    Users must open Run and type %appdata% or %localappdata% and press Enter. In the new screen that opens, one must look for the folder named Cliq in %appdata% or in %localappdata%, and clear that folder.On doing this, Cliq will get installed in their desktop. 
  • Try restarting your machine once and execute the command. 
  • If you still face issues, get in touch with our support via support@zohocliq.com for assistance.
