How to install FenixPyre Windows Desktop Client via command line or RMM

To install FenixPyre using the command line interface, do the following steps:

  1. Download and unzip the installer zip file:

    • Go to the admin dashboard and click installers.

    • Click the download icon corresponding to your desired version of FenixPyre (note that this guide is for FenixPyre 6.2.0+).

    • Unzip the downloaded zip file to get the FPSetup_v<version number of client>.exe executable.

  2. Open a Command Prompt or PowerShell window as an administrator.

  3. Run the installer using your org-id and desired options (more information below).

FPSetup_v<version number of client>.exe --org-id <org-id> [parameters]

Critical points to remember

  • Ensure you have completed all the items in Minimum System Requirements.

  • You must supply a valid organization id org-id.

  • Should installation be non-responsive, verify the org-id parameter is correct and not empty.

  • Ensure that you run the command at least once in non-silent mode to allow you to discover any errors. Once satisfied that the command works, add the --silent parameter for an unattended installation. You may also use a Remote Monitoring and Management (RMM) tool.

  • All parameters are case-sensitive. You must enter them exactly as described. For example, --SILENT will not work and will generate an error.


Parameters

--org-id <org-id>

  • The org-id and domain name are case-sensitive.

--silent

  • The installer will not display a user prompt or a progress bar during installation.

  • The system will automatically reboot without prompting the user unless you also specify the --reboot-prompt option.

--setup-logs <folder-path>

  • Logs created by the installer will be saved to the folder at <folder-path>.

  • If the specified folder does not exist, the installer will create it.

  • The installer will name the logs using the following format: FPSetup_<date and time>.log

  • If you do not specify a folder, the installer will create the logs in the default path: C:\Users\Public\FenixPyreSetupLogs\FPSetup_<date and time>.log

--reboot-prompt

  • Use this parameter only when performing a silent installation.

  • When supplied, the installer will prompt the user before rebooting the computer.

--plugin-install

  • Installs Microsoft Office plugins only.

--skip-reboot

  • This parameter tells the installer not to prompt the user to reboot the computer.

  • The user will reboot manually and proceed with FenixPyre sign-in.

--help

  • Displays a help window and ignores all other parameters.

--skip-vcredist-check

  • FenixPyreInstaller.exe depends on Visual C++ Redistributable libraries (msvcp140.dll, vccorlib140.dll, vcruntime140.dll).

  • This flag tells FenixPyreInstaller.exe to skip checking these dependencies.

--disable-ignore-extensions
