    FrostWolf - 2022-06-21

    I set up a script in our automation software this morning to upgrade a number of systems to 7-Zip 22.

    The script uses the following command:

    msiexec.exe /i C:\PathToFile\7z2200-x64.msi /qn

    for the install. Upon testing this, I found that the installer restarted the system I was testing on despite the /qn quiet, no restart) that I'm used to using for MSI installers.

    Is there something I need to do differently when installing 7-Zip? Thank you.

    Maybe some another switches can help?
    Look the list of options:

    msiexec
    
    /norestart
