What is Silent Install Builder?
Silent Install Builder is a software tool developed by Ethan Breton LLC that makes it easy to create silent install setup packages for many types of common Windows software. A silent installer runs an installation in the background without requiring user input. This allows IT staff to efficiently deploy software remotely across many computers.
With Silent Install Builder's graphical interface, you simply select the original installer file for the target application and choose customizable options like installation directory, which features to install, license key, and more. The software then analyzes the original installer and builds a new single executable silent installer from your selections.
Key features include:
- Supports creating silent installers from 300+ common software installers including Microsoft Office, Adobe CC Suite, browser plugins, drivers, runtime libraries, and more
- One-click generation of fully silent, customizable 32-bit and 64-bit MSI installers
- Pre-defined common parameter sets for leading complex apps like Chrome, Firefox, Office 2013/2016/2019/2021/365
- Option to build an answer file to provide responses to questions that come up during installation
- Detailed logging to troubleshoot failed installations
- Command line interface for integrating into scripts and remote deployment tools
Silent Install Builder simplifies the process of preparing software for automated deployment across large organizations. With its user-friendly interface and widespread compatibility, it saves significant IT administration time and resources compared to manually creating silent installers.
