Silent installation
To perform a silent install of Workflow, the setup executable (OL_Connect_Workflow_Enterprise_2025.1.0.nnnnn_bnnn.exe or OL_Connect_Workflow_Professional_2025.1.0.nnnnn_bnnn.exe) needs to be started from the command line with the /s parameter, followed by one or more of the following parameters, each separated by a space.
In all cases, a value of “1” means include the component, while a value of “0” means it will be skipped.
Note that setting a “0” value is usually not necessary as the parameter can simply be omitted from the command.

Upgrading when custom user configured
If you have previously set up a custom user in the Configure Services dialog settings, an additional parameter is required for an upgrade installation:
SVCPWD = PASSWORD
These credentials are also used by the Messenger service. Please ensure the password is entered correctly. It is not validated when entered here.
If you have previously set up a custom user, but do not enter this parameter, the upgrade process will revert to the account used by the Workflow service to LocalSystem, so that the service can still be used after the upgrade.

The following performs a silent install of Workflow, the Image and Search modules and prepares desktop shortcuts for each:
