Parameter

Description

Example

/w

This parameter forces the
executable defined in the
installation file to execute after
the extraction and to wait
until the installation is
complete before exiting.

[System Update installation file
name].exe -a /w

If you extract the installation file
contents first, and then want to
use the /w parameter with the
executable, the installation file
will point to the folder to where
file contents are extracted to and
then starts the executable file
specified in the installation file as
the executable file to start after
the extraction.

For example: Setup.exe /w
