| <b>IMPORTANT:</b><br>
| |
| DO NOT MIX command line options from different lines below (e.g. don't mix /S with /INI, etc.)<br>
| |
| The account performing the installation will require administrative privileges to properly complete the installation.<br>
| |
| This page applies only to the full installer and not the stub installer. If you want to perform a silent install you cannot do so with the stub installer and you must use the full installer. Full installers for Firefox can be found at http://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/ (or for Firefox [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox/organizations/ ESR] at http://www.mozilla.org/firefox/organizations/all/ ).

| Silent install (always installs into the default location. Use the "Configuration ini file" option below to set the install location and other install options):<br>
| |
| <tt><path to setup executable> -ms</tt>
| |
| | |
| Silent uninstall:<br>
| |
| <tt><path to setup executable> /S</tt>
| |
| | |
| Configuration ini file:<br>
| |
| <tt><path to setup executable> [/INI=<<b>full path</b> to configuration ini file>]</tt>
| |
| | |
| When specifying a configuration ini file the installer will always run silently. When specifying a Configuration ini file other command line switches should not be specified and may have unexpected results
| |
| | |
| Configuration ini file syntax and available settings:
| |
| <pre>[Install]
| |
| ;
| |
| ; Remove the semicolon (;) to un-comment a line.
| |

| |
| ; The name of the directory where the application will be installed in the
| |
| ; system's program files directory. The security
| |
| ; context the installer is running in must have write access to the
| |
| ; installation directory. Also, the directory must not exist or if it exists
| |
| ; it must be a directory and not a file. If any of these conditions are not met
| |
| ; the installer will abort the installation with an error level of 2. If this
| |
| ; value is specified then InstallDirectoryPath will be ignored.
| |

| ; TaskbarShortcut=false
| |
| | |
| ; Create a shortcut for the application on the desktop. This will create the

| ; Create shortcuts for the application in the Start Menu. This will create the

| ; StartMenuShortcuts=false
| |
| | |
| ; The directory name to use for the StartMenu folder (not available with

| ; StartMenuDirectoryName=Mozilla Firefox
| |
| | |
| ; The MozillaMaintenance service is used for silent updates and may be used
| |
| ; for other maintenance related tasks. It is an optional component.
| |
| ; This option can be used in Firefox 16 or later to skip installing the service.
| |
| ; MaintenanceService=false
| |
| | |
| ; Starts with Firefox 60, it's possible to mark all or some of the extensions
| |
| ; bundled within a partner distribution as optional.
| |
| ; Set this option to false to opt-out installtion of any optional extensions.
| |
| ; OptionalExtensions=false</pre>
| |
| | |
| As of Firefox 4.0 StartMenuDirectoryName is ignored due to the removal of the start menu directory for Firefox and the creation of a start menu shortcut in the root of the start menu (see {{bug|598779}}).
