  • Declared by publisher means the switches come straight from the winget manifest the publisher (or community maintainer) submitted to microsoft/winget-pkgs.
  • Default for {type} means the manifest doesn't specify silent switches, so the framework's standard switches are shown (e.g. /S for NSIS, /quiet /norestart for MSI).

Frequently asked questions

What is the silent install command for Vid-dl?
Vid-dl uses MSI. After downloading the installer, run: msiexec.exe /i Video.Downloader_1.6.5_x64_en-US.msi /quiet /norestart. The silent install switches are /quiet /norestart.
How do I deploy Vid-dl via Intune or Configuration Manager?
