  • 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 QtCreator?
QtCreator uses MSI (WiX). After downloading the installer, run: msiexec.exe /i qtcreator-windows-x64-msvc-20.0.1.msi /quiet /norestart. The silent install switches are /quiet /norestart.
How do I deploy QtCreator via Intune or Configuration Manager?
Use winget for the cleanest path: winget install --id TheQtCompanyLtd.QtCreator --exact 20.0.1 --silent --accept-package-agreements --accept-source-agreements. If winget isn't viable in your environment, package the publisher's installer directly using the silent switches above.
