Default for Inno Setup
  • 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 TeXworks?
TeXworks uses EXE (Inno Setup). After downloading the installer, run: TeXworks-win10-setup-0.6.11-202602100835-git_7951fd8.exe /VERYSILENT /SUPPRESSMSGBOXES /NORESTART /NORESTART. The silent install switches are /VERYSILENT /SUPPRESSMSGBOXES /NORESTART.
How do I deploy TeXworks via Intune or Configuration Manager?
Use winget for the cleanest path: winget install --id TUG.TeXworks --exact 0.6.11 --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.
