  • 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 Scala CLI?
Scala CLI uses MSI (WiX). After downloading the installer, run: msiexec.exe /i scala-cli-x86_64-pc-win32.msi /quiet /norestart. The silent install switches are /quiet /norestart.
How do I deploy Scala CLI via Intune or Configuration Manager?
Use winget for the cleanest path: winget install --id VirtusLab.ScalaCLI --exact 1.15.0 --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.
