## Automate Installation

If you need to install UltraVNC on a large number of computers, you might consider automating the installation.

The following commandline parameters can be passed to the setup:

`/dir="Dirname"`
  Sets installation directory to `Dirname` .
`/norestart`
  Suppresses a reboot at the end of the installation.
  Not required since the installation no longer requires a reboot.
`/silent` or `/verysilent`
  Suppresses either pop-up of dialog boxes or any GUI at all.
`/loadinf="Filename"`
  Loads the configuration file `Filename` for the installation.
  This configuration file can be generated by going through setup with `UltraVNC-xxxx-Setup.exe /saveinf="Filename"`.
  `Filename` should be fully qualified.
`/log`
  Writes a log file to the Temp directory.
  Could be used for debugging.
