How to Silently Install the Velaro Desktop Application

Installing the Velaro Desktop application can be streamlined and made effortless, especially useful for bulk installations across multiple systems. This guide will walk you through the process of performing a silent installation of the Velaro Desktop application.

Prerequisites:
- Download the Velaro Desktop installer from: https://app.velaro.com/Downloads
- Ensure you have the correct installer file: `Velaro-Setup-3.0.3.exe`

Silent Installation Steps:

1. Open Command Prompt
   - Press `Win + R` to open the Run dialog.
   - Type `cmd` and press Enter to open the Command Prompt.

2. Navigate to the Installer's Location
   - Use the `cd` command to navigate to the directory where `Velaro-Setup-3.0.3.exe` is located. 
   - For example, if the installer is in your Downloads folder, type: `cd %USERPROFILE%\Downloads` and press Enter.

3. Execute the Silent Install Command
   - Type the following command to install Velaro Desktop silently:
Velaro-Setup-3.0.3.exe /S
   - This will run the installer without displaying any user interface or prompts.

4. Specify Installation Directory (Optional)
   - If you wish to specify a different installation directory, use the `/D` switch. For example:
Velaro-Setup-3.0.3.exe /NCRC /S /D=C:\Program Files\Velaro
   - This command will install Velaro Desktop in the specified `C:\Program Files\Velaro` directory.

5. Disable CRC Check (Optional)
   - To disable the CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Check) during the installation, include the `/NCRC` switch:
Velaro-Setup-3.0.3.exe /NCRC /S
   - This can be combined with the `/D` switch as shown in the previous step.

Notes:
- Ensure that you have administrative privileges to run the installer in silent mode.
- The `/S` switch is case-sensitive and should be uppercase.
- The installation path specified by `/D` should be the last parameter in the command line.

By following these steps, Velaro Desktop will be installed silently on your system, allowing for a quick and unobtrusive setup process.
