Silent instalation with pre-configured XML settings

[hyllm]

ability to make silent installation with pre-configured XML would be great.

I would also like to have the re-configure Open-Shell with an updated XML distributed by our SW distribution system.

I would also like the ability to configure during silent install with the XML, but also to reconfigure (if I roll out a change to all our users) silently as well.

why not as .reg file, it's more easy..
install, configure and safe the regestrystring it as .reg file and import it by next install with silent switch

best regards

Any movement on this feature?

I doubt that this would be an option as to a "Permanent" implementation to push to every user of this software.

With that stated...

It's not a "Bad" idea either, but this would have to be something that someone would need to open a Github Repo with a development for this option in whichever approach the individual would go.

This could then be a small file download to accompany this software file to then use to install the software in a Silent installation.

I'm not stating that the above option has to be performed in that way, but just an idea for those who may be interested in that type/direction of that approach.

Ultimately, I doubt that @ge0rdi and/or the other developers would be interested in this being implemented directly to the Software since there's enough work needed (as a higher priority) to get done at this point in time.

I hope I've explained this okay via text... 👍

I see, though I don't follow. If you can import a config in the GUI, I'd assume importing one via command line would be simple enough. I'm not one to look for registry support (sounds a bit convoluted, though there are other defaults that depend on the registry), but given every OpenShell install I've done uses the same config, it'd save a ton of time when deploying with a Windows image, given you can install the software silently, especially when deploying en-mass.
