Hi guys,
I have recently been asked to look into Group Policy. We have a small home office with a few users as one of our clients and am looking to install MSE for them through MS Server 2003 (SP2). I have extracted an msi file out of the EXE and on my VM test server, it appears to work (brings up the installation window). I am assigning it to users (as opposed to computers as there are a number of machines and laptops being used). I came to the issue of the policy showing a dialogue box and it even gives you the option to cancel the installation (NOT what we want). I was wondering how I could make the policy run silently. The steps I have followed are as follows:
1. Created a GPO called Windows Security Essentials
2. Edited the policy via User Configuration>Software Settings>Software Installation. I have added the network path and have chosen an Advanced install.
3. I have Assigned the policy and have selected Install this application at logon, Uninstall this application when it falls out of the scope of management and selected Installtion user interface options as Basic
I have placed the msi into a folder which is shared with everyone as read access.
Could you please help/advise what I can do :)
Cheers all
