Symantec.cloud silent install
So I can install the software but I have not had any luck doing so silently. The command that I used to install it is:
"symredistributable.exe"
Looking on symantec's website it looks like all I would have to do is add -silent at the end
"symredistributable.exe -silent"
no luck.
I am pretty new to this software distribution but I have succesfully done both office 2010 & 2013. Any pointers or help that you can provide would be greately appriciated.

According to my ticket I put in for the same issue, it cannot be done fully silent
Case comment:Hello Jason,
Symantec Endpoint Protection.cloud deployment cannot be done without user interaction, even with 3rd party software.
Sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.

I was able to figure this one out today... as it turns out you can only run the -silent switch from a windows Start > Run command (instead of cmd.exe). That said, I created a batch file that resides in the same folder as SymRedistributable.exe
@ECHO off
start "" %~p0SymRedistributable.exe -silent
The start "" will call the windows Start (running the installer in the System32 folder) and the %~p0 will provide the path of the batch file (which should be the same path as your .exe if you have them in the same folder).
I hope this helps you.
