My point is that "silent" doesn't mean "no visible GUI." It generally means "the installer doesn't block" (i.e., the installation completes without user input). For example, the popular Inno Setup install builder (https://www.jrsoftware.org/isinfo.php) has a "/SILENT" command line parameter, which (if the installer is designed correctly) causes the created installer to install the package without user input. If run in the user's session, a GUI is still visible; it just doesn't stop to ask for any input. If you install using a software management tool, this usually installs in a separate session, so it doesn't matter if there's a GUI as long as no input is required. Bill
