The `/S` parameter ensures silent installation without user prompts for NetBird's EXE installer, while `{{full_path}}` and `{{uninstall_cmd}}` are Acronis variables that automatically resolve to the correct paths during deployment. Click `Next` when ready.
> **Note**: If you're using NetBird's MSI installer instead of the EXE installer, use `/qn` in the **Installation options** field instead of `"{{full_path}}" /S`. The **Uninstallation options** field remains the same (`{{uninstall_cmd}} /S`) for both installer types. The `/qn` parameter provides quiet installation with no user interface for MSI packages.

If you're using NetBird's MSI installer instead of the EXE installer, use `/qn` in the **Installation options** field instead of `"{{full_path}}" /S`. The **Uninstallation options** field remains the same (`{{uninstall_cmd}} /S`) for both installer types. The `/qn` parameter provides quiet installation with no user interface for MSI packages. To disable UI autostart with the MSI installer, add `AUTOSTART=0` to the installation options (e.g., `/qn AUTOSTART=0`).
