[Mozilla Enterprise] Silent install question

[William Spratt]

Hi Everyone,

Question: I want to install Firefox silently, and avoid installing the maintenance service(1).
The command line:
“"Firefox Setup 60.2.1esr.exe" /INI=C:\Users\username\Downloads\Firefox.ini”
Does the job.

The command line:
“"Firefox Setup 60.2.1esr.exe" /INI=%~dp0Firefox.ini”
Doesn’t.
We use SCCM to install software (including Firefox), which copies the .exe and .ini files locally before install, but the location is not consistent.  As a work around, I’ve written a VBS file which copies the file into a consistent location, and the installation runs as required, but this feels inelegant.  Has anyone got a better solution?
(1)Our system has rigid change control.  We have specific windows when we’re allowed to update software, so we turn off the auto-update feature.  This makes the installing the maintenance service software redundant, so we’ve been told not to install it.

Regards

Will
