The Setup.exe command line is used for very few operations in Office setup. Instead of using the Setup command-line options, you’ll typically use the Office Customization Tool and the Config.xml file for product setup and feature customization.
The Office Setup.exe command line recognizes the command-line options described in the following table.
Office Setup Command-Line Options
Setup Command-Line Option | Description |
---|---|
/admin |
Runs the Office Customization Tool to create a Setup customization file (.msp file). |
/adminfile [path] |
Applies the specified Setup customization file to the installation. You can specify a path of a specific customization file (.msp file) or to the folder where you store customization files. |
/config [path] |
Specifies the Config.xml file that Setup uses during the
installation. Use the /config option to specify the Config.xml file
you customized for Lync 2013 installations, for example:
|
/modify Lync |
Used with a modified Config.xml file to run Setup in maintenance mode and make changes to an existing Office installation. For example, you can use the /modify option to add or remove Lync features. |
/repair Lync |
Runs Setup from the user’s computer to repair Lync. |
/uninstall Lync |
Runs Setup to remove Lync from the user’s computer. |
