NOTE: Extensis Support is not responsible for assisting you in implementing a unique remote deploy method or troubleshooting the commands below. The information in this article is intended to share methods we've found helpful for other customers, for those who may be looking to remotely deploy Connect Fonts or Suitcase Fusion in their environment.
Silently Installing Connect Fonts
The Connect Fonts executable can be deployed silently through command line (remove < > characters):
<path to installer exe> /s
Installing Plug-ins from Command Prompt
The following can be used in remote commands or scripts to install the auto-activation plug-ins separately, after Connect Fonts is installed. The following commands require that Connect Fonts.exe is already installed:
To install:
C:\Program Files\Extensis\Connect Fonts\Connect Fonts.exe /install
To uninstall:
C:\Program Files\Extensis\Connect Fonts\Connect Fonts.exe /uninstall
Disabling Automatic Update Notices
The following can be deployed via command line to remotely turn off the "check for automatic updates" in the client.
NOTES:
- Connect Fonts Desktop application must be installed on the users machine.
- The user account might need to be specified if your management account runs as root.
- A user can manually turn this back on by uninstalling and reinstalling the Connect Fonts app, or by repairing the application.
reg add HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Extensis\com.extensis.SuitcaseFusion\Prefs /v SUEnableAutomaticChecks /t REG_SZ /d 0 /f
