So i want to rollout a msi with GPO so far so good
but the problem i am struggeling with is that i get an msg from User Account Control if i want to install this application form an unkowen publisher.

i converted the Azure Site to Site VPN exe with "EXE to MSI converter free"

is there a solution that i dont get this popup.

or should i deploy the exe and a batch file with gpo

i hope this is understanding

best regards

    Easier would be to find out, does the .exe support silent switches. Like /silent, /S, /quet, /Q or anything like that. After that. you can create Task Scheduler with Group Policy Preferences to launch short script for silent install.

    Hi,

    The proper way is to get the msi signed by Microsoft and then it won’t be an issue. If the MSI isn’t signed by Microsoft, your only option may be to disable UAC.
