Installing using the command line

If desired, you can install SDT at a command prompt and set a custom flag to install the tool in admin mode. SDT contains the following install option flags:

• SENDTELEMETRY sends telemetry data to Microsoft. The flag accepts 0 for disabled or 1 for enabled. The default value is 1 to send telemetry.
• ADMINMODE configures the tool to be installed in admin mode. The flag accepts 0 for client mode or 1 for IT Administrator mode. The default value is 0.

To install SDT from the command line

1. Open a command prompt and enter:

   msiexec.exe /i <the path of installer> ADMINMODE=1. 
   

   Example:

   C:\Users\Administrator> msiexec.exe/I"C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\Microsoft_Surface_Diagnostic_Toolkit_for_Business_Installer.msi" ADMINMODE=1
   

Locating SDT on your Surface device

Both SDT and the SDT app console are installed at C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Surface\Microsoft Surface Diagnostic Toolkit for Business.

In addition to the .exe file, SDT installs a JSON file and an admin.dll file (modules\admin.dll), as shown in Figure 2.

Language and telemetry settings

When creating a package, you can select language settings or opt out of sending telemetry information to Microsoft. By default, SDT sends telemetry to Microsoft to improve the application per the Microsoft Privacy Statement. If you wish to decline, clear the check box when creating a custom package, as shown below. Or clear the Send telemetry to Microsoft check box on the Install Options page during SDT Setup.

Note

This setting does not affect the minimal telemetry automatically stored on Microsoft servers when running tests and repairs that require an Internet connection, such as Windows Update and Software repair, or providing feedback using the Smile or Frown buttons in the app toolbar.
