  3. To install Mirth® Connect in quiet mode, also known as non-interactive or unattended, by using all user-defined options, run the command as described below. In Windows® , select the Start button, enter Run, and type this command to execute in console mode. This command requires full paths to the .exe file as well as the varfile. For Windows® , the default is Program Files which contains a space in the name, but a varfile is required to omit the space. See notes in the examples topic.

    The varfile is a preference file for the installation. It allows you to define your license key and list of Mirth® Connect extensions to download and install with the installer.
