| Switch (defaults in bold) |
Description |
Examples |
| /S (case sensitive) |
Performs a silent installation. Since no configuration dialogs will be shown during install,
you should compliment this switch with others (listed below) to specify how you would like Process Lasso configured. |
ProcessLassoSetup.exe /S |
/language=[English]
- English
- Russian
- Serbian
- Japanese
- PortugueseBr
- Dutch
- TradChinese
- SimpChinese
|
This indicates the language to use. If this value is not supplied, it defaults to English. Do not try to use unsupported languages,
and be sure your language name is spelled as listed here (i.e. PortugueseBr). |
ProcessLassoSetup.exe /S /language=English
ProcessLassoSetup.exe /S /language=Serbian
ProcessLassoSetup.exe /S /language=Japanese
ProcessLassoSetup.exe /S /language=PortugueseBr
|
| /gui_start_type=[all|current|manual] |
This indicates whether to start the GUI at login for ALL users (all), for only the current user (current), or neither (manual).
The current user is the user context in which the installer is running. |
ProcessLassoSetup.exe /S /gui_start_type=all
ProcessLassoSetup.exe /S /gui_start_type=current
ProcessLassoSetup.exe /S /gui_start_type=manual
|
| /governor_start_type=[all|current|service|manual] |
This indicates whether to start the core engine (processgovernor) at login for ALL users (all), for only the current user (current), as a service, or neither (manual).
The current user is the user context in which the installer is running. When /governor_start_type=service, the /username and /password switches can be used as modifiers to indicate in what user context
the service should run. If a username and password isn't supplied, it will run in the system context. |
ProcessLassoSetup.exe /S /governor_start_type=all
ProcessLassoSetup.exe /S /governor_start_type=current
ProcessLassoSetup.exe /S /governor_start_type=service
ProcessLassoSetup.exe /S /governor_start_type=service /username=myuser /password=mypass
|
| /rights=[highest|normal] |
This indicates whether to run Process Lasso and its core engine with HIGHEST rights, or with NORMAL rights. When run with HIGHEST rights, each instance
can manage the processes of ALL users on the system. When running with NORMAL rights, each instance only manages the processes in its current user context. Normally,
each user has his or her own instance of Process Lasso to manage their processes, therefore NORMAL is the recommend and default
value. When running the core engine as a service, this setting is forced to HIGHEST. Please note that if HIGHEST rights is selected, Windows Defender will BLOCK startup of the GUI in
Vista /w UAC enabled. It will notify you and allow you to run the application at your choice. It will not block startup of the core engine when the core engine is running as a service.
The default value of this parameter is NORMAL. |
ProcessLassoSetup.exe /S /rights=normal
ProcessLassoSetup.exe /S /rights=highest
|
| /logfolder=[folder] |
This indicates to use a global log folder for ALL users on the system. By default, each user has his or her own log folder in their respective application data directory. However,
it is sometimes desirable to consolidate all log events into a single log folder. Be sure that this log folder is writable by all users on the system. |
ProcessLassoSetup.exe /S /logfolder=c:\systemlogs
ProcessLassoSetup.exe /S /logfolder=c:\systemlogs
|
| /configfolder=[folder] |
This indicates to use a global configuration folder for ALL users on the system. By default, each user has his or her own configuration in their respective application data directory. However,
it is sometimes desirable to use the same configuration for all users. Be sure that this configuration folder is at least readable by all users, and writable by those who you wish to allow
configuration changes. |
ProcessLassoSetup.exe /S /configfolder=c:\pl_config
ProcessLassoSetup.exe /S /configfolder=c:\pl_config
|
| /launch_gui=[true|false] |
This indicates whether or not to launch the GUI after installation. Even when the GUI is launched, it remains minimized to the system tray. |
ProcessLassoSetup.exe /S /launch_gui=true
|
| /importconfigfrom=[path] |
This indicates to import the configuration from the file you've specified. This should be used in conjunction with /configfolder. The file you specify here
will be the initial configuration for Process Lasso. You can specify only a folder OR a specific filename here. If you specify only a folder, "prolasso.ini" will
simply be appended to the path name. |
ProcessLassoSetup.exe /S /configfolder=c:\pl_config /importconfigfrom=c:\temp
ProcessLassoSetup.exe /S /configfolder=c:\pl_config /importconfigfrom=c:\temp\my_default_config.ini
|
/username=[user]
/password=[pass] |
When running the core engine as a service (/governor_start_type=service), these switches can be used to indicate under which user you should start the service. The user
MUST have permission to 'logon as a service' (see our FAQ for info on allowing that). If a specific user is not supplied, the core engine
will run in the system context. Please remember that the Windows user password is case sensitive. |
ProcessLassoSetup.exe /S /governor_start_type=service /username=myuser /password=mypass
|
| /configpw=[password] |
This sets the configuration password. This password is required for by the GUI when a user tries to make a change to the
configuration file. Use this parameter without a value to remove any existing password. |
ProcessLassoSetup.exe /S /configpw=somepassword
|
