Dragon Client Installation Guide
Command Line installation with msiexec.exe
Another way to install Dragon from the command line on several client computers is to use the
msiexec.exe program from Microsoft.
The compiled MSI file, Dragon 15.msi, is located on your installation DVD.
You can double-click the .msi file to start the InstallShield Wizard. However, to take advantage of
available command line options, use the command line installation process described below.
Installing the same configuration on additional computer(s)
1. Open a Command Prompt:
l Windows 7: Start > All Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt
l Windows 8.1: From the Start screen, click the down arrow to show all apps, and then
scroll to Windows System > Command Prompt
l Windows 10: Start > All apps > Windows System > Command Prompt
2.
On your installation DVD, find the directory where Dragon 15.msi is located.
3.
In the Command Prompt window, switch to the Dragon 15.msi directory.
4.
Retrieve the customized nsdefaults.ini file from the computer where you performed the
initial installation.
5. To install the configuration you created during the initial installation, enter the following,
substituting your information as needed:
msiexec /i "Dragon 15.msi"
SERIALNUMBER=<SerialNumber>
DEFAULTSINI="<full_path>\nsdefaults.ini"
/L*v "C:\Logs\logfile.log" /qn
To include Roaming network settings, include the option:
ROAMINGUSERINI=\"C:\<full_path>\roamingdef.ini\"
If you do not pass the ROAMINGUSERINI option, Dragon uses default Roaming network settings.
