Installation with a standard configuration

The installation file telnet.msi can also be started with a configuration file as a parameter. Install telnet on a PC, and use menu - tools - configuration - export, to export a configuration file.

On another PC, reuse the configuration running

telnet.msi CONFIG=c:\user.config /quiet

if the configuration file was saved in c:\

The parameter /quiet is optional and will run the installation without user interaction.
