silent install including faro plugin

Hello. Trying to install silently with the Faro plugin. The /VERYSILENT and /LOADINF parameters are working for the main CC installer, but this does not stop the Faro installer GUI from appearing and waiting for user input. I've had a look at the innosetup switches but can't see anything obvious. Any suggestions?

Alternatively, can we install the Faro plug-in separately after installing CC?

Thanks.
Ian.

Found these entries in the CC install log:

2024-10-15 13:07:54.784 -- Run entry --
2024-10-15 13:07:54.784 Run as: Current user
2024-10-15 13:07:54.785 Type: Exec
2024-10-15 13:07:54.785 Filename: C:\Users\[my-user-name]\AppData\Local\Temp\is-MKI5O.tmp\FARO LS 2020.0.7.6378 Setup.exe
2024-10-15 13:10:39.051 Process exit code: 0

Can this be installed separately, either after the 7-zip archive files are unpacked or after the CC installer has run w/o Faro selected?

I think I've answered the question about installing Faro separately. Installed CC without Faro plugin enabled. Then ran the Faro installer separately. It doesn't appear to enable it in CC so it must be doing something else when installed with the CC installer.

I don't think we need the Faro plug-in so will likely install without it. Would be good to figure it out though.

Yes, the option installs both the plugin and the FARO LS SDK. And it doesn't do it silently because I could not find the options to make it silent at that time...
