CMake Windows MSI deployment and cmake –install clarification
For managed Windows installs, use Kitware’s official Windows MSI from the CMake download page and deploy it with standard MSI tooling, for example msiexec /i cmake-<version>-windows-x86_64.msi /qn /norestart. The same page also publishes zip builds, so prefer the MSI when you need Add/Remove Programs registration and normal inventory/detection. Source: CMake download page.
Keep build-install steps separate from the product installer. The upstream cmake(1) manual documents cmake --install <dir> for installing a built project and supports options such as --prefix <prefix> and --config <cfg>; those switches are for project install phases, not for silently installing the CMake MSI itself. Source: CMake install-a-project documentation.
