PaintDotNet – Command-line note

For silent Paint.NET deployment, use the /auto parameter with the EXE installer (paint.net.x.y.z.install.x64.exe /auto) for completely unattended installation, or deploy via MSI using MsiExec.exe /i paint.net.x.y.z.winmsi.x64.msi /qn for Active Directory/Group Policy integration. Customize deployment by appending MSI properties such as TARGETDIR=C:Paint.NET to change the installation path or DESKTOPSHORTCUT=0 to suppress desktop shortcut creation, enabling consistent enterprise-wide configurations without user interaction.
