[Rik]

Do you have an example file you could share? Have you searched the documentation for an explanation?

When you download the installer, the installer_input.txt file is already formatted, you just need to fill it out appropriately for your setup. Here's R2022b's file:

##################################################################

##

## Use this file to specify parameters required by the installer at runtime.

##

## Instructions for using this file.

##

## 1. Create a copy of this template file and fill in the required

## information.

##

## 2. Uncomment only those lines that start with a single '#'

## and set the desired values. All allowed values for the

## parameters are defined in the comments section for each

## parameter.

##

## 3. Launch the installer from the command line, using the -inputFile option

## to specify the name of your installer initialization file.

##

## (Windows) setup.exe -inputFile <file_name>

## (Linux/macOS) install -inputFile <file_name>

##

##

## SPECIFY INSTALLATION FOLDER

##

## Example:

## (Windows) destinationFolder=C:\Program Files\MATLAB\RXXXX

## (Linux) destinationFolder=/usr/local/RXXXX

## (macOS) destinationFolder=/Applications

##

## Set the desired value for destinationFolder and

## uncomment the line.

# destinationFolder=

##

## SPECIFY FILE INSTALLATION KEY

##

## Example: fileInstallationKey=xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx.....

##

## Set the desired value for fileInstallationKey and

## uncomment the line.

##

# fileInstallationKey=

##

## ACCEPT LICENSE AGREEMENT

##

## You must agree to the license agreement to install MathWorks products.

## The license agreement can be found in the license_agreement.txt file at the

## root level of the installation DVD.

##

## Example: agreeToLicense=yes

##

## Set agreeToLicense value to yes or no and

## uncomment the line.

# agreeToLicense=

##

## SPECIFY OUTPUT LOG

##

## Specify full path of file into which you want the results of the

## installation to be recorded.

##

## Example:

## (Windows) outputFile=C:\TEMP\mathworks_<user_name>.log

## (Linux/macOS) outputFile=/tmp/mathworks_<user_name>.log

##

## Set the desired value for outputFile and

## uncomment the line.

# outputFile=

##

## Enable Login Named User licensing

##

## Set to Yes to enable use of a Login Named User license for all users of this MATLAB installation

## Users must log in to their MathWorks Account when MATLAB starts.

##

## Example: enableLNU=yes

##

## NOTE: This flag is valid in silent installations only.

# enableLNU=yes

##

## IMPROVE MATLAB

##

## Improve MATLAB by sending user experience information to MathWorks.

## Your participation ensures that you are represented and helps us design

## better products. You can opt in or out of this service either during

## installation or by going to MATLAB preferences.

## https://www.mathworks.com/support/faq/user_experience_information_faq.html

########## Begin: Options for Network License Types #########

##

## SPECIFY PATH TO LICENSE FILE (Required for network license types only)

##

## This value is required when installing as a Network End-User

## Example:

## (Windows) licensePath=C:\TEMP\license.dat

## (Linux) licensePath=/tmp/license.dat

## Set the desired value for licensePath and

## uncomment the line.

# licensePath=

## CHOOSE TO SET FILE ASSOCIATIONS

##

## Set to true if you want the installer to associate file types used by MathWorks

## products to this version of MATLAB, or false if you do not want the installer to

## associate MathWorks file types with this version of MATLAB.

##

## Default value is true.

##

## Set setFileAssoc value to true or false and

## uncomment the line.

# setFileAssoc=true

##

## CHOOSE TO CREATE WINDOWS DESKTOP SHORTCUT

##

## Set to true if you would like the installer to create a desktop shortcut icon

## when MATLAB is installed or false if you don't want the shortcut created.

##

## Default value is false.

##

## Set desktopShortcut value to true or false and

## uncomment the line.

# desktopShortcut=false

## CHOOSE TO ADD SHORTCUT TO WINDOWS START MENU

##

## Set to true if you would like the installer to create a Start Menu shortcut

## icon when MATLAB is installed or false if you don't want the shortcut created.

##

## Default value is true.

##

## Set startMenuShortcut value to true or false and

## uncomment the line.

# startMenuShortcut=true

## CREATE a MATLAB Startup Accelerator task

##

## The MATLAB Startup Accelerator installer creates a

## system task to preload MATLAB into the system's cache

## for faster startup.

##

## NOTE: By default, a MATLAB Startup Accelerator task will

## automatically be created.

##

## If you want a MATLAB Startup Accelerator task to be created,

## do not edit this section.

##

## Set createAccelTask value to false if you do not want to

## create an Accelerator task and uncomment the line.

# createAccelTask=true

## SPECIFY PRODUCTS YOU WANT TO INSTALL

##

## By default, the installer installs all the products and

## documentation for which you are licensed. Products you are not licensed for

## are not installed, even if they are listed here.

##

## Note:

## 1. To automatically install all your licensed products, do not edit

## any lines in this section.

##

## 2. To install a specific product or a subset of products for

## which you are licensed, uncomment the line for the product(s) you want

## to install.

[Abbas Farshi]

Good morning Jestzer

thank you for your feedback, but i will install "add-ons" on installed matlab.

[Greg]

This answer is not quite applicable. Installing add-ons silently is different from installing MATLAB silently. The instructions for doing so state:

cd DRIVE:\<MATLAB_PATH>\bin\win64
SupportSoftwareInstaller.exe -downloadfolder <path_to_download_folder> -inputfile <path_to_input_file>\ssi_input.txt

I am also trying to figure out the syntax of this "ssi_input.txt" or where to find an example. I assume it is not quite the same as "installer_input.txt". Those same instructions also only mention that "The input file is used to specify the support packages that are to be installed."

[Markus David Belz]

The ssi_input.txt will be created for you automatically.

You have to download the support software downloader from here:

https://uk.mathworks.com/support/install/support-software-downloader.html

In this downloader you select your Matlab version and the support package(s) you want to install and then it will create the folder containing the Add-Ons and the ssi_input.txt.
