Proper way to install using EXE

Question

I am trying to install the Barracuda Content Shield for our endpoints but its an EXE and not an MSI, plus it needs a key file. The instruction on their site say to use this on the command line:

BarracudaContentShieldSetup-2.3.4.1.exe
ISFeatureInstall="WebFiltering,MalwarePrevention"
KEYPATH="bcs.key"
/silent

Can i upload both the exe and .key file in a policy? Also, for the command line in the policy it says to use powershell syntax and I am not sure how to convert the above to powershell.

Thank you.

Upload both files to the worklet. Then give this one-liner a try

Start-Process BarracudaContentShieldSetup-2.3.4.1.exe -ArgumentList "ISFeatureInstall='WebFiltering,MalwarePrevention' KEYPATH='bcs.key' /silent" -Wait

Thank you. I tweaked what you put just a little bit based on some other worklets i saw. It works. Thank you.

exit (Start-Process BarracudaContentShieldSetup-2.3.4.1.exe -ArgumentList ("ISFeatureInstall=Webfiltering,MalwarePrevention KEYPATH=bcs.key /silent") -Wait -Passthru).ExitCode
