I am trying to make worklet to install 3 cisco products and only first one gets installed, I believe I am missing something on the remediation code to make all 3 install

Evaluation Code

1 exit

Remediation Code

Start-Process msiexec.exe '/I cisco1.msi /quiet /norestart /passive'
Start-Process msiexec.exe '/I cisco2.msi /norestart /passive '
Start-Process msiexec.exe '/I cisco3.msi /quiet /norestart /passive '

Good afternoon @curioustoknow !

Your issue is likely overlapping MSI installs - if you send Start-Process without the -Wait switch, the script will proceed and attempt all three installations in quick succession!

This should help:

powershell11 lines

$installers = ‘cisco1.msi’, ‘cisco2.msi’, ‘cisco3.msi’



foreach ( $installer in $installers )

{

    Start-Process -FilePath ‘msiexec.exe’ -ArgumentList ‘/i’, $installer, ‘/qn’, ‘/norestart’, ‘/passive’ -Wait

}

Let me know if you have any trouble.

- Anthony M.
