You can automate the installation and uninstallation and also the registration and deregistration of FileZilla Pro on Windows using PowerShell scripts.
The PowerShell script below installs and registers FileZilla Pro:
Note: The script expects the installation file to be in the same directory as the script.
# install.ps1
# Install and register FileZilla Pro
$FileZillaProInstallPath = Join-Path -Path $PSScriptRoot -ChildPath “FileZilla_Pro_3.
˓→69.1_win64-setup.exe”
# Silent install
$Process = Start-Process -FilePath $FileZillaProInstallPath -ArgumentList “/S /
˓→ user=all” -PassThru -Wait
if ($Process.ExitCode -eq 0) {
Write-Host “Installation successful, registering…”
$registrationKey = “XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX”
Start-Process -FilePath “C:\Program Files\FileZilla Pro\FileZilla.exe” –
˓→ArgumentList “–register –regkey=silent,$registrationKey” -Wait
}
else {
Write-Host “Installation failed”
}
The PowerShell script below deregisters and uninstalls FileZilla Pro.
Note: The script expects FileZilla Pro to be installed in the standard location under C:\Program Files\.
FileZilla Pro
# uninstall.ps1
# Unregister and uninstall FileZilla Pro
$registrationKey = “XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX”
Start-Process-FilePath “C:\Program Files\FileZilla Pro\FileZilla.exe”-ArgumentList
˓→ “–deregister –regkey=$registrationKey” -Wait
Start-Process -FilePath “C:\Program Files\FileZilla Pro\uninstall.exe” -ArgumentList
˓→ “/s”-Wait -Verb RunAs
The scripts can be manually launched from the PowerShell prompt, for example:
.\install.ps1
Or as parameter to powershell.exe, for example, for Windows Intune:
powershell.exe -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File .\install.ps1
