How to Register FileZilla Pro Silently

Windows

After the installation, you can proceed to register the product silently.
Use the parameter --register followed by the --regkey parameter.

This method does not display any windows:

  1. Press Win+R.

  2. In the Run dialog box, type cmd in the Open box.

  3. Press Enter or click OK. A command prompt window opens.

  4. In the command prompt window, type:
    "C:\Program Files\FileZilla Pro\filezilla.exe" --register --regkey=silent,
    XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX
    You may need to adjust the path to where FileZilla Pro is installed on your system. Make sure the path is
    enclosed in quotes if it contains spaces.

  5. Press Enter.

Note: The command ending with -setup.exe is the installer, while filezilla.exe refers to the installed software.
