When you plan to install the entire toolkit, the Microsoft SharePoint Administration Toolkit installer supports the use of a quiet installation using the /quiet switch. However, to script partial installations, the following command must be used to extract the Msat.msi from MicrosoftSharePointAdministrationToolkit.exe:

MicrosoftSharePointAdministrationToolkit.exe /extract:<path>

where path is the location of where the extracted files will reside.

After the Msat.msi file has been extracted from the MicrosoftSharePointAdministrationToolkit.exe file, you can use the following feature IDs with the Msat.msi file.

Feature ID list and properties

The following table shows the feature IDs you would use when a quiet mode installation or uninstallation is run.
