Run Configuration Assistant in silent mode

To configure ControlSuite silently, do the following:

  1. Run Configuration Assistant on a single machine. After configuration, the cs-config.txt file is generated with all of the configured properties. The cs-config.txt file is found in the ProgramData folder (C:\ProgramData\Nuance\ControlSuite\cs-config.txt).
  2. Open the machine where you want to silently configure ControlSuite.
  3. Copy the cs-config.txt file from the first machine to a folder on the C drive of the second machine for the properties file path. For example: C:\cs_automation\cs-config.txt.
  4. Open a command prompt, and run C:\Program Files\Kofax\Configuration Assistant\ConfigurationAssistant.exe --noui --propertiesfile:"<path to properties file>" to configure the same properties as on the first machine without the need to enter them in the UI. For example: C:\Program Files\Kofax\Configuration Assistant\ConfigurationAssistant.exe --noui --propertiesfile:"c:\cs_automation\cs-config.txt" configures all properties in the cs-config.txt file.
