Deploying Workshare Professional

Deloying Workshare Professsional is by no means an easy task for configuring the installation if you try and edit the MSI with ORCA. When configuring the MSI to customize the installation of Workshare for office and document management integration, I found the easiest way is to set specific registry keys before the install takes place. If the keys are set first, the MSI will read those keys and configure the app during the installation. Once these keys are installed, you can then run the WorkshareProfessional.msi with the switches /qb- or /qn and nothing else. Of course I installed the prerequisites first before executing the Worshare msi.
