The problem is there is no silent switch for the free edition anymore starting from v3.2.1 ! It's the first thing in their release notes.
QuoteFrom now on silent installation is only available for PDFCreator Business, PDFCreator Terminal Server and PDFCreator Custom

We probably will remove it from Patch My PC soon if they never bring back the silent install switch again.

Pushing people towards their paid versions.   :(

Probably  for the best.  Even though not always installing the junkware the presence of that in their installers causes few AV vendors to flag it.  The used to support installer option  /LOADINF= where you could specify components too from answerfile, but that could be disabled now or next release as well..

Program isn't as needed with Win10 including an adequate basic PDF Printer now.

I understand the free version is not having a silent switch, but since SCCM is an enterprise solution and enterprises don't (or should not) use freeware. I think the paid version can be included. this version can be installed silently.
