Title: inputting a license key with Pathc My PC
Post by: [email protected] on May 22, 2024, 04:39:16 PM
Can someone point me toward a KB that shows the command line arguments for inputting a license key into a Patch My PC packaged app? I tried every search I could think of, and nothing. Thanks,

Hi Jeff,

The command-line arguments will differ per application. If you need to add command-line arguments, use the right-click option "Modify Command Line" as referenced here: https://patchmypc.com/custom-options-available-for-third-party-updates-and-applications#modify-command-line

Note that you only need to put the additional command options there.

For Snagit for example, you would just add: TSC_SOFTWARE_KEY=LICENSEKEY

Thank you, Andrew. I appreciate the comment about SnagIT. I am trying to do that one and Camtasia.

Happy to help! Camtasia's is the same.

You can usually find the command line needed by searching for the product name + silent install on your favorite search engine.

I found Camtasia's here: https://assets.techsmith.com/docs/Camtasia_2023_MSI_Installation_Guide.pdf
