# Installing empower® Express by Command Line (CMD)

## If you need to install empower® Express via command line (CMD), please follow the steps below

#### [![empower Full msi](https://empower.express/hs-fs/hubfs/empower%20Install%20Files/empower%20Full%20msi.jpg?width=670&height=377&name=empower%20Full%20msi.jpg)](https://empower.express/hubfs/empower%20Install%20Files/9.10.396%20Full%20and%20Lite%20MSI/empowerSuite-express_full%20396_install.zip?hsLang=en)

#### Before installing

1. Download the install file.
2. Unzip or extract the downloaded install zip file.
3. Ensure that the MSI installer and the Payload folder remain in the same folder when you run the MSI installer.
4. Please note that as the installer is a 'per user', it must be installed in the user context.

#### Command Line

Below is the basic command line:  
**msiexec /i empowerSuite-express.msi /q /l\*v installer.log**   
**ADDLOCAL=PowerPoint,charts,sync,autoupdater**

***Important:** Please do not forget the ADDLOCAL section of the command line.*

#### Frequent Questions

| ##### Question | We have installed empower**®** via command line. Why is empower**®** not visible on the user's profile? |
| --- | --- |
| ###### Answer | Did you install from a network drive (for example: OneDrive, or any kind of fileshare system) i.e. you did not install from a local location? If you answer 'yes' to the above, please refer to the below table: ![](https://empower.express/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Jul-21-2026-12-20-38-1378-PM.png?width=670&height=305&name=image-png-Jul-21-2026-12-20-38-1378-PM.png) |

| ##### Question | Why do we receive the following error message? ![](https://empower.express/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Jul-21-2026-12-20-19-6660-PM.png?width=417&height=201&name=image-png-Jul-21-2026-12-20-19-6660-PM.png) |
| --- | --- |
| ###### Answer | This error message implies that empower**®** was installed via local admin and that the user does not have admin rights to this location. Installing from this location will therefore not work. |

| ##### Question | How do we uninstall via Command Line (CMD)? |
| --- | --- |
| ###### Answer | To uninstall, please use the below command line: **msiexec /i empowerSuite-express.msi /q /l\*v installer.log** **REMOVE=PowerPoint,charts,sync,autoupdater** |

| ##### Question | We are unable to use a 'per user' installer due to restrictions within our company's IT infrastructure. Is a 'per machine' installer available ? |

| ###### Answer | Please contact us at [support@empower.express](mailto:support@empower.express) and provide us with a brief description of the reason you require a 'per machine' installer. Many thanks in advance. |
