Installing the DeepL app for Windows machine-wide

  • Updated

Is it possible to install the DeepL app for Windows machine-wide/system-wide?

Yes, you can perform a machine-wide/system-wide installation of the DeepL app for Windows.

To do so:

  1. Download the regular DeepLSetup.exe installer
  2. Run it with the --machine command-line argument to perform a machine-wide installation

You can also add the argument --silent to perform an unattended installation. When installing the DeepL app machine-wide the following additional components are installed:

  • Two scheduled Windows tasks in the sub-folder "Zero Install". They check for updates and download them.
  • A Windows service named "Zero Install Store Service". This service verifies and installs updates.

If you use SCCM/InTune to automatically distribute the app, you can use the presence of the following registry key as the "Detection Method":

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\https%3a##appdownload.deepl.com#windows#0install#deepl.xml
