Hi i am looking for a way to install the 3cx desktop app across all of our workstations.

i have found below thread but it this does not appear to do anything

https://www.3cx.com/community/threads/3cx-desktop-app-custom-install-for-all-users.88291/
msiexec.exe /i C:\3CXDesktopApp-18.7.10.msi ALLUSERS=1 /qn /norestart

if I upload the MSI to our RMM ninja one and try to install it that way this is the command used:
msiexec /i "C:\ProgramData\NinjaRMMAgent\download\_script_2\3CXDesktopApp-18.10.461.msi" /quiet /qn /norestart /log "C:\ProgramData\NinjaRMMAgent\download\_script_2\install_app_script_2.bat-msiexec-log.txt"

this is the log:

You can try the supported and tested method of deploying the desktop app via GPO: https://www.3cx.com/blog/docs/desktop-app-ad-gpo/

The latest version of the Desktop App is 18.10.461.0 and is the version for the new Update 8 build 917 installed on 3CX Free and 3CX SMB.

I am trying to get this to work but so far it does not appear to do anything either, unfortunately.

I missed that in your original post.

Do you have a 3CXDesktopApp folder in this location?
C:\WINDOWS\system32\config\systemprofile\AppData\Roaming

If you open the registry and hit search, can you find results for 3CX?
