Architecture	Scope	Type	Silent switches	Source
x64	user	EXE NSIS	Custom: /currentuser	Default for NSIS (Nullsoft)

Declared by publisher means the switches come straight from the winget manifest the publisher (or community maintainer) submitted to microsoft/winget-pkgs.
Default for {type} means the manifest doesn't specify silent switches, so the framework's standard switches are shown (e.g. /S for NSIS, /quiet /norestart for MSI).

Frequently asked questions

What is the silent install command for Ascend?

Ascend uses EXE (NSIS). After downloading the installer, run: ascend-uc.exe /S /currentuser. The silent install switches are /S.

How do I deploy Ascend via Intune or Configuration Manager?

Use winget for the cleanest path: winget install --id Serverdata.Ascend --exact 2.30.90 --silent --accept-package-agreements --accept-source-agreements. If winget isn't viable in your environment, package the publisher's installer directly using the silent switches above.
