How to install the application in the background without restarting the computer?

(the computer should be restarted manually after installation), enter:
msiexec /i <package_name> /qn
To install the application in the background and then restart the computer, enter:
msiexec /i <package_name> ALLOWREBOOT=1 /qn

/qn – quiet installation without rebooting
/qn ALLOWREBOOT=1 – quiet installation with rebooting (without asking)
/qb – install without rebooting (only progress bar)
/qb ALLOWREBOOT=1 – installation and request a reboot�
