Unattended install of msedge chronium

Hi

I know this site to download: https://www.microsoftedgeinsider.com/en-us/download/

and I get drivers from here: https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/tools/webdriver/

 

Is it possible to do completely unattended install/upgrade like I currently do with chocolatey.

Reason is that https://chocolatey.org/packages/microsoft-edge-insider often lags, and I want to test newer msedgedrivers.

 

I can download with:

curl.exe "<a href="https://c2rsetup.officeapps.live.com/c2r/downloadEdge.aspx?ProductreleaseID=Edge&platform=Default&version=Edge&source=EdgeInsiderPage&Channel=Dev&language=en&Consent=1" target="_blank">https://c2rsetup.officeapps.live.com/c2r/downloadEdge.aspx?ProductreleaseID=Edge&platform=Default&version=Edge&source=EdgeInsiderPage&Channel=Dev&language=en&Consent=1</a>" --output MicrosoftEdgeSetupDev.exe

 

But I could not find any options on the exe file to run it non interactively:

.\MicrosoftEdgeSetupDev.exe /?
.\MicrosoftEdgeSetupDev.exe --help

    those live c2r installers already have embedded installation tag with the appropiate appguid, you don't need switches

     

    well, unless if you want it silent

    start "" /w MicrosoftEdgeSetupDev.exe.exe /silent

     

    you may also add /enterprise to prevent sending omaha pings
