installing Studio One 5 Professional - exe
First, I'd ask the developer about this. Implementing options for silent / unattended installation is their (PreSonus, in this case) job and only they can do it. As they provide no documentation on it at all (yes, I googled it too :)), I'm afraid it's simply not available.
Apparently, according to https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwj6pZTI1P_3AhWau6QKHT00BwQQFnoECAcQAQ&url=https%3A%2F%2Fsilent-install.net%2Fsoftware%2FPreSonus-Audio-Electronics%2FPreSonus-Studio-One-3%2F3.0.2.34331&usg=AOvVaw0p-UhvPd4YQck-zmkRwmpd, Studio 3 supported the /s parameter for its setup.exe. It might be worth a shot. Silent installation aside, I assume the installer will not activate/register/configure the product (as this requires account credentials, apparently).
If you're lucky, the developer provides some kind of CLI-tool for that... I wouldn't hold my breath though. You next best shot would be to see if the setup stores something about activation in registry (using a tool like https://github.com/Seabreg/Regshot or something) and trying to see if you can clone that.

Sorry for the late reply! The software is run as a custom install by default is there a way to run as a full install via intune/scripting? - AB21805May 27, 2022Bronze ContributorThank you I tried /s on a local machine at it worked how would I uninstall this via command line? I still need to test installing via intune yet but I will keep you updated!

It sounds like the setup.exe is actually just a wrapper for a .MSI. Is there a part in the setup-process where it starts unpacking data? If so, you should be able to unpack it yourself. There's a few ways to do that... you could try opening it with 7-Zip, or maybe the /x parameter actually works.
Tip: setup.exe /? or setup.exe /h may yield some more information on the possibilities.
Once unpacked, you're probably left with a MSI-file (and maybe some other payload-parts). This is basically the real installer. Each product has its own MSI GUID, which can also be used to uninstall it like so:
msiexec.exe /x {MSI GUID} /qn
- /x means uninstall;
- /qn means "quiet" (no UI or interaction).
That's just one of many options and I encourage you experiment.
- AB21805Jul 20, 2022Bronze ContributorHi is there no way of installing the full installation rather than the custom? When installed using /s I click on the app which then requires all add ins / sounds if we are able to install the full version this will bypass any user interaction
Thanks in advance
