Hi,
I intend to rollout the Microsoft Malicious software removal tool
through the login script in quiet mode (/q).

Does anyone have experience on what will happen if the tool finds an
infected file on the user PC.

Will it respect the quiet mode and just log the entry into the file
then exit, or will it ignore the quiet mode and prompt something to the
user (which I do not want) ?

Thanks.

Mark

Mark,

If you deploy the tool in quiet mode (/q) and if the tool finds an infected
file, it will just log the entry into the log file and exit. It will NOT
prompt the user with UI.
