Hi Guys,
I’m installing Autodesk Fusion which is only available using an exe installer.
The command is as follows but it’s not waiting until the program installs, which does take a good few minutes.
“Execute-Process -Path ‘C:\temp\Fusion Client Downloader.exe’ -Parameters ‘–globalinstall --quiet’ -Wait”
Is there anything else I can do?
I’m assuming you actually entered the following in your script:
Execute-Process -Path 'C:\temp\Fusion Client Downloader.exe' -Parameters '--globalinstall --quiet' -Wait
Fusion Client Downloader.exe is only a downloading tool, not the actual installer.
It downloads the real installer, launches it and exits while the real installer does it’s job.
You have 2 ways to deal with this:
1- Steal the real installer during installation and launch it with PSADT instead of Fusion Client Downloader.exe
2-Watch the progress of the installation after the Fusion Client Downloader.exe and wait until it’s done.
Thanks. I found the actual installer and this now works on W10 machines but not W11!
Not sure why it’s erroring that localhost can’t be found.

Maybe you get the installer on a win10 PC and Win11 needs a different installer.
If that doesn’t work, you’ll have to force the installer to create a log file for you.
