Automated MSI deployments
runZero uses dynamically generated binaries for the runZero Explorer downloads and this doesn’t always play well with MSI-based installation methods.
To work around this issue, we have provided a shim MSI package that can be used with automated installers. This package has a valid Authenticode signature and can also be verified using the runZero Verifier.
Some components of the application still reference the name "Rumble" for backwards compatibility. All new installations will use runZero for directory, file, and user names.
Windows hosts with Intel Advanced Matrix Extensions (AMX) enabled may experience Explorer instability or crashes. This can affect physical hardware and virtual machines. Disable AMX at the BIOS or host level before deployment. For Windows guests on Hyper-V, enabling Processor Compatibility can mitigate this issue.
EDR, antivirus, and other endpoint protection software on Windows may interfere with Explorer installation or scan behavior. If problems occur, add allowlist exceptions for runZero and npcap/winpcap components or use monitor-only policy modes while validating deployments. In some environments, endpoint protections may need to be disabled for stable operation.
To use this package, deploy it with the URL parameter specified as the organization-specific download URL from the runZero Console Explorers section.
msiexec /i runzero-explorer-installer-amd64.msi URL=https://console.runzero.com
/download/explorer/DT[uniqueToken]/[versionID]/runzero-explorer-windows-amd64.exe
The above command should be entered as one long line with a single URL parameter, but is shown wrapped here.
The MSI shim will verify that the URL contains a valid runZero Explorer binary and install it normally.
Warning: Note that installing with the /a parameter will not work and /i must be used instead.
