Using Licensed Program 5770-XE1 as the installation source

When using the IBM® i Access for Windows Licensed Program as the installation source, you can use cwblaunch.exe or setup.exe to start the install.

When you use either method to start the installation wizard, one of two installation images are used. These installation images are based on the type of processor for the PC. There is an image for a 32-bit processor and a second image for a 64-bit AMD processor.

You can automate the installation choices in the installation wizard by using the command line to pass public properties and parameters to the program, regardless of the method used to start the installation wizard. See the Using command line parameters to change the install behavior topic for details.
