Maya Silent Install (Windows 10) Blocked by Autodesk Privacy Statement Modal Dialog

[rick.shahid]

While silently installing Maya 2022 (or 2023) on Windows 10 with the --silent command line switch, the Autodesk Privacy Statement dialog (see attached snip) blocks the process completion. How can I enable acceptance of the privacy statement via a silent install process?

Hello @rick.shahid, 

The Privacy Statement message is prompted after first launch as it is a prerequisite for each user to decline or agree.

There is a community post on the subject "How to Suppress the AutoDesk Privacy Statement ".

Hi @natasha.l,

The privacy dialog is popping up during silent / automated installation and it is blocking the completion of the installation process since there is no logged in user. A silent installation should not create a blocking / modal dialog.

Is there any additional command-line switch that can be added to Setup.exe --silient to suppress / accept the privacy statement?

Thanks.

Rick
