Audience: IT Professionals
The Setup.exe command line is used for very few operations in Office 2013 Preview (just as in Office

/admin
/adminfile [path]

are installing.
/admin
Runs the Office Customization Tool to create a Setup customization file (.msp file).

\\server\share\Office15\setup.exe /admin

Note:
The /adminfile command-line option can be used only during initial installation of the product.
The recommended location for customization files is the Updates folder at the root of the network

on the command line. Setup automatically finds the customization file that matches the product that is
