Product Name: Silently Install Bitdefender Security Agent

Description : Do not alter the Windows Downloader file name. Otherwise, the installation files will not download from the Bitdefender servers.
Because Microsoft Edge may trim long file names such as the one of Windows Downloader, we recommend using another browser.
To download BEST installer:

Log in to GravityZone Control Center.
Navigate to Network > Packages.
Select the installation package you want to download.
Important: This procedure currently does not support installation packages with proxy settings.
Click Download at the upper side of the table and select Windows Downloader.
The installation package is saved to your default download location as an EXE file.

Instructions :

Follow the steps in the description to acquire the exe.

Download the MSI Wrapper archive: http://download.bitdefender.com/business/misc/kb1695/eps_installer_signed.zip?adobe_mc=MCMID%3D15681366186604425691759265634141767514%7CMCORGID%3D0E920C0F53DA9E9B0A490D45%2540AdobeOrg%7CTS%3D1606095631

    Does the eps file still exist? I used the BEST_downloaderWrapper.msi. The link no longer works so I tried to improvise. No joy. I have the BEST Managed folder. The wrapper and setupdownloader are in the BEST folder.

    What did I miss?

    Link the API in VSA there is an inventory sync option once enabled. Ive found the install happens within 20 minutes of detection.
