The TAP-Windows is a network driver used by OpenVPN to establish remote connections.
It is included on its main GUI installer, but it prompts to the user to accept unsigned driver.
OpenVPN Windows installer can be installed unattendedly, for example via SSH or Telnet remote console. Something like:
openvpn-install-2.3.7-I003-i686.exe /S /D=c:\OpenVPN
... and the installation goes OK, except for the TAP-Windows driver, that is not installed at all.
The standalone TAP-Windows driver installer has too a silent installation option:
tap-windows-9.9.2_3.exe /S /D=c:\TapWindows
but it keeps prompting the user to accept the driver installation:
I have not been able to find on the OpenVPN forums any solved threads about a method to install it.
The closest I have found is this set of scripts (.bat and .nis files) on GitHub that are supposed to do the magic, but I have not enough knowledge to use them.
Does anyone know the detailed procedure to perform a silent install of TAP-Windows driver?
I need to solve this for Windows XP and Windows 7 (I know the NDIS installer is different, so maybe the methods are too).
If possible, a solution working on any Windows (Servers, 8 and even 10) would be fine.
NOTE: This similar thread offers a solution based on driver signing, but it is rather incomplete.
Well.. I ended up by making a script to press the "Instalar" button when this windows pops out. Not the best solution but this was what I got. Thanks for sharing. – Math – 2016-04-03T22:13:43.363
