Title
Is there an msi version of the installation? -
Description
On the Product Download page, the installation file is an exe. But some companies do not allow downloads for exe files.
Is there an msi version that can be downloaded instead?
-
Resolution
For some products an msi version is available for download. If it is, it will be listed in the Product Download page as something like "MSI (Special Installation Only)", or may just note ".MSI Installer"
The msi version of the install will only install the product itself and will not include any other product installation that might usually be bundled with the exe installer and Suites. To get the installation files for these other licensed products, look up each product individually and check for the separate msi installer to download.
All files can be downloaded from here
Example:

The "MSI Installer (Special Installation Only)" is an msi and is only for installing Toad itself. It will not include SQL Optimizer.Search for "SQL Optimizer for SQL Server" and download the listed msi download "Quest SQL Optimizer for SQL Server 10.0 MSI Installer". -
Additional Information
Note, each download file has a link for further details about the installer. Please also check that for further details. With Toad for Oracle 12.9, the MSI installer is packaged into one zip file with the rest of the Suite software. If no msi option is listed, please contact Support to review this issue. A product specific workaround may be possible.
