Step 5: Complete the Installation

A Command Prompt (CMD) window will appear, displaying the automated installation process. The script will:

  • Check for required dependencies like .NET 9.
  • Download the latest version of Vineforce Teams Lite.
  • Install the application silently (Please accept any UAC prompts).
  • Create a startup shortcut or scheduled task.
  • Clean up temporary files.

Step 6: Verify the Installation

Vineforce Teams Lite runs silently in the background, so you will not see a main window. You can verify it is running using Task Manager:

  1. Open Task Manager (Ctrl + Shift + Esc).
  2. Go to the Processes or Details tab.
  3. Look for Vineforce Teams Lite under the Background processes section.

If the process appears, the application is installed successfully and is tracking activity in the background.
