Tableau Desktop .msi file may look similar to this, tableau-setup-std-tableau-6-1.11.0724.1830.msi.

Replace"fullfilename.msi" with the full file name you noted in step

tableau-setup-std-tableau-6-1.11.0724.1830.msi /l*v logfile.txt.
Step 10 (optional):If an error or other
issue occurs during installation, navigate to the folder you created in step 6.
It will contain the installation log called "logfile.txt".https://www.facebook.com/groups/15888884513646
