[Install] install=DexpotSetup.exe /S 

• Use the installer’s silent switch (commonly /S or /silent). Confirm the correct switch for the Dexpot version you have.

Add installer directives (nLite addon options)

• Use [registry_addreg] to add registry keys if Dexpot requires preconfigured settings.
• Use [guirunonce] or edit winnt.sif to run configuration commands after the first boot (if you want to auto-configure desktops).
• Use txtsetup_files or dosnet_files only if you must place files into setup text-mode; normally unnecessary for an application addon.

Typical silent-install switches and post-install tweaks

• Silent install: DexpotSetup.exe /S (verify with the specific Dexpot installer; some installers use /silent or /verysilent)
• To register a license automatically, add a registry export or a small .reg under [registry_addreg].
• To enable specific options (start with Windows, number of desktops), apply a .reg file or copy a preconfigured Dexpot settings file into the user/profile location via addon scripts run on first boot (guirunonce).

Building and testing

1. Place the addon folder inside nLite’s Addons directory or point nLite to it when adding AddOns.
2. Run nLite → choose your Windows source → Addons → select Dexpot addon.
3. Build an ISO and test in a VM (VirtualBox/VMware) to confirm:
   • Dexpot installs silently during setup.
   • Settings/registry entries applied as expected.
   • No installer prompts or reboots break the automated flow.

Troubleshooting

• If installer still prompts: confirm correct silent switch and that the installer supports unattended mode (repack with a silent wrapper only if you own the installer and comply with licensing).
• If settings don’t apply: move configuration steps to guirunonce (winnt.sif) so they run after the first Windows logon.
• If addon breaks setup: remove nonessential files and add only the installer + minimal directives; test incrementally.

If you want, I can generate a ready-to-use entries.ini and a guirunonce snippet tuned to a specific Dexpot version and the exact silent-switch for its installer — tell me the Dexpot installer filename/version.
