Before you start

With the installation of this solution you acknowledge that you have read these instructions carefully and performed a system backup before starting. Support for this solution will be provided to the best of my ability, as there are other applications involved there may be limited capabilities to resolve all issues.

Installation Requirements

Ninite Solution is separate from your Ninite Pro subscription.

Before starting the installation of Ninite Solution please ensure that you have completed the following tasks.

  1. Perform a full system backup

  2. Create the following folder structure on your LTShare, which you can find either directly on your ConnectWise Automate serer, or via the mapped share on your workstation. usually found at L:\

    • LTSHARE\Transfer\Scripts\MP\Ninite

  3. Download Ninite Pro Classic from the Ninite Website; which requires a Pro Subscription and rename it to NiniteOne.exe and then place the executable into the folder created in step 2.

Note

  1. If you are using the Ninite Pro Trial or a Newer download of Ninite Pro you will need to rename the downloaded executable to NiniteOne.exe

  2. Ensure that you've downloaded the Classic executable not the Agent Based installer, classic executable can be downloaded at www.ninite.com/me

  3. ConnectWise Automate Cloud (HostedRMM) users can access the LTShare using WebDAV see more: https://docs.connectwise.com/ConnectWise_Automate_Documentation/020/010/080
