Hi all,

is it possible somehow to create a standard pritunl.json during client install for all existing and new users at one computer?I found the pritunl.json at %APPDATA%\Pritunl and this contains switches for user interface settings:

`{“disable_tray_icon”:false,“classic_interface”:false,“safe_storage”:false,“window_width”:514,“frameless”:null,“theme”:“dark”,“editor_theme”:“”}`

I would like to set the “disable\_tray\_icon” switch to “true” by default.

Any suggestions how to do that?

Best regards

Mark

There isn’t any option in the client to automatically configure it. There is information on [**silent automated installs**](https://docs.pritunl.com/kb/vpn/client/silent-install) the file can then be updated after the install completes.
