For ZENworks, this is what I normally do:


1. Create a New Bundle.

Step 1: Windows Bundle

Step 2: Choose Empty Bundle

Fill out Bundle Name Folder, Icon, Description as desired.


2. Under the Actions tab, in the Install tab, click Add > Install File(s)

Ninite Online Installer Package

Upload NinitePro.exe and set the Destination Directory to somewhere on the local drive.


3. Under the Actions tab, in the Install tab, click Add > Launch Executable

Command: point to the NinitePro.exe executable

Command line parameters: use the parameters you desire.
