Can Cyclone IV and V devices be installed In Quartus Prime Lite Edition from a command line?

Question

I work for a university and we have to deploy to a gang of share computers Cyclone V. I have no knowledge of this Prime software, what it does, and how it does it. But, because I know PowerShell I have been tasked to find a way to deploy these devices remotely.

As I've found thus far, the device installer looks to only come in a GUI form. If anyone knows a CLI method, I would be grateful.

Thanks in advance

Thanks for the information. It lead me into a good direction. I was able to discover the dev_install.exe has somewhat of a command line option that can me viewed with the --help option.

However, it does not appear to have the option to select and install the .qdz files.

My goal is to add Cyclone V to the device family unattended on many of out lab workstations.

This does not work.

dev_install.exe --unattendedmodeui none --mode unattended --downloaddir c:\intelFPGA_lite\23.1std\quartus\common\devinfo\dev_install --accept_eula 1

Usually when using the GUI, if the .qdz file is in the same location as the installer, the default is that it will install that device.  Are you saying you have the .qdz file available in that location and it's not getting installed?
