The SetupExtensions tool is a command line utility which is used to install, remove, or repair the UiPath extensions.
The Command Prompt is best used to install extensions in large-scale deployments of Robots. Doing so from Studio only installs them locally.
Note:
Administrator rights are required to install extensions from the Command Prompt.
You can find the SetupExtensions tool in the C:\Program Files\UiPath\Studio\UiPath folder for Enterprise, or the cd %LocalAppData%\UiPath\app-19.x.x\UiPath folder for Preview. Below is the list of supported commands.
