For those using the MSI format:

For those using the EXE format, you’ll first need to create an INF file and then proceed with the installation:
:: Creation of the INF
"%~dp0UltraVNC_1_2_12_X64_Setup.exe" /saveinf="%~dp0installation.inf"
:: Installation
"%~dp0UltraVNC_1_2_12_X64_Setup.exe" /loadinf="%~dp0installation.inf"
Configuring UltraVNC
After installation, you’ll need to configure the server part of UltraVNC. Retrieve the UltraVNC.ini file from the « Program Files » directory.
Managing the Firewall
To ensure UltraVNC works seamlessly, you might need to open a port in the Windows firewall. Use the following command:
netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name="VNC(5900)" dir=in action=allow protocol=tcp localport=5900
Exporting/Importing Configuration
For those who wish to configure rights via Active Directory, the MSLogonACL tool is essential. For configurations with a password, this step might not be necessary. Use the following commands:
MSLogonACL /e file => to export the configuration
MSLogonACL /i file => to import the configuration
