Mark.major@thecotswoldgroup.co.uk Hi, Sometimes I (and the end user) am waiting 10+ minutes for the 'retrieving servers' and 'downloading' stages of the online installer. This could all be avoided if I could just grab an offline installer from the Fortinet site via the end-users home Internet or silently transfer an offline installer via TeamViewer/VPN in adv. Installing the FortiClient download: Fortinet Technologies provides their software as a Windows Executable file and therefore installation is as easy as downloading the file FortiClientVPNOnlineInstaller6.4.exe and running it directly after retrieving it.

Installation options
When the administrator creates a FortiClient deployment package in EMS, they choose which setup type and modules to install:
Forticlient Offline Installer Windows 7 64 Bit Download

Upgrading from previous FortiClient versions
FortiClient version 6.2.0 supports upgrade from FortiClient versions 6.0 and later.
Starting with FortiClient 6.2.0, FortiClient EMS 6.2.0, and FortiOS 6.2.0, the FortiClient Endpoint Telemetry license is deprecated. The FortiClient Compliance profile under Security Profiles and the Enforce FortiClient Compliance Check option on the interface configuration pages have been removed from the FortiOS GUI. Endpoints running FortiClient 6.2.0 now register only with FortiClient EMS 6.2.0 and compliance is accomplished through the use of compliance verification rules configured on FortiClient EMS 6.2.0 and enforced through the use of firewall policies. As a result, there are two upgrade scenarios:
- Customers using only a FortiGate device in FortiOS 6.0 to enforce compliance must install FortiClient EMS 6.2.0 and purchase a FortiClient Security Fabric Agent License for their FortiClient EMS installation to continue using compliance features.
- Customers using both a FortiGate device in FortiOS 6.0 and FortiClient EMS running 6.0 for compliance enforcement must upgrade the FortiGate device to FortiOS 6.2.0, FortiClient to 6.2.0, and FortiClient EMS to 6.2.0.
Forticlient 6.0 Offline Installer
FortiClient (Windows)6.2.0 features are only enabled when connected to EMS 6.2.0. If FortiClient (Windows) 6.0 was previously running in standalone mode, ensure to install EMS 6.2.0, apply the license as appropriate, then connect FortiClient (Windows) to EMS before upgrading to FortiClient (Windows)6.2.0. You should first upgrade any endpoint running a FortiClient (Windows) version older than 6.0.0 to 6.0.5 using existing 6.0 upgrade procedures.
See the FortiClient and FortiClient EMS Upgrade Paths for information on upgrade paths and order in which to upgrade Fortinet products.
Downgrading to previous versions
Downgrading FortiClient version 6.2.0 to previous FortiClient versions is not supported.
