In earlier versions of SCCM, we only used consolesetup.exe to package and deploy the console. However starting with SCCM version 1902, you need all the below files to install the console properly.


  • ConsoleSetup.exe
  • AdminConsole.msi
  • ConfigMgr.AC_Extension.i386.cab
  • ConfigMgr.AC_Extension.amd64.cab

The Console Setup files are located here – <ConfigMgr site server installation path>ToolsConsoleSetup

First of all copy entire ConsoleSetup folder on Windows 10 machine. Right-click ConsoleSetup and Run as administrator. On the Configuration Manager Console Setup window, click Install.

The console installation is complete. Click Finish.

You can also install the SCCM console via command prompt.

  • Run the command prompt as administrator.

In addition to the above command, Microsoft supplies another command to install the console with language packs.


By default when you install console, it installs with English as default language. Therefore using the below command with LangPackDir switch, you specify the path to the folder that contains the language files.
