10. Add a deployment type for x64 - CRM2016 Client installation to the Application.

11. Deployment Type Properties may look like below for x64-Install-CRM2016Outlook

Command line used above : SetupClient.exe /Q /l "%SYSTEMDRIVE%\Temp\CRM_2015_Install.log"

Used MSI Product Code for detection. {0C524D20-1409-0080-8A9E-0C4C490E4E54}

13. After creating the application Distribute the content to the Distribution Points and make sure the Content Distribution Progress shows as "Installed" and deploy the application to a client machine.

14. Once the client installed the CRM for Outlook Successfully, it will have the Installation Logs under "%SYSTEMDRIVE%\Temp" as below.

15. In case of failures, you can refer the CRM_2015_Install.log for errors.
