Velatir for Desktop ships as a small installer. At first run it downloads the rest of the app and then keeps itself up to date, so this is the only step you take on the device.
Rolling out to a fleet? See Enterprise deployment for Microsoft Intune, Jamf Pro, and other MDM platforms.

​
Build your install command

Enter your ingest key, pick your platform, and copy the command. Generate a key on the Setup tab of the Velatir dashboard.

Requirements

​
Updates and uninstall

The agent checks for new versions every four hours and applies them automatically, so there is no update service to manage. On Windows, the background process runs as the VelatirAgent service. To apply an update immediately, run velatir update --apply. The previous version stays on disk until the new one is confirmed running, so there is no in-between state.
Windows. Remove from Settings → Apps → Installed apps, or run msiexec /x with the product code. This removes the agent, the host, and the VelatirAgent service.If the uninstall is interrupted, your MDM cannot remove the app, or items remain afterwards, see Uninstall cleanup. Devices on a version older than the current installer can also leave artefacts a standard uninstall does not clear.macOS. If this Mac has the profile from Enterprise deployment, remove that profile in your MDM and let the Mac check in before uninstalling. The profile force-installs the extension and stores the ingest key, and MDM writes both back while the profile is still assigned. Then run the bundled uninstaller:
It removes the app and the background services. If an older version left a system extension on the device, a restart finishes removing it. The enterprise removal steps include the commands that confirm the force-install policy is gone.
Using Firefox? Firefox keeps a policy-installed extension after the policy is gone. Chrome, Edge, Vivaldi, and Brave remove it themselves. Restart Firefox, open Menu → Add-ons and themes → Extensions, and choose Remove next to Velatir. If Remove is greyed out, the policy is still on the Mac.
