Silently install multiple exe installers in one folder in PowerShell

I've been learning powershell just for a bit and i was wondering if let's say for example in "D:\installers" folder where i have let's say 15 installers(all inno Setup) it would be possible to run a silent install of all of those exes?

So far i've learnt how to run just one installer on silent which works perfectly fine. I just dont know how i would do it with multiple exes

Start-Process -Wait -FilePath 'D:\Installers\Installer.exe' -ArgumentList '/silent' -PassThru just for one installer

$installers = get-childitem "D:\Installers"  -Filter "*Driver*.exe"
foreach($inst in $installers)
{
    Start-Process -Wait -FilePath ($inst.FullName) -ArgumentList '/silent' -PassThru
}

Get-Childitem can be used to get the installers, and with foreach you can go through the results

You may modify the path follow yours and copy it to powershell (ensure to run as administrator). Powershell will run them in sequence one after another.

Start-Process -FilePath 'D:\Installers\Installer1.exe' -Wait

Start-Process -FilePath 'D:\Installers\Installer2.exe' -Wait

Start-Process -FilePath 'D:\Installers\Installer3.exe' -Wait
