Proceeding without problems, difficulties, or complications. Can be used as an adjective or adverb.
Die Installation der neuen Software verlief völlig problemlos.

The word is made up of 'Problem' (problem) and the ending '-los' (-less). The ending '-los' means 'ohne' (without) and can be attached to many nouns to form an adjective (e.g., 'arbeitslos' = unemployed, 'harmlos' = harmless).
Er kaufte ein Ticket für eine sorgenlose Reise in die Sonne.
He bought a ticket for a carefree trip to the sun.
'Problemlos' (trouble-free/without problems) can be used as an adjective before a noun or as an adverb to describe a verb. As an adjective, it is declined; as an adverb, it remains unchanged.
Das war eine problemlose Reparatur.
That was a trouble-free repair.
As an adverb, 'problemlos' (without problems/smoothly) is often combined with verbs such as 'funktionieren' (to function/work), 'verlaufen' (to proceed), 'klappen' (to work out), or 'möglich sein' (to be possible).

without
'ohne Weiteres' and 'problemlos' have very similar meanings: something is possible without difficulty or works well. 'problemlos' can be used as an adjective or adverb, for example 'eine problemlose Anmeldung' (a trouble-free registration) or 'das klappt problemlos' (that works without any problems). 'ohne Weiteres' is a fixed expression and fits especially well when you want to say that something is easily possible. Important: not every 'ohne' means 'problemlos'. Only 'ohne Weiteres' has this meaning.
