I would like to include getdiz in my unattended CD.....

Getdiz is a nice compact and handy nfo viewer. I've always used it so far and I would like to include it in my CD.... But I can't find out the silent switches... Maybe someone who can help me? The program can be found here: http://www.dissoft.com/cgi-bin/download.cgi?1642&na

Thanx a lot in advance

hi,

it uses a wise Installer - plz try it with "/s" and report back here.

/s makes the readme show up but doesnt install anything

You should kill that windows:with Kill_Window.bat (that I put in _:\Windows\System32)
All of this could be simplier

hi,

just tested and



does the trick

Killer Bee

make a batch like this:

getdiz.cmd


that's all?

just run getdiz.cmd?

Get pskill from Sysinternals

All you need to have GetDiz working is:

- Msifont.fon
- GetDiz.exe
- Some reg keys

It's easy!

@ZoSTeR: Allready got the PS-Toolkit don't worry

@mazin: What regkeys? That's where u need the installation right?!

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.diz]
@="GetDiz.Document"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.ini]
@="GetDiz.Document"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.nfo]
@="GetDiz.Document"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications\GetDiz.exe]

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications\GetDiz.exe\shell]

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications\GetDiz.exe\shell\open]

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications\GetDiz.exe\shell\open\command]
@="\"@ProgFiles\\GetDiz\\GetDiz.exe\" \"%1\""

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\GetDiz.Document]
@="GetDiz Document"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\GetDiz.Document\shell]

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\GetDiz.Document\shell\open]

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\GetDiz.Document\shell\open\command]
@="\"@ProgFiles\\GetDiz\\GetDiz.exe\" \"%1\""

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Fonts]
"MSI Console"="Msifont.fon"

just tested and didnt work a single bit

The problem is that the "Display Readme file" option is selected by default.

Why don't you email them, so that they disable it?

I've emailed them... But no response... Anywayz... I;m trying your method atm... with copying the files and importing the regkeys without the setup files. Hope it works, so I won't need that setupfiles anymore.

Btw pskill getdiz... automatically kills the setup process... so it doesn't even get the change to install....

You can extract the exe, then copy the needed files to your Program File.

"C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\GetDiz30\getdiz30.exe" /x c:\getdiz

Yeah I found out Anywayz your method is working fine now Thanx a lot

Found out what? Something new?

No lol, that I can use the /x swich to extract the files But that's not important in this case now is it?

mazin, would you be so kind to take a look at this one for me? http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=18861

thanx

Attached is a package (28 kb) prepared to silently install getdiz30.

You don't have to use switches. Only, add this line to your batch file:

Start /wait %systemdrive%\Install\getdiz30\getdiz30.msi

Before you can install getdiz30 with this package, do the following:

1- Install getdiz30 using its original package.

2- Copy these files from C:\Program Files\GetDiz\, then paste them in "\Program Files\GetDiz\" inside this package.

- GetDiz.exe
- GetDiz.chm
- Readme.txt

3- Copy this file from C:\WINDOWS\Fonts\, then paste it in "\WINDOWS\Fonts\" inside this package.

- Msifont.fon

Now, you are ready to use getdiz30.msi to install your program. You can uninstall it from Control Panel (Add or Remove Programs) as usual.


If you'd have bugs, please report them.
