in my bat file i have

ECHO.
ECHO Installing AVG Free
ECHO Please wait...
start /wait %systemdrive%\install\AVGFree\setup.exe /HIDE /@ avg_net.cfg


but it doesnt instal, nor even give an error message



any ideas?


thanks

bump...

or any other free antivirus that works?

I work for a small OEM, and we install AVG 6 FE on new machines as a basic AV for the customer. I, too, have been having issues with the preinstall. If anyone could assist in this, I would greatly appreciate it. Is it possible this method only works for the pro version, and not the free edition?

judging by the amount of people who have viewd and not replyed too this topic ...i dont think it will work

either that, or there is a hell of a lot of ignorant ppl


in the sticky topic at the top Strat has a AUTO IT script for AVG free, but the download link doesnt work
I pm'd him days ago... but he too falls into that ignorant category

...

have u looked here?

http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=10705&st=10
there is a VBscript from Schadenfroh 4 the AVG free edition

Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
WshShell.Run ("setup.exe")
WScript.Sleep 4000
WshShell.SendKeys "~"
WScript.Sleep 1000
WshShell.SendKeys "~"
WScript.Sleep 1000
WshShell.SendKeys "AVG-1-17354670-NTZ"
WScript.Sleep 1000
WshShell.SendKeys "~"
WScript.Sleep 1000
WshShell.SendKeys "~"
WScript.Sleep 1000
WshShell.SendKeys "~"
WScript.Sleep 1000
WshShell.SendKeys "~"
WScript.Sleep 18000
WshShell.SendKeys "~"
WScript.Sleep 1000
WshShell.SendKeys "~"
WScript.Sleep 1000
WshShell.SendKeys "~"
WScript.Sleep 1000
WshShell.SendKeys "~"

im not familiar with vb scripts?

could you please explain how too do it thanks:)

and what did the admin remove?

hi,

you could also use InstallRite to get it working. In my opinion you should give it a try...

hope this helps a bit

cya

Killer Bee

just save this VBScript as setup.vbs or whatever in the same folder where the setup.exe from AVG is
maybe u must change the product key in this script

then just execute this script
no idea if this works, try it

thanks gonna try it out

i take it i can just add it like this too my bat file?....


ECHO.
ECHO Installing AVG Free
ECHO Please wait...
start /wait %systemdrive%\install\AVG Free\AVG.vbs


no swithces?

also must the avg_net.cfg be present ?

ok it works:) great stuff...

but is it possible too make that vbs untick "restart now" at the end of the installation?

thanks
