Jito463 Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 (edited) I've tried a number of different options, but I can't seem to make Opera install silently. In fact, when I try, it just launches like it's going to install, then stops doing anything.I've tried using the classic installer with /s, doesn't work.I've tried the regular installer with/s/s /v/qn/s /v/qn /V ALLUSERS=1 CREATE_DESKTOP_ICON=1 CREATE_QUICKLAUNCH_ICON=1 CREATE_STARTMENU_ICONS=1 MULTI_USER_SETTING=0 (also with 1)I've tried the MSI file from the regular installer with/qn/qn ALLUSERS=1 CREATE_DESKTOP_ICON=1 CREATE_QUICKLAUNCH_ICON=1 CREATE_STARTMENU_ICONS=1 MULTI_USER_SETTING=0 (also with 1)/passive /qn ALLUSERS=1 CREATE_DESKTOP_ICON=1 CREATE_QUICKLAUNCH_ICON=1 CREATE_STARTMENU_ICONS=1 MULTI_USER_SETTING=0 (also with 1)msiexec.exe /i <Opera_964.msi> /passive /qn ALLUSERS=1 CREATE_DESKTOP_ICON=1 CREATE_QUICKLAUNCH_ICON=1 CREATE_STARTMENU_ICONS=1 MULTI_USER_SETTING=0 (also with 1)None of these work. Any suggestions? Occassionally I have to reinstall Windows on a customer's machine, and I'd like to add Opera to my silent installs. I already have FireFox silent from another link here, but can't seem to get Opera to work.*EDIT*Bah, never mind. In my attempt to try many different options, I didn't bother to check between each attempt to see if anything was installed. It had got installed at some point, but didn't create any shortcuts. Going back to the classic installer with /s after making sure all traces were removed fixed the problem. Hopefully this will help someone else down the road.

Martin H Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 Yeah, the classic installers by default sets all icons, but the MSI installer dosen't set any icons and hence, needs to be defined on the command-line(btw, for MSIs, then you can safely skip the 'msiexec /i').

Martin H Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 (edited) Just wanted to illustrate how I make my silent/pre-configured Opera installation, so that others maybe can benefit from it...First, I install Opera, and change 'multi user=1' to 'Multi User=0' in "%programfiles%\Opera\operadef6.ini"(this will make the profile and mail folders as subfolders of the Opera program folder, instead of adding them as two additional folders in '%appdata%' and '%usersettings%\Local Settings\Application Data'), and then I start Opera and configure the browser and mail client as i please.Then I make a folder named 'profile' and in there i make two subfolders named 'profile' and 'mail'.I then copy the following files over to the profile folder/subfolders:From '%programfiles%\Opera\profile' to 'profile\profile': opera6.ini ;general settings.opera6.adr ;bookmarks.speeddial.ini ;speedial.cookies4.dat ;cookies.wand.dat ;passwords.contacts.adr ;contacts.From '%programfiles%\Opera\mail' to 'profile\mail':accounts.ini ;mail-accounts settings.signature1.txt ;signature - I delete the text in this file(by default an advert for opera), as else that text will be used as a signature in the bottom of all the mails you send.From '%programfiles%\Opera\program\plugins' to 'profile':NPSWF32.dll ;Flash Player plugin - just download the installer and extract it to get that file.Then i place the Opera classic installer, the profile folder and the following INF into a folder named Opera_v9.64:[Version]Signature=$Windows NT$[DefaultInstall]RunPreSetupCommands=runpresetupcommandsCopyFiles=copyfiles1,copyfiles2,copyfiles3UpdateInis=updateinisAddReg=addreg[DestinationDirs]copyfiles1=16422,Opera\profilecopyfiles2=16422,Opera\mailcopyfiles3=16422,Opera\program\plugins[copyfiles1]opera6.ini,profile\profile\opera6.iniopera6.adr,profile\profile\opera6.adrspeeddial.ini,profile\profile\speeddial.inicookies4.dat,profile\profile\cookies4.datwand.dat,profile\profile\wand.datcontacts.adr,profile\profile\contacts.adr[copyfiles2]accounts.ini,profile\mail\accounts.inisignature1.txt,profile\mail\signature1.txt[copyfiles3]NPSWF32.dll,profile\NPSWF32.dll[updateinis]"%16422%\Opera\operadef6.ini",System,"Multi User=1","Multi User=0"[addreg]HKLM,"SOFTWARE\Classes\.htm",,0x0,"Opera.HTML"HKLM,"SOFTWARE\Classes\.html",,0x0,"Opera.HTML"HKLM,"SOFTWARE\Classes\.mht",,0x0,"Opera.HTML"HKLM,"SOFTWARE\Classes\.mhtml",,0x0,"Opera.HTML"HKLM,"SOFTWARE\Classes\.xht",,0x0,"Opera.HTML"HKLM,"SOFTWARE\Classes\.xhtm",,0x0,"Opera.HTML"HKLM,"SOFTWARE\Classes\.xhtml",,0x0,"Opera.HTML"HKLM,"SOFTWARE\Classes\http","EditFlags",0x1,02,00,00,00HKLM,"SOFTWARE\Classes\http\shell\open\command",,0x0,"""%16422%\Opera\opera.exe"""HKLM,"SOFTWARE\Classes\http\shell\open\ddeexec",,0x0,"""%%1"""HKLM,"SOFTWARE\Classes\http\shell\open\ddeexec\Application",,0x0,"Opera"HKLM,"SOFTWARE\Classes\https","EditFlags",0x1,02,00,00,00HKLM,"SOFTWARE\Classes\https\shell\open\command",,0x0,"""%16422%\Opera\opera.exe"""HKLM,"SOFTWARE\Classes\https\shell\open\ddeexec",,0x0,"""%%1"""HKLM,"SOFTWARE\Classes\https\shell\open\ddeexec\Application",,0x0,"Opera"HKLM,"SOFTWARE\Classes\Opera.HTML",,0x0,"HTML Document"HKLM,"SOFTWARE\Classes\Opera.HTML\DefaultIcon",,0x0,"%16422%\Opera\opera.exe,1"HKLM,"SOFTWARE\Classes\Opera.HTML\shell\open\command",,0x0,"""%16422%\Opera\opera.exe"" ""%%1"""HKLM,"SOFTWARE\Classes\Opera.Image",,0x0,"Image"HKLM,"SOFTWARE\Classes\Opera.Image\shell\open\command",,0x0,"""%16422%\Opera\opera.exe"" ""%%1"""HKLM,"SOFTWARE\Clients\StartMenuInternet",,0x0,"Opera.exe"[runpresetupcommands]Opera_964_classic_Setup.exe /sNote: It's an 'Advanced INF' and hence needs to be installed through advpack.dll and not through e.g. rightclick\Install:rundll32 advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection install.inf,,1PS: Here's an INF which will add an extra rightclick context-menu option for INF files named 'Install (advpack)':[Version]Signature=$Windows NT$[DefaultInstall]AddReg=addreg[addreg]HKLM,"SOFTWARE\Classes\inffile\shell\Install (advpack)\command","",,"rundll32 advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection %1,,1"And in .reg file syntax:[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\inffile\shell\Install (advpack)\command]@="rundll32 advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection %1,,1" Edited June 18, 2009 by Martin H Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

radix Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 This works for me! but for the en setup only. not for the international setup..It works for int. setup, but need to extract the installer with 7-Zip, and run first from Opera Installer.exe. On first screen, choose your language, let say French (France), hit Ok and wait the next window, then go to %temp% and copy from one of those folders two files: Opera installer.msi and 1036.MST (needed for french lang).@echo offstart /wait msiexec /i "Opera installer.msi" /qb! /norestart MULTI_USER_SETTING=0 CREATE_DESKTOP_ICON=1 CREATE_QUICKLAUNCH_ICON=1 ALLUSERS=1 TRANSFORMS="1036.MST"exitor@echo offstart /wait msiexec /i "Opera installer.msi" /qb! /norestart MULTI_USER_SETTING=1 CREATE_DESKTOP_ICON=1 CREATE_QUICKLAUNCH_ICON=1 ALLUSERS=1 TRANSFORMS="1036.MST"exit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
