I asked the apps company to let me know the way to perform silent install. However, BHA refuses to make an answer. Because the way of silent install is not a common. I was surprised. Now a days, even Microsoft support a particular installation.

Hello, I do not know the apps that you mentioned, sorry. Have you extracted it? Or did you check spread files in temp files? In some time, a msi file makes spread files include .exe in win\temp or program files folders. You might already do it.

@scankurban, Thank you for advice. Though I've checked C:WIN\Temp (Like a Daemon file) and C:\Program Files (Like Adobe files) but there is no spread file in any folder. @totoymola I'm very glad for you help. I'll look for a download site. Pls check PM.

totoymola, It’s a good question. Honestly speaking, I don’t know well about the difference between Serial and Password in packaged products. In my case, I think the application asks for a serial number not a password. Because, after I perform normal installation, I deleted my serial information from a registry. Then, the application asks for a serial again when it starts. It does not work without serial information. They also do not work.

Is there any ideas to add user information in Installshield apps? InstallRite is the only way to do now, but I do not want use it.

Thank you for your response, totoymola. #1. Yes, these two apps asked for user information when I perform normal instration (to make setup.iss. see#2) #2. I did D:\BHA_BsRecorderGOLD8\GOLD\setup.exe –R ….like this. ( I also tried “/r”, but there was no difference between two setup.iss files "-R" and "/r") #3. I did #1and #2 but there was no user information in all setup.iss which I made. Why? #4. According to http://www.appdeploy.com/tips/detail.asp?id=18, we can use setup.exe –m1[*****-*****-****-****]　command. “****” means serial numbers. However, in my case, it does not work. Though the site explains about -m[file name] command, I do not understand how do I use -m[file name] command. Do I need “-“ before “m” or not.

You should better to make a new DVD for 2 or more PCs instration in case of Office, see my thread or wpi http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showto...80&hl=tinywoods in case of os http://flyakite.msfnhosting.com/unattended.htm in case of apps, use wpi http://members.aon.at/equinox/wpi/frameLeft.htm

@LazyBoy Sometimes, "/?" or "/help" tell us the list of swiches that the apps use.

Though I’ve looked for information about “Serial in InstallShield Silent”, I can not find the solution. Who knows how I can input serial information in Silent install. Target Applications: Canopus MpegCraft2 and BHA B’s Recorder GOLD8 etc. I made “setup.iss” using –R. However, I found there is no user information in these two applications' setup.iss. And above two applications are asking to input User information during Silent installation. Two apprications have very similar setup.iss files but no User information, The files are slightly different from Power DVD5 that was discussed in MSFN. http://www.msfn.org/board/lofiversion/index.php/t11115.html What I need to input are UserName, CompanyName and Serial. I use “-s” application switches for Silent install.

When the ftp.us.nero.com line is full, you can visit ftp://ftp.jp.nero.com instead of the US server. From 6.6.0.6, it seems that NERO became multi-language apps.

Hi Hasi, As you may already know, I uploaded Japanese Lang.js on a website. Please see below my post. I think that it is nice to have plural Lang.js files language by language to avoid the script error for two byte OS users. http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=38463 Cheers,

Hi, For WMP10, see http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showto...=0entry247400

Hello I upload my files on a website. I revised two files of WPI3.3.5. for adding Japanese language data. I revised these files without obtaining permission from hasi001, sorry. http://tokyo.cool.ne.jp/tiny_woods/Hunter/WPI335_for_JP.rar In my Lang.js, simple Chinese data is deleted. In the future version, I hope that it is nice to have plural Lang.js files language by language to avoid the script error for two byte OS users. @hasi001 Could you please add Japanese language in the future version? @Astalavista Arigatou Astalavista. Tottemo ureshii yo (in Japanese) Cheers, TW

@ bonedaddy Thank you for your kindness and support. Finally, I found the key script line and solved this problem!!! Now my 3.3.5 works well. I hope the next version will not show this kind of error message when Japanese guys install his the new WPI. I promise you to upload a modified Lang.js which contain “Japanese” on this page. I hope this Japanese language data will be adopted in the next Lang.js version. The problem for Japanese OS is a line in simplified Chinese in Lang.js. This is not an error for European language OS. It is cause to two byte character. You can see the screen shot here http://tokyo.cool.ne.jp/tiny_woods/Hunter/Debug.gif Many thanks

@Swimming_Bird No, as you said, WPi.hta does not have more than 130 lines. However, in this case, Line183 is in main.js, I think. I'm talking about 3.3.5 version. I may not able to explain you about it in detail due to lack of my script knowledge and bad English, sorry. For instance, please modified any lines in main.js, you will see an error message like “Line 183” . You can see "#130"over information, I suppose. In addition, this kind of message does not always tell us good information. Foe example, there is something wrong code in other.js., the MS message can inform us “ there is an error Line 183”, wrong information. It is rare case but there is. It is difficult to explain….sorry. I still believe WPI is the nice installer and there is no error for English &European OS. @Bonedaddy Will you send me your WPI.zip( rar or anything) which works on your screen? And, if you have 2 different versions of WIP and if both of WPI are version 3.3.X, could you please send me both of them? I tried WPI 3.3.5 after clean install condition (OS), but it did not work. .

YES, I'M SURE! I DO NOT modified any files!! I downloaded WPI.zip more than 10 times, but all files gave me the error message. Because I got an error message, so I tried to Debug WPI. It was interesting. WPI was never stopping in my Debugger. Running endless…seems strange.

One more things, No error occurred when I stall below members’ WPI. So, I may be able to use them but file versions are not 3.3.X. little bit older.....however, I would like to have a new one.

Though I believed that above error caused due to two byte-Japanese OS. However, I found simple Chinese character in Language.js. I’m confused because Chinese also uses two-byte OS. Then, I install WPI in an old OS NT4 English version. BUT, I got same error message again!! Why!? I just extract wpi.zip and save the folder…and double click WPI.hta. I got the error message. Is there anybody who can provide me the latest version 3.3.5 that dose not make any errors on your screen, and a previous version? I really want to check those 2 files.

@EliasXP Nothing will be continued in this topic if you say so. @TeamE Go back http://members.aon.at/ and check the difference between your files and View example config&Screenshots. Then, we can ask great members your question. I’m also Newbie.

It is the first time for me to use WPI. I’m using wpi Version 3.3.5. I saved WPI-folder just below Install-folder. Then I double crick WPI.hta to start. Suddenly, following error message was appeared. In this picture, you can see WPI was saved on C loot, however, WPI.hta also did not work at $oem$\$1\install\WPI folder, either. I’m Japanese so I use two byte letters OS like Chinese. -Win XP SP2 Pro Japanese -IE 6.029 SP2 128 Is there any person who got same problem and could solve it?

Hi, 1chaoticadult I did not know that. I'll try. Thanks Tinywoods

OK I understand. I'll try this week end. Thank you stebro and Astalavista.

I found another problem. I have 3 PCs, and now I’m trying to make one unattended DVD for my PCs. So, DVD-ROM drives of 3 PCs are not always same drive letters. The 1stPC has F&G-drive as DVD drives. The 2nd PC has D&F. the 3rd PC has D only. I intend to install XP UPGRADE to #1&3 PC. For the 2nd PC, I would like to use 2k. So, I can not use any tool that can simulate key actions. Or I have to use 2k on two PCs and office XP on the rest of one PC. Purpose I’m wrong!?

SteBro, It’s a nice idea. Though I failed in office XP installation in the first try, AutoIT seems to be a good solution for me. I did not know AutoIT remembers everything not only Enter-key action but also mouse action, so that my modified script was corrupted. I may need to modify it again in a clean condition. Anyway, your idea and your script help me very well. In addition, many people are interested in your idea because they downloaded your script file ! Many thanks Tinywoods

All, When I install the latest Shockwave, Yahoo toolbar also installed. How can I avoid to install the cheap toolbar? I do not like Yahoo !! \Shockwave_Installer_FullJ.exe /s
