Many thanks for the quick response I have done a bit more searching and I am fearly confident that this is wright for Windows 8.1 Pro VL (IR1_CPRA_X64FREV_EN-US_DV5) Unfortunately I do not have MSDN or Technet subscription so I can not confirm it from there either.

Hi all In Windows 7 there used to be ISO disk labels inside the ISO's to identify the various versions of Windows 7 here are some examples (GRMCHPXFREO_EN_DVD) for Windows 7 with SP1 Home Premium RTM OEM x64 English (GRMCPRXFREO_EN_DVD) for Windows 7 with SP1 Professional RTM OEM x64 English (GRMCULXFREO_EN_DVD) for Windows 7 with SP1 Ultimate RTM OEM x64 English (GRMCENXVOL_EN_DVD) for Windows 7 with SP1 ENTERPRISE RTM Volume license OEM x64 English Can any one help me out regarding the equivalent in Windows 8.1 in particular I am after the following Windows 8.1 Pro RTM OEM 64k English US or UK with no updates Windows 8.1 Enterprise RTM OEM 64k English US or UK with no updates In windows 8.1 Enterprise I think it mite be this IL3_CPRA_X64FRED_EN-US_DV5 but I am not sure on this. I am sure that this question has been answered here in these Forums before but I can not seem to find it so please forgive me if it has already been answered Many thanks Chris Braines

You are absolutely wright I failed to notice that was a UPX file but of more significance I am totally new to UPX files and don't know how to deal with them. Armed with this new information I have done some more research there seem plenty of applications that will decompress these files I am using a free one FreeUPX version 1.4 which can be downloaded from Softpedia here is the link http://www.softpedia.com/progDownload/Free-UPX-Download-97041.html While this application clearly decompresses the PhotoZoom Pro 4 Setup.exe file packed size bing 17.9Mb and the unpacked size being 18.7Mb but there is still no way of ext rating the files from the installer I have tried WinRAR 7Zip and Universal Extractor but none of these Programs work. I have also looked for any applications that allow you to extract files from memory but as of yet I have been unable to find any

Dear dencorso Many thanks for your quick reply. I download the program you suggested but unfortunately I don't have enough knowledge to be able to use it. Anyway it got me thinking further and I came up with the idea of using Process Explorer to see if it would reveal any details of the type of installer that is being used by the program but after examining all the strings and data sections of this installer I have not been able to ascertain which installer is being used. I have also tried using the Universal Extractor to see if I could extract the files to a temporary folder but unfortunately the extraction fails however despite this the Universal Extractor seems to indicate that the type of installer be used is a Installshield I will do some more experiments using switches for the Installshield to see if the Program will install itself silently.Beyond this I don't have enough knowledge to take things further but I am confident that more advanced members will have better ideas on how to achieve a silent install for this Program.

Yes I forgot to mention this but it does not respond to either the /? or /help switch either which if I am not mistaken would indicate that the Program uses a msi installer. I have also tried using the %temp% trick to see if it extracts any files to the temp folder which unfortunately it does not do.

Can anyone help me regarding the silent install switches for PhotoZoom Pro 4.0 I have tried to install the program using the following switches which have proved unsuccessful 1) /qn /norestart it does not appear to be a msi installer 2) /VERYSILENT /SP- /NORESTART it does not appear to be a inno installer 3) /S If anyone could help me out on this one I would be most grateful.

I may have approached this from the wrong angel after my original post I came up withe the idea to make a winrar SFX file which while is not as good as editing this Script dose provide a easy way to install this program silently.If anyone has been following this thread here is what I have come up with. You will need the following items WinRar itself YourUnistaller2010 setup file which you can download from this Softpedia link http://www.softpedia.com/progDownload/Your-Uninstaller-Download-29334.html PsKill.exe which again you can download from Softpedia at this link http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/System-Miscellaneous/PsKill.shtml RunHiddenConsole.exe which can be downloaded from these forums at this link http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/49184-tool-hide-console-command-line-windows/ You will find it at the bottom of the page. Once all the components have been downloaded you are ready to start. 1) First make a command file and name it YourUninstaller2010_Install.cmd Then paste this code into it. @echo off ECHO This Batch file will install YourUninstaller 2010 Pro 32k ECHO After the Instalation has finished pskill.exe will be run to prevent ECHO the program's main Window from opening. ECHO yusetup7.exe /VERYSILENT /SP- /NORESTART pskill.exe -t urmain.exe Exit 2) Then make a empty folder on your Desktop and name it YourUninstaller2010 3) Place all four files into this empty folder pskill.exe RunHiddenConsole.exe YourUninstaller2010_Install.cmd yusetup7.exe 4) Using the Windows Explorer open up this folder and select Edit from the menu and then again Select All 5) Then right clic and select from the Contex menu Add to arcive 6) WinRar will know display the name of the arcive diplayed at the top it should read as follows YourUninstaller2010.rar 7) now simply edit the name by removing the .rar file extension and chaning it to .exe YourUninstaller2010.exe 8) Leave all other settings unchanged and press OK 9) the new arcive will know appear in the same folder with the name of YourUninstaller2010.exe 10) Open the new file with WinRar and select Comment from the menu and paste this code into the small window ;The comment below contains SFX script commands Setup=RunHiddenConsole.exe /w YourUninstaller2010_Install.cmd TempMode Silent=1 Overwrite=1 Title=YourUninstaller2010 Pro 32k RunHiddenConsole.exe which will hide the command window during the programs instalation 11)If like me you are using Windows 7 it may be neccessary to disable the UAC this can be done from the Contol Panel 12)and finaly run the new program by selecting Run as Addministrator 13)I am sure this is not the best way to install this program but it dose offer a simply method which less advanced members like me can do and please if anyone has any improvments on this any comments would be appreciated

I hope this has not been asked be for so please except my apologizes if it has. I am trying to install YourUninstaller Pro 2010 silently with this switch /VERYSILENT /SP- /NORESTART The Program for most parts installs completely silently but right at the end the Programs main menu appears.I think I am wright in saying that to prevent this from happening the Inno setup script has to be edited Using the Inno Setup Compiler.I successfully extracted the script which is here but I am not sure what to edit in this script. It think it maybe this found under Run part of this script but again I am not sure on this,so I would be most grateful if someone could put me wright on this. It mite even be possible to register the program as well if anyone has any further ideas on this it would be great BY REMOVING THESE LINES IT SHOULD BE POSSIBLE TO INSTALL THE PROGRAM USING THIS SWITCH BUT NOT SURE ON THIS ***************************************************************************************************************************************************************** /VERYSILENT /SP- /NORESTART [Run] Filename: "{app}\urmain.exe"; Parameters: "-buildcache"; StatusMsg: "Searching installed applications, this may take a few minutes..."; ----------- Remove ?

chrisbraines, here is the link to the Unattended $OEM$ structure for XP. I could not find one for W7. I think you can get the right idea here. I suspect you will have trouble using the $OEM$ folder with the User path because the users have not been created when the $OEM$ folder contents are copied. Enjoy, John. Dear John, Many thanks for you quick response and referring me to the Unattened Website.I may have solved the problem of adding shortcuts to the Sart\All Programs menu in Windows 7. I have rearranged my $OEM$ folders.The new layout is as follows $OEM$\$1\Users\Default\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\"add your shortcuts here" This seems to be working ok for me.I do know that there are quite alot of differences in the layout of $OEM$ folders between XP and Windows 7.It has caught me out on quite a few occasions.Anyway it is working fine for me know and I do hope that anyone else following this thread will find this useful.

I do apologize if this question has been asked before but I could not find any reference to it in this Forum. I am trying to add some Shortcuts to the Start\All Programs menu in Windows 7 Home Premium 64K edition. In my normal Windows 7 the Shortcuts are located at the following C:\Users\Chris\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\*.Ink Chris being my User Account I would like to add these Shortcuts to $OEM$ folders but I am not shore where to place them.I think it may be this but again I am not shore on this. $OEM$\$1\Users\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\*.Ink If all else fails I could mount the Image and add the Shortcuts to the install.wim but I would rather use the $OEM$ Folders instead. If anyone could put me right on this one I would be most grateful. Many thanks Chris UK

Dear untermensch. Many thanks for you quick reply.I can see the way forward know I use WinRar SFX's files to perform most of my application Installs.It occurs to me that all I need to do is pack both the 32Bit Setup File and its 64Bit counterpart into one SFX file and use a Batch file to install the appropriate version.This approach could be applied to any application that has both 32Bit and 64Bit versions,O&O Defrag Pro is anther example of this. I will post back when I have this working with more specific details for anyone else following this topic. P.S I think this post should have been posted under Application Installs please except my apologies for this oversight.

I am relatively new two these Forums so please forgive me for any errors or admissions.Just recently I have successfully made my first Windows 7 All In One Silent Install the only version not being Installed is Ultimate. I have been following this guide and have made some small modifications to suite my own needs. http://chall32.blogspot.com/2009/11/windows-7-all-in-one-32-and-64-bit-dvd.html The Silent Install starts with a small menu appearing and I select the version of Windows to be Installed being either being 32Bit or 64Bit.After the version has been selected the Installation proceeds as normal and then just before First Log On Setupcomplete.cmd is run to install various Software applications. My problem is there seems to be no way of installing either 32Bit version of a program or its 64Bit counterpart.WinRar is a good example if this it comes in both 32Bit or 64Bit versions.I have Goggled for a solution to this as well as searched these Forums.If anyone has any ideas on how this problem could be overcome I would be most gratefully for any comments or suggestions. Of course I am aware that 32Bit Applications will work under a 64Bit Platform but it would be nice to have a 32Bit App Installed to a 32Bit OS or a 64Bit App installed to a 64Bit OS Here is my

I am relatively new to these Forums an so I do apologize if this question has been asked before. I am using setupcomplete.cmd to install a number of Programs at the end of my Vista Home Basic Silent Install. The Installation proceeds fine and all the Programs install themselves without an issues.Yet inspite of this I cannot get the Computer to reboot after the Programs have been installed. I have been using a small command file to perform the reboot but unfortunately I cannot get it to work.Here is my setupcomplete.cmd file @echo off TITLE Windows Vista Home Basic SP2 32K Edition - RunOnceEx Method of Silent Installation ECHO.
