I'd like to have more information how to do that
Tried
REG ADD HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Common\UserInfo /v UserInfo /t REG_BINARY /d %%UserName%%
Says "Too many command-lines in parameters"
Tried with BINARY data such as 00010101 and it works..... so it really needs a BINARY data.... how do I convert STRING TO BINARY?
Thank you!

Anyone knows if there is any log file that setup creates?
I've launched setup file with .ini file with File Monitor, but havent found.
We're using some kind of control on our setups, and .log file is very useful to know if a setup has completed succesfuly.
Thank you!

First of all, this topic should be moved to "Application Installs" subforum
Since it's a Nullsoft Installer the working switches are: (found on their website)
Which command line parameters can be used to configure installers?
/S - Silent installation
/D=C:\Bla - Set output folder
/NCRC - Skip CRC check
Note that command line options can be disabled by the author of an installer.
So maybe, Instant Messenger disabled them......should you send them an email....

Hello all. I've searched a lot on this, tried a lot of time, but haven't found yet. Dealing with file comparison software (Araxis Merge) to get the tweak to get the small icons in the classic start menu of Windows XP.
Anyone achieved this one?
Thank you!

You migh consider adding 2 ligne to your cleanup.cmd so all user can benefit this
REG LOAD "HKLM\User" c:\Doc And Setting\Default User\NTUSER.DAT
REG ADD "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced" /v StartMenuAdminTools /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f
REG ADD "HKLM\User\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced" /v StartMenuAdminTools /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f
REG UNLOAD "HKLM\User"That way, default user will have it, and the current user too

simonsays, totoymola, crahak, and i spent a lot of time
working on our methods. and your going to say
This is much more simple than any other method found in the topic, or using some unofficial build.
Well im not disapproving what u are doing...if you want your Firefox installed with tweaks the way you like it... thats fine...
But in my case, i dont need these...i want something very easy with the default settings... i dont want to specify a lot of setting for my users in my corporate environment....
What i needed was something very easy without any tweaks.
In my case, i guess im lucky... worked with that MSI

Well...just to make sure...i did AGAIN a reinstallation of Firefox
Checked - Not in Add/remove CPL
Checked - Not any shortcut Start Programs, Desktop, QL
Checked - No Mozilla folder in Program Files
And again.....it runs flawless...
So there is something wrong on your side.....

Camtasia from Techsmith
Well i don't care what exactly it does.....
The 2 things i wanted are there
#1) Official from mozilla.org installer
#2) Installe with simple switch /qn or /qb
This is much more simple than any other method found in the topic, or using some unofficial build.

I DO insist on my point....since i dont wanna look like a newbie
IT DOES WORK
Just retried it again on my RIS installation, the MSI i got from here DOES WORK with the traditional /qn switches
Just try it again....
And if you are not conviced about that.... i gonna make a video to prove it
0 -
As I said, I only use the official installer for now. and that one is available here. It's a MSI, so just use /QN or /QB switches as normal.
The rest of what you said, I didn't get. :/
have u tested that /qn /qb
it does not work u did not read my post
/Qn works fine for me.... tried on my RIS unattended setup

I think its possible to change it at will.
You just need to do it through REG.EXE instead of regedit imports.
That way, you can specify the userinfo in your batch-file and it gets imported.
I'm not sure of what u mean by this
What is REG.EXE and how i use it, and when i use it?
Thank you!

You know when you are launching for the first time any Office apps (Word, Excel, etc) from a newly created user profile, the installer start and then ask for a Username and Initials
I found where this information is located....the problem is that the information stored about the user (name and initials) is stored in HEX !!!!!
Key located in:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Common\UserInfo]
I know this could be very easy to just enter anything there and then copy the whole key and load it in the .reg file that loads from the cmdline.txt.
But, in my corporate environment, these key are very used for our template file.
Thank you!

Hello all!
I got a strange behavior related to the Administrative Folder
First of all
1) I DO have enabled the "display Administrative Tools" in the Classic Properties of the Start Menu
2) I want to get this folder into c:\DocAndSetting\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Utils instead of the typical c:\DocAndSetting\All Users\Start Menu\Programs
3) Got a line in my cleanup.cmd file the contain the following code
MOVE %AllUsersProfile%\Start Menu\Programs\Administrative Tools %AllUsersProfile%\Start Menu\Programs\Utils
The problem is:
#1
It keeps, for some reason, a copy of the original folder in the start menu. So i have one directly in Programs folder, and another one in Program/Utils
#2
-The one in the Utils folder contain all the link to the admin tools such as "Service, etc.
-The one in the Program folder is empty. And the administrative tools that is found in the control panel is EMPTY too!!!!
Anyone has a clue on this one
Thank you all!

Ok...after reading 20 pages of this post here... here is what i can see
There is REBUILDED version of Firefox...
There is REBUILDED unatttended version of Firefox...
But havent found yet a way to just command line it like other app.
Is there any FirefoxInstaller.exe /qn
That just plain install it without some tweak that is not much usefull for corporative environment
What kind of installer is the original installer?
What are the switch for?
Thank you!

Tried using ORCA but havent found them
Using Orca,
Go to the Shortcut Table, all 3 are listed there.
Just right click on each one and select Drop Row.
Then resave your msi.
Yup i tried with ORCA to get the property name, and got them....
But i don't want to modify my MSI

Get all driver version installed
in Device Drivers
Posted
Hello all!
I was wondering if any of you did thid before.
I'm trying to get the driver version installed on fresh installed machine.
I know about some utilities like devcon, driverquery and filever, but they are very hard to work with and i get too much stuff generated by these utils.
Is there an autamated way to get what's inside the device manager for specific device such as NIC and Video and the driver version installed....
Thank you all!
