DJB Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 (edited) Download: MEGAUPLOAD MirrorI was wondering how to silently install Sound Forge a while ago, but today I ended up taking a closer look at it, and I successfully got it to do it !! It's pretty simple, here are the steps:* Double-Click the soundforge90a_enu.exe file and select a place for the file to extract the setup. The default location is C:\Program Files\Sony Setup\Sound Forge 9.0* To install Sound Forge, your PC requires the Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable (vcredist_x86.exe) to be installed. This has been included in the setup files for Sound Forge. You can either install it from there (using the /Q switch to make it silent), or have it installed before this. * Now, I had a close look at the Sound Forge install .exe and realised that even in silent mode, it will still install the Noise Reduction plug-in normally (not silent). So, the trick to keep this all silent is to install the Noise Reduction plug-in FIRST. Go to the nrpack folder and run the nrpack_enu.msi file with using the /qb switch to make it silent.* After this, you can now install Sound Forge, the silent switch for the setup.exe is /QI ended up making a 7-zip switchless installer of this and I can confirm this does work perfectly!! What I ended up doing was just writing a small DOS script, throwing it in the C:\Program Files\Sony Setup\Sound Forge 9.0 folder and just 7-zipping that whole folder. If anyone is interested, here is the DOS script I wrote:@echo offmode con cols=70 lines=2title Sound Forge 9.0acls@echo Please wait while Sound Forge 9.0a is installingvcredist_x86.exe /Qcd nrpacknrpack_enu.msi /qbcd..setup.exe /QI hope this helps out a lot of people as it helped me out heaps Enjoy...

phaolo Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 (edited) But how do I insert the serial silently?Is there a way or can I only manually enable-register the program each time? When all the commercial programs will decide to add good silent switches.. (w Inno Setup for freewares) Edited July 29, 2008 by phaolo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
