CD Keys & silent installs?

[coopz81]

Hi, im new to this wpi stuff and ive had a quick play with it and have a few questions I need answering.

How can you integrate cd keys into programs that need them entering during setup ? Is this done by adding the reg file after the install ? If so how can you tell which one needs exporting from the registry in my current setup so it will work with the new install ?

Also

Ive tried adding /s in the commands but when testing it doesnt install the software in silent mode? and when ive tried clicking on the ussf button some of my .exe files it says theres a problem with the exe file - so how can I make silent installs ?

Thanks for your time

Well this should be moved to Application Installs. And you can use CMenu to find most of thoes program switches.

Post back on which CMenu cant find.

Office 2007

#1 Make sure you have 07 enterprise office!
#2 Run it with the following switch = setup.exe /admin
#3 Follow all of the instructions paying alot of attention to the "Licensing and User interface" section enter the serial and select Display level = none
#4 save the resulting file as "Your-Name-here.msp" and add that file to the office 07 folder. Don't use spaces in the file name! 
#5 Then add this line to the cammandline1 in WPI "%wpipath%\Office07\setup.exe" /adminfile Your-Name-here.msp

Thats all there is 5 easy steps!!!!

Adding the hotfixes and updates:

#1 Download them all (Der)
#2 Goto Start --> Run and enter "temp"
#3 Leaving your temp folder open run each fix\update one at a time and COPY the .msp file(s) that appear in your temp folder to the "Updates" folder in your Office07 dir

That will autorun the updates during installation!

POWER ISO

Power ISO.exe /S

You are going to need a reg key if you are going to silently register it.

Go to the start menu, to to RUN, type in regedit
Go to:
HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-1491950412-2009852829-4049741679-1000\Software
and extract "Power ISO"

Go to:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software
and extract "Power ISO"

Ether join the two REG files or use both seperatly.
P.S. The only thing you need in both files is the USER lines.

WINAMP

Winamp.exe /S /install=SFDR

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Nullsoft\Winamp]
"regname"="Shadow"
"regkey"="xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx"

FLASH PLAYER

Flash.exe /S

GOOGLE EARTH

GoogleEarth.exe /a /r /f1GoogleEarth.iss

Save the text below as GoogleEarth.iss and put it in the same directory as the installer.
