Newtoscripts Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 I am trying to do a silent install of Adobe Flash. I have created a simple batch file to go to a particular server and share to runn the install for example "\\servername\flash\install_flash_player_11_active_x_32bit.exe" I cannot get it to run silently I have tried the /s switch, -install Any ideas would help. The batch files does run pauses at the license agreement.Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 Try "-install -force". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

myselfidem Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 Maybe you can try to use the exe file and rename with "short name": Choose the 32 bit to suit your needs:http://www.adobe.com/special/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.htmlWorks fine for me, like this:FlashPlayer32bit.exe -installI hope that can help you.

Newtoscripts Posted November 23, 2011 Author Share Posted November 23, 2011 (edited) 5eraph I just tried your suggestion again. I placed the "-install" in separate quotes. Worked like a charm. Edited November 23, 2011 by Newtoscripts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Octopuss Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 I have a link saved for quite some time. I believe it's almost impossible to click through to that page normally.http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.htmlI really despise web installers that are forced on you without the option to download full package. I suggest the msi version and just going msiexec /quiet /i install_flash_player_11_active_x.msi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phoenix-IT Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Every option you could want is covered in their Administration Guide:http://forums.adobe.com/servlet/JiveServlet/downloadBody/3063-102-1-3598/flash_player_11_6_admin_guide.pdfSearch for "Adobe Flash Extract" to learn how to pull out the MSI packages, etc. from their Administrator's download. Sign up and they'll usually give you a site license to use it in about 5 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
