OK. I followed the instructions.

I used the command prompt and navigated to the proper folder and ran

setup.exe -R

I did not reboot at the end but I cannot find the .iss file. I did a complete search and nothing

i also tried

setup.exe /r

and that did nothing

it never creates a .iss file. can anyone help

Try using setup.exe /r /f1<path/filename.iss>.

This way you can state the location of the script file.

Hi,

While recording an .iss file with setup.exe -r , you can specify where your answer file setup.iss should be placed.

The normal syntax would be like this;

setup.exe -r -f1"c:\setup.iss" -f2"c:\setup.log" or

setup.exe -r -f1%systemdrive% -f2%TEMP%\setup.log

If you only type setup.exe -r the answer file always be created under C:\Windows or C:\WINNT

Installing the software by using setup.iss file

if you only write setup.exe -s , the setup.iss file must be in the same folder as setup.exe

Normal usage;

setup.exe -s -SMS -f1"c:\setup.iss" -f2"c:\setup.log"

Always create a .log file to see if the installation was successfull.
