plato2876 Posted September 25, 2004 Share Posted September 25, 2004 Great MSI, very handy. Lavasoft of course came out with a newer version, though, any chance of one for 1.05? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
godan Posted October 1, 2004 Share Posted October 1, 2004 yes a new msi would be great... also i dont know what you are using to make the msi but if you are using InstallShieldX could you plz enlighten me on how you are converting the .exe setup to .msi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jito463 Posted October 2, 2004 Share Posted October 2, 2004 Whatever installer he's using, he's probably just letting it monitor the install and create the MSI automatically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
godan Posted October 2, 2004 Share Posted October 2, 2004 do you know how to do that with InstallShieldX? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCT Posted October 2, 2004 Share Posted October 2, 2004 actually.. adaware is REALLY EASY 2 repack.. since its basically only a .exe & a refrence file..if u copy the lavasoft folder in program files 2 another place.. u can still run adaware successfully.. no need 2 change registry keys or anything (cuz none are added) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jito463 Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 Here's a Rar SFX for Ad-Aware SE 1.05 Personal with the 9/28 defs including shortcuts sent to the All Users Desktop and Start Menu.http://rockent.brinkster.net/Files/aawsefr.exeIt will create one extraneous file in your Ad-Aware directory, this is another SFX for the desktop icons. It won't hurt anything to be there, but you can delete it if you like after installing. The install is 100% silent, so just run it and wait for the icons to appear, then it's done.

jenova314 Posted October 31, 2004 Share Posted October 31, 2004 I finally found a solution to install Adaware SE 1.03 silently.start /wait t:\aawsepersonal.exe /Staskkill /IM Adaware.exe /Ftaskkill /IM hh.exe /Ftaskkill /IM Ad-Aware.exe /Fworks perfectly. ..can i assume i can use this in RunOnceEx.cmd like this?REG ADD %KEY%\085 /VE /D "Lavasoft Ad-Aware" /fREG ADD %KEY%\085 /V 1 /D "%CDROM%\Software\adaware\aaw.exe /s" /fREG ADD %KEY%\050 /V 2 /D "taskkill /IM Adaware.exe" /fREG ADD %KEY%\050 /V 3 /D "taskkill /IM hh.exe" /fREG ADD %KEY%\050 /V 4 /D "taskkill /IM Ad-Aware.exe" /f Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Incroyable HULK Posted October 31, 2004 Share Posted October 31, 2004 Watch out for that:REG ADD %KEY%\085REG ADD %KEY%\050 I'd like to know if it works! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoffeeFiend Posted October 31, 2004 Share Posted October 31, 2004 Sometimes, the installer sucks, and I'm too lazy to repack. Making a SFX would be really easy too, but you can also just copy your Lavasoft directory to $OEM$\$Progs and it'll be installed.2 things left:-the shortcuts (many ways around that...)-the uninstall infos (regedit /s to apply):Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Ad-Aware SE Professional]"DisplayName"="Ad-Aware SE Professional""UninstallString"="C:\\PROGRA~1\\Lavasoft\\AD-AWA~1\\UNWISE.EXE C:\\PROGRA~1\\Lavasoft\\AD-AWA~1\\INSTALL.LOG""HelpLink"="http://www.lavasoft.de""Publisher"="Lavasoft""DisplayIcon"="C:\\PROGRA~1\\Lavasoft\\AD-AWA~1\\Ad-Aware.exe,-0""URLInfoAbout"="http://www.lavasoft.de"Just another method, it's not better than any other, just pick whatever works for you...

GriZly Posted November 20, 2004 Share Posted November 20, 2004 whats the best way for shortcuts and is there a way to put the systemdrive variable in a registry tweak ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
galvanocentric Posted December 4, 2004 Share Posted December 4, 2004 whats the best way for shortcuts and is there a way to put the systemdrive variable in a registry tweak ?You can put environmental variables in your *.reg files but be prepared for the unexpected. You are then leaving variable inperpolation to each program, instead of to Windows.Imagine if Ad-Aware, for example, though it lived in the root of a drive called %ProgramFiles% instead of in C:\Program Files\Ad-Aware, get my drift?If you use the $Docs and $Progs folder structure you should be able to with perfect accuracy throw those shortcuts to the correct location.
