The installer for the products using the Web Install-Engine allows it to proceed an unattended installation for endusers.

Unattended Installation of the Ahead Product without storing the serial number in the registry

setup.exe /silent /sn="XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX"

There are several types of serial numbers. The used type of a serial number defines the structure of the start menu part of the product. This allows it install a product on several systems with one serial number. The customer has then to enter the serial number after the first start of the product (or the customer uses the Demo Mode if the product supports this)

Unattended Installation of the Ahead Product. The serial number will be stored in the registry

setup.exe /silent /sn="XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX" /write_sn

Remark: This method works only for retail and for dummy serial numbers. This does not work for OEM serial numbers!

The next start of the product depends on the serial number used:

If the serial number is a valid retail serial number then the product can be used as normal

If the serial number is only a dummy serial number then this serial number can only be used for the installation. The serial number defines the structure of the start menu part of the product. If this dummy serial number is stored in the registry then the Demo button is not there. The user has to enter a valid serial number before the product can be used.

Unattendend and invisible installation of a Webversion:

if you use the SFX file and the installer shall be started invisible and without any user interaction. Then please use the following parameters:

/silent=1 /silent /no_ui

Additional parameters for the unattended installation:

With the language parameter you are able to install additional languages

/setlang=<language> sets the language to use for the application (since Nero 6.3.0.1)

/no_ui Disables the user interface during a silent installation.

/path="<target path>" defines the target path for the installation (ahead folder)

/silent The installer will be started in silent mode.
