MCT Posted August 17, 2004 Posted August 17, 2004 hiit depends on the installer of the program, check the installer, then goto its website & check documentation

glent Posted August 17, 2004 Posted August 17, 2004 i soory if i offend but patience would be better all round instead of keep bumping your thread up the top like your prevous two replies
Adiel Posted August 17, 2004 Author Posted August 17, 2004 ok sorry and i'm no offensed its good 2 learn from mistakes
Vann Posted August 17, 2004 Posted August 17, 2004 Unfortunately what flags installers expect are completely nonstandard in Windows and vary drastically from application to application. Moreover, documentation on what these flags are exactly is oftentimes very sparse. My only advice: Google is your friend.
aknott Posted August 17, 2004 Posted August 17, 2004 may a suggest you to do a search inside this forum there are plenty of samples for installation flags for a lot of applications...like here
Adiel Posted August 17, 2004 Author Posted August 17, 2004 @aknott - in this thread there's no switches 4 changing the dir of installation @Vann , in google i need to search like this :installation flags app_name_version? thanks again
Vann Posted August 18, 2004 Posted August 18, 2004 Stop bumping this thread. There's a whole subforum dedicated to application switches, not to mention plenty of documentation on the web.
edbro Posted August 18, 2004 Posted August 18, 2004 ok sorry and i'm no offensed its good 2 learn from mistakes Boy, you forgot that lesson quickly!
