Hello

I can't have a silent install for kaspersky

I have apply all the things you said in this theards

I put a /S ==> Nothing

I put a /s ==> Nothing

I tried a /? in order to have some explications ==> Nothing

Kasparsky won't install in silent.

Maybe they are some change between the version !

Mine is 5.0.121 french version.

i use in RunOnceEx :

REG ADD %KEY%\090 /VE /D "Kaspersky Personnal Anti-Virus 5.0.149" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\090 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\Softwares\Kaspersky\kav5.0.149.exe /S" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\090 /V 2 /D "REGEDIT /S %systemdrive%\Softwares\Kaspersky\kav5.0.149.reg" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\090 /V 3 /D "%systemdrive%\Softwares\Kaspersky\update.exe" /f

Kav 5.0.149, French version too.

no problem

you even don't need to apply the.reg, just put your key in the same dir as your

kav5.153.exe and it will take it into account during the installation ....

Thanks for your answer

but with my version i still have the problem !!!

So i download the kav 5.0.142 and it's work fine ... i don't understand

Bye

@webservices :

i didn't know that.

i'll try it for my next reinstall/test

@cestpaspossible :

the version is not the problem. with /S it must work.

give us your complete/exact code, it can be the cause of the malfunction.

I just downloaded the 5.0.149.4 and it's works fine.

I try agan with the 5.0.121 .... nothing (i just change the name of the exe, nothing else). Maybe this version was corrupt ? I don't know.

@r0sWell : I notice this line :

REG ADD %KEY%\090 /V 3 /D "%systemdrive%\Softwares\Kaspersky\update.exe" /f

I suppose is for the last cumulative update, but on the kaspersky site i only find the zip file : avp0409.zip.

I can made a SFX of this archive but what path should i put in the default dir ?

Before in the 4.xx version, there was a base dir ... i don't him at this time !

Thk a lot

@cestpaspossible :

in fact, update.exe is a RAR SFX i created, with the last Kaspersky update.

the kav5.0 update folder is loacated in C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Kaspersky Anti-Virus Personal\5.0.

so you just need to update Kaspersky AV, and after that, go to this folder and build a SFX which will extract itself when run from RunOnceEx.cmd (or Batch file if you don't use RunOnceEx).

auto import key file works after v5.0.132, and you can change update folder outside system drive with regTweak, after reinstall xp the updated database remains and you got the latest database before reinstall.

YES FANTASTIC

Thank a lot for all your answer

It seems Kaspersky Personal Pro is only at v5.0.12 and apparantely the /S nor /s switch work for this, atleast it does nto work for me. How come the Personal Pro version is behind in version numbers and also how come the silent install switch does nto work with it? What am I to do?
