prathapml Posted October 12, 2004 Share Posted October 12, 2004 Either that, or do the below to get an administrative install point of the dk9:Open a CMD window, go to the directory where the main setup file is.Then run it with the "/A" switch - it will ask you where to save it. Just specify a folder of your choice, and then you can copy that folder for your unattended purposes - the MSI in that folder should be run with "/QB" switch for unattended setup of dk9 pro.

skybl4ck Posted October 12, 2004 Share Posted October 12, 2004 thank you btw.. the folder does it contain a .msi file because i have a setup.exe file instead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prathapml Posted October 13, 2004 Share Posted October 13, 2004 No, if you have the single-file setup.exe, you don't have the .MSI.You need to do what is in my previous post above, to get the .MSI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skybl4ck Posted October 13, 2004 Share Posted October 13, 2004 whoops.. used the wrong setup.exe thanks for all the help, people here are really supportive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sanjay Posted October 14, 2004 Share Posted October 14, 2004 execute the main setup program ... when the first window pops up asking you to press NEXT to proceed , click cancel...then go to %systemroot%\Downloaded Installations\Diskeeper Professional to get the msi file,use the msi file to install your DK insteadThere is no such folder created.But what you can do is:1. Go to your temp folder "C:\Documents and Settings\YourUserName\Local Settings\Temp" and delete all files from there to avoid confusion with any existing files.2. Run the main Diskeeper 9.0 'setup.exe' file, when the first window pops up asking you to press NEXT to proceed, Important: DO NOT cancel.3. Go to the temp folder "C:\Documents and Settings\YourUserName\Local Settings\Temp", copy the .msi file there (size 17.9 MB [18,787,328 bytes]) and save it to another place.4. Rename the .msi file to Diskeeper.msi5. Use 'Diskeeper.msi' for the unattended install with the /qn switch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luvidoc Posted October 22, 2004 Share Posted October 22, 2004 the silent switch is : decompress with winrar the setup and execut with:Setup.exe /s /v"/qn SMART=\"YES\" CREATEDESKTOPSHORTCUT=1 "SMART="YES"This argument causes Diskeeper Smart Scheduling to be set up for every disk volume on the target computer.CREATEDESKTOPSHORTCUT=1This argument causes a desktop shortcut for running Diskeeper to be created on the target computer.

Theimon Posted October 22, 2004 Share Posted October 22, 2004 I followed the instructions mentioned above, but I stumble upon the following problem.From my RunonceexREG ADD %KEY%\020 /VE /D "Diskeeper Professional 9" /fREG ADD %KEY%\020 /V 1 /D %CDROM%\Extra\Diskeeper\Diskeeper.msi /QB" /fThis doesn't seem to work when you install your apps from cd Cuz when my unattended install finishes and I go round checking in VMware what did pull off and what not, Diskeeper isn't installed at all. Is this a known issue? Is installation only possible after you first copy the msi and then install from your HDD? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
