I only have the Diskeeper Professional Edition.msi from my Downloaded installations directory...is it possible to create a silent install with only this file?...And is so, do i use the common switches for msi files?

Hey buddy, if you have the msi already, I think you can just use /qb or /qn to install it silently. But I'm not sure where you got your msi. Is it from your %temp%? Or did you make an admin install?

It came from the Diskeeper Pro 9.exe...it was in my C:\WINDOWS\Downloaded Installations\Diskeeper Professional\{352A9601-E43B-4CFF-BCA4-CF719BBD083D}

The size of the msi from the %temp% directory is about 20mb. And the one from the admin install is about 5mb. If your msi is 20mb, I think you can use /qb or /qn with that. But if your msi is less than that, you can't use it without the other files.

It's 17.9MB...

that isn't right. did u obtain that legally?

It was repackages at my work from the original that was obtainned legally (I work for IT at a Bank)

That file size is fine... its the exact same size as mine... I got my msi at the same place you did. It gets created there and in the temp place that totoymola mentioned.. theyre both the exact same file.

saitoh... goto that link i posted above and just use the cmd I posted... Ive tested it numerous time and its fine.

ok thx

@durex

Do i just need to add this to my runonceex.cmd?

%systemdrive%\install\diskeeper9\admin-point.msi INSTALLDIR="C:\Program Files\Utilities\Diskeeper" /QB

but i replace the admin-point by my msi file and since i want the default location i don't need the INSTALLDIR="C:\Program Files\Utilities\Diskeeper"

Absolutely.
