... Warrior,  can you tell me how you made an exe of your qt file using winrar? ( I want to try that method to install Winrar "Gui")

Create a SFX archive with the following comment;

Path=%systemdrive%\Documents And Settings\All Users\Application Data\QuickTime
SavePath
Silent=1
Overwrite=1

I run the SFX first, so creating the prefs file first, then the install will use the registration and prefs. from this file. :hello:

I'm confused. Which version of QuickTime are we talking about? The pro version? Or the free iTunes version? Because their installers are very different.

QuickTime Pro ----> Vise installer

iTunes -------------> InstallShied InstallScript MSI wrapped into an EXE.

For the iTunes we have two options.

a. Install from the AIP. To get the AIP, run iTunesSetup.exe /a

b. Install from the original setup file. Run iTunesSetup.exe /s/v/q

Vise installers don't support the /a switch.

ARGH! I've read these posts about the Quicktime 6.5.X silent installs with the .ini file about a million and one times but for the life of me can't get mine to work. I'm trying to install the free quicktime player through the RunOnceEx.cmd method. I downloaded the full installer from Apple's website.

Here's the line(s) from my RunOnceEx.cmd file:

REG ADD %KEY%\015 /VE /D "QuickTime 6" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\015 /v 1 /D "%systemdrive%\installs\Quicktime\QuickTimeFullInstaller.exe" /f

and here's my QuickTimeFullInstaller.ini file contents

[QTPrefs]
ConnectionSpeed=2147483647
CSMultipleStreams=1

[QTSETUP]
license_option=0
no_dialogs=1
registration_dialog=0
supress_speed_dialog=1
install_qtjava=1
install_qd3d=1
install_quicklaunch_icons=0
install_desktop_icons=0
show_sample=0
show_readme=0
show_programfolder=0
install_qtinfo=0

Could someone please tell what I'm doing wrong?!? My QuickTimeFullInstaller.exe and the QuickTimeFullInstaller.ini files are in the same directory. The RunOnce calls the installer ok, i just can't get it to read the .ini file. I'd prefer not to use the Quicktime Alternative or install Quicktime via itunes. thanks

use this

REG ADD %KEY%\020 /VE /D "Quicktime Player 6.5.2" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\020 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\install\Quicktime\QuickTime652.exe" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\020 /V 2 /D "rundll32 setupapi,InstallHinfSection DefaultInstall 128 %systemdrive%\install\quicktime\QuickTimeSettings.inf" /f

use this and install the .ini and the inf in your quicktime directory

good luck

I have been looking at doing this for a while and managed to resolve issue with help from you guys and from mindvision.com site.

I used this command line;

<pathname>\QuickTimeFullInstaller.exe -s

and the .ini file is called;

quicktimeinstaller.ini

as anything else fails all the time

quicktimeinstaller.ini file looks like this;

;QuicktimeInstaller.ini
[QTSETUP]
license_option=0
no_dialogs=true
registration_dialog=false
supress_speed_dialog=true
install_qtjava=false
install_qd3d=true
install_quicklaunch_icons=false
install_desktop_icons=false
show_sample=false
show_readme=false
show_programfolder=false
install_qtinfo=false

[QTPREFS]
show_hotpicks=false
ConnectionSpeed="1.5 Mbps T1/Intranet/Lan"
CSMultipleStreams=0

You need both files in same folder.

It does show you what is happening, but does it all with no user interaction.

I have NOT tried via runonceex.cmd or wpi, but will do later on and update.

Edit:This is all based on QuickTimeFullInstaller v6.5.2

But install_desktop_icons=false - not working

and QT logo in tray (near clock) is still there.

Anybody knows how to fix it?

Are you refering to ver 7 beta or 6.5.2?

If the latter, my ver doesn't put it in the system tray but does create desktop icon.

Visit my site if u want it ready-made... if not, here's my .ini:

[QTSETUP] 
license_option=0
no_dialogs=true
registration_dialog=false
supress_speed_dialog=true
install_qttask=false
install_qtjava=false
install_qd3d=false
show_sample=false
show_readme=false
show_programfolder=false
install_qtinfo=true

[QTPrefs]
ConnectionSpeed=modem
CSMultipleStreams=0

Enjoy,

N.

as stated, my posted ini is for 6.5.2 but it *may* work for version 7 beta...

Would be useful to know but this is offtopic so maybe create a new topic for this - if one does not exist.

Regards

N.
