Guest tranceaddict_no1 Posted May 8, 2005 Share Posted May 8, 2005 It's indeed a nice piece of software. You can browse through your pics very easilyI have 2 mention though that the switch /S performed on the installation copied from the programs dir worked for me. Just don't forget it's case sensitive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
totoymola Posted May 11, 2005 Share Posted May 11, 2005 Yes it can be installed with the /S switch. But the problem is it starts the program after installation. That's why some people are having problem. I didn't try to install it using that switch though. That's why I decided to create the msi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tranceaddict_no1 Posted May 11, 2005 Share Posted May 11, 2005 Well ok.. I haven't tried it in my unattended install yet. I will first try that & if it causes problems for me 2 well then i'll have 2 download your msi installer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

totoymola Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 UmmmmmmmmmmmI think I'll soon dump the crappy ACDsee 7.0! :)Hehehe.. That's what I did several months ago. Although I must admit that ACDSee has more features than this.. But I don't use all of them, thats why Picasa is good enough for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
codeblue Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 @totoymolaThanks for the work on the .msi, any chance of an updated version for Picasa 2.1.0.27.60 ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
totoymola Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 You're welcome buddy. I will probably make an updated version next week, after my test on monday. When did they release the updated version anyway? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rikgale Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 @totoymolaI've had a few problems with using your .msi. The main/only problem being that after installing uAXP and them calling your msi from RunOnceEx, it all installs fine. However after the first reboot my CD drive dissapered from My Computer and could not be accessed anyother way. This occured on both a VM machine and a real computer.I've gone back to using the /S switch andcmdow @ /HID@echo offTASKKILL.EXE /F /IM Picasa2.exeTASKKILL.EXE /F /IM PicasaMediaDetector.exedel %0to kill of Picasa when it tries to start itself after installing, also stopped it from opening IE, by not having IE and having no defualt browser setup during the install so it can't open the picasa webpage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
totoymola Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 Sheesh.. I'm so sorry about that.. Odd because that never happened to me. Thanks for letting me know.By the way, I'm just curious. Are you sure it is really caused by the Picasa msi? Because I do not remember using a registry entry to alter the HD/CD drives.About your method of silent installation, yes that works fine. That was our very first solution of installing it.You can also try another approach here.http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=22697&st=0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rikgale Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 Yep I'm 99.9% sure, as it stopped once I stopped using the .MSI, it was the last thing I suspected. I even rebuilt my uACD from sctrach to see if that made a difference. Soon as I stopped using the MSI the problem went away. Maybe it was conflicting with something else that I installed, maybe not. Thanx for your effort, but I'll stick with the old way for now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
