Darude1234 Posted January 29, 2005 Posted January 29, 2005 Hi,When all my application in the batch are installed msn starts and opens the main window. I want that it start without opening the main window. I know that it can be set in the options window, but can it be set in the batch?Greetings,Ruud(from Holland).
SiMoNsAyS Posted January 29, 2005 Posted January 29, 2005 use pskill to kill the process, likepskill.exe msnmsgr.exe
Darude1234 Posted January 30, 2005 Author Posted January 30, 2005 Thanks, it worked!The program gives some text messages from the company, but with these commands they are gone:ECHO.ECHO Installing MSN Messenger 6.2ECHO Please wait...start /wait %systemdrive%\Install\MSN\MSN62WinXP.msi /qbpskill.exe msnmsgr.exeCLSECHO.ECHO Installing Programs. Please Wait...ECHO.ECHO Installing MSN Messenger 6.2ECHO Please wait...ECHO.ECHO Installing MSN Messenger 6.2 Completed!ECHO.
Darude1234 Posted February 1, 2005 Author Posted February 1, 2005 I still have a little problem. MSN Messenger will close when it's installed. But the next time I start Windows, the MSN Messenger Main Window startup again.Is there any registry tweak or something to set options for MSN, because in the options you can set such things on the general tab.

Same as you can set in the option window of MSN on the general tab.There is an option to start messenger at windows startup and there is an option to show the main window when messenger starts and the last one i want to turn off.
SiMoNsAyS Posted February 1, 2005 Posted February 1, 2005 have u checked the optional parameters?[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\MSNMessenger]"AppSettings"=hex:22,00,00,00it is really user dependant and you must record the changes by your own...this will do what you want... [CODE][HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\MSNMessenger]"AppSettings"=hex:02,02,00,00as said next time search and record your options by your own using regshot or regsnap
Darude1234 Posted February 1, 2005 Author Posted February 1, 2005 Sorry, you're totally right.I thought 8 numbers in a reg key couln't be enough for msn to store all information, but it's enough
