delete shortcuts without success

[Major]

Hi Men, I try to install unattended applications. all seem to be good except it doesnt detele the shortcuts i have specified, my runonceex.cmd:

REG ADD %KEY%\002 /VE /D "WinZip 9.0" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\002 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\install\winzip.exe /S" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\002 /V 2 /D "REGEDIT /S %systemdrive%\install\winzip.reg" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\002 /V 3 /D "\"%PROGRAMFILES%\WinZip\winzip32.exe\" /noqp /notip /autoinstall" /f

DEL /f /q "%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Menu inicio\WinZip.lnk"

REG ADD %KEY%\005 /VE /D "Nero Burning Rom 6.6.0.5" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\005 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\install\Nero6605.exe /silent /noreboot /SN=xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx /Write_SN" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\005 /V 3 /D "%systemdrive%\install\Nero6605ESP.exe /silent /noreboot" /f

DEL /f /q "%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Escritorio\Nero StartSmart.lnk"

DEL /f /q "%APPDATA%\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\Nero StartSmart.lnk"

Any suggestions, Thanks.

to be honest, i'm not sure runonce can do that, though I'm sure I'll be corrected if that's not the case...

I personally would put all those DEL commands into a seperate command file (such as cleanup.cmd) and make another runonce entry to run that command file. Much easier IMHO

rendrag is in the right, but if you insist on runonceex.cmd it should by as:

REG ADD %KEY%\002 /VE /D "WinZip 9.0" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\002 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\install\winzip.exe /S" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\002 /V 2 /D "REGEDIT /S %systemdrive%\install\winzip.reg" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\002 /V 3 /D "\"%PROGRAMFILES%\WinZip\winzip32.exe\" /noqp /notip /autoinstall" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\002 /V 4 /D "cmd.exe /c del /Q /F ""%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Menu inicio\WinZip.lnk"""

REG ADD %KEY%\005 /VE /D "Nero Burning Rom 6.6.0.5" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\005 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\install\Nero6605.exe /silent /noreboot /SN=xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx /Write_SN" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\005 /V 3 /D "%systemdrive%\install\Nero6605ESP.exe /silent /noreboot" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\005 /V 4 /D "cmd.exe /c del /Q /F ""%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Escritorio\Nero StartSmart.lnk"""

REG ADD %KEY%\005 /V 5 /D "cmd.exe /c del /Q /F ""%APPDATA%\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\Nero StartSmart.lnk"""

Hello and thans men, I have followed your advice and I have created file aside with the name: cleanup.cmd

my runonce.cmd:

cmdow @ /HID

@echo off

SET KEY=HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnceEx

REG ADD %KEY% /V TITLE /D "Installing application" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\005 /VE /D "Nero Burning Rom 6.6.0.5" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\005 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\install\Nero6605.exe /silent /noreboot /SN=xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx /Write_SN" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\005 /V 2 /D "%systemdrive%\install\NBR6605ESP.exe /silent /noreboot" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\005 /V 3 /D "%systemdrive%\install\Cleanup.cmd" /f

and my cleanup.cmd:

cmdow @ /HID

@echo off

DEL /f /q "%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Escritorio\Nero StartSmart.lnk"

DEL /f /q "%APPDATA%\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\Nero StartSmart.lnk"

exit

Thanks again men and it works perfectly

REG ADD %KEY%\002 /V 4 /D "cmd.exe /c del /Q /F ""%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Menu inicio\WinZip.lnk"""

It should be pointed out that you would likely, in the event of using this in RunOnceEx, need to add in those extra backslashes as mentioned in the unattended guide.
