I was wondering how to silently install AnyDVD and register it? The readme file for the program says the switch is /S so there's no problem there. But how do i register it. I bought it so i have the key.AnyDVD file. What commands or switches do i need to run that file? All you need to do is click it and it registers the program so... please help...

Thanks

have u checked the registry, if its in there than just export the key, otherwise check the folder it is installed to see if there is a regstration file that might have it. good luck...............

Silent Install

/s switch

i.e. = setup.exe /s

Register

Import this into registry

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\SlySoft\AnyDVD\Key]
"Key"=

Kill Process After Install

pskill anydvd.exe

Remove From Windows Startup

Import this into registry

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
"AnyDVD"="-"

Pretty sure someones created an Autoit script for this, you could go further & copy your Anydvd.exe from your currently working program files & Robocopy, xcopy or winrar sfx it in your UA, that should do the trick.

Okay, i'm gonna do the Registry trick, i found the long serial deal for it. But how do i use the pskill thing.. can i see an example of code.. and do i need to download the file for it? Thanks

did u really need to use the pskill switch?, i never had to use it, i will try again to check

u can use the pskill or taskkill, make sure whichever u choose to use is in the system32 folder

anydvd.exe /S

taskkill /IM /F anydvd.exe or pskill -t anydvd.exe

so do i need to put it in the $OEM$\$$\System32 folder or whatever?

Thanks

the taskkill is apart of windows and is already there, u would have to put the pskill in the "$OEM$\$$\System32" if u were to use it........

okay i got this?

REG ADD %KEY%\004 /VE /D "AnyDVD 4.6.1.2" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\004 /V 1 /D "%CDROM%\Install\AnyDVD\setup.exe /S" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\004 /V 2 /D "taskkill /IM /F anydvd.exe" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\004 /V 3 /D "REGEDIT /S %CDROM%\Registry\anydvd.reg" /f

What about the taskkill anydvd.exe?

do i need to change anydvd.exe to setup.exe?

Thanks

Export from registry

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\SlySoft\AnyDVD\Key

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SlySoft\AnyDVD\Settings

leave it as anydvd.exe
