totoymola Posted April 15, 2005 Posted April 15, 2005 Dude, it uses InstallShield. [edit1]After checking the installer again, the setup is wrapped with an InstallShield wrapper for the DemoShield menu. But you don't really need it to install it silently. This is what you have to do.1. Using WinRAR, extract the files of the original installer. You will see a folder named "Installs", and the DemoShield files.2. Go the the "Installs" folder and you will see a Wise setup.exe.3. Type %temp% to your "Run" command. If you have a lot of files there, delete them to avoid confusion.4. Run the setup.exe in the "Installs" folder to extract the msi file inside. Wait for the welcome screen of the installaiton of PowerDesk.5. Go back to your %temp% directory and you will see an msi file inside. In my case, it is "c0cd6.msi"6. Copy that file to a different location and exit the setup.7. Install it using the regular msi switches.8. For the registration, use PIDKEY=XXX-XXXXXXX-XXXXExample:PowerDesk6.msi /qb!- PIDKEY=XXX-XXXXXXX-XXXXPlease try it and post back the result.
treblA Posted April 15, 2005 Author Posted April 15, 2005 Thank you so much totoymola.... but still not working for me....i followed ur instructions and copy the 3bf54d.msi and rename it to Pdesk6.msi, i dunno if my switches is correct....prog[pn]=['PowerDEsk 6']uid[pn]=['POWERDESK6']cmd1[pn]=['%systemdrive%\\install\\pdesk6\\Pdesk6.msi /qb!-PIDKEY-XXX-XXXXXXX-XXXX']cat[pn]=['Utilities']pn++when the wpi starts pdesk6 starts to run but it only sez preparing to install and it go to the next software....Dude, it uses InstallShield.

totoymola Posted April 15, 2005 Posted April 15, 2005 That's strange.. Try using a different switch.PowerDesk.msi /qn PIDKEY=XXX-XXXXXXX-XXXX
totoymola Posted April 15, 2005 Posted April 15, 2005 I figured out what the problem is. The installation stops because the serial number is not correct. You have to include the PDP6 part of the serial. This should work.PowerDesk.msi /qb PIDKEY=PDP6-XXX-XXXXXXX-XXXX
treblA Posted April 15, 2005 Author Posted April 15, 2005 totoymola dude samething happens when wpi starts the installation for Powerdesk 6 it closes and goes to the next
totoymola Posted April 15, 2005 Posted April 15, 2005 I tested the code, and it worked 100%.There are two possible reasons.1. Maybe your switches are not correct.2. Or your serial number is not valid.PowerDesk.msi /QB PIDKEY=PDP6-XXX-XXXXXXX-XXXX
1to1 Posted April 15, 2005 Posted April 15, 2005 WellDone totoymolaIt's Working 100% perfacts.thanks again
treblA Posted April 15, 2005 Author Posted April 15, 2005 yey it's working now dude.... thanks so much...galing mo talaga
