WinZip 8.1

[hossm]

I've searched here and found a few hits on how to do the unattended install for WinZip (I have version 8.1) and it seems pretty straight forward. But when it tries to run the script, I get an "Invalid Switch" error message. I've tried the switches in different order, same result.

Here is what I'm using:

ECHO Installing WinZip
ECHO Please Wait...
MOVE "%systemdrive%\install\Apps\Winzip" "%ProgramFiles%"
start /wait "%ProgramFiles%\Winzip\winzip32.exe" /autoinstall /noqp /notip

Am I missing something?

The Move command is really flakey. It take a lot of experimentation to get it right. You'll probably be better off just copying it over and deleting the install directory later.

It does move the directory over successfully and finds the executable. When I login I can see the WinZip folder in Program Files. So it gets to the exe file, but it says invalid switch.

But I'll give XCOPY a try too.

The switch order seem to be important...

winzip32.exe /noqp /notip /autoinstall
