Astalavista Posted May 17, 2005 Share Posted May 17, 2005 My Ghost 7zip looks like this Version 9basically i had to hack the msi itself to make it totally silent.This is a quote from MSFN guideMicrosoft Windows InstallerYou can find out if a setup package uses Windows Installer by viewing the extension of the file (*.MSI). These files often use the /QB and /QN switch. The powertoys uses the /s /v/qn switch. You will have to try out each of the two to find out which one works./qb will show a basic progress bar in a window/qn will not show anything and installs in the background.» Preventing Applications from RebootingTo prevent some applications from rebooting automatically (Kerio Personal Firewall 4 is one of them) you need to use REBOOT=Suppress alongside the /qn or /qb switch surrounded in quotation marks. Below is an example:setup.msi "/qn REBOOT=Suppress"Some setup files uses the /s/v/qn switch, so to prevent reboots use:setup.exe /s /v"/qn REBOOT=Suppress" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
