Microsoft Plus! for Windows XP

[argon007]

Echo Installing Microsoft Plus! for Windows XP
Start /wait Plus!\Microsoft Plus! for Windows XP.msi /qb

The problem is that:

1. The space can not be recognized in Command Prompt.

2. If I rename it to remove the space, there will be an error.

so, how to install it sliently?

Thanks.

Solution=Rename the file the same then.

You can RIGHT click on the installer and rename it MSPlus.msi (or absolutely anything - you can name it mickeymouse.msi if you want).

Then just make sure your command syntax uses the same name.

Echo Installing Microsoft Plus! for Windows XP
Start /wait Plus!\MSPlus.msi /qb

You can rename any installer either .exe (or .msi) to anything you want as long as your syntax MATCHES the re-named file OR you must surround it in quotation marks

""

if you want to leave gaps. (The previous poster wrongly called them commas).

Post above now edited to make it clear. Just rename the first part NOT the file extension. That remains the same - either .exe. or .msi

I'm also having trouble installing Plus! for XP. I did it using RunOnce.cmd, but when it does install, it doesn't work right. None of the themes work, and when I open up the Plus! for CP program in the start menu, it's just a plain white window. I renames the .msi and everything, I just can't get it to work right somehow.
