7Zip unattended

[purg99]

Oddly I cant install 7zip unattended. It always asks for its install directory.

This is whats already in my RunOnceEx

REG ADD %KEY%\029 /V 4 /D "%XPCD%\install\7Zip.exe -y /q /r:n" /f

I would like to keep away from autoit or other external methods and stick with the runonceex & $oem$ structure.

%CDROM%\\GROM\\7Zip\\7zip.exe /S

thanks Yurek3, must have been typing when you replied

I did only correct.

That is odd, as this:

REG ADD %KEY%\045 /VE /D "7zip v3.13" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\045 /V 1 /D "%DVD%\MyStuff\Applications\7z313.exe -y /q /r:n" /f

...Works for me...

Trying to use the /S prompt asks if i want to install.

That's kinda weird, eh?

this I found at 7zip website FAQ

How to install 7-Zip in silent mode?

/S for silent installation and /D=dir to specify the "output directory". These options are case-sensitive. 7-Zip uses NSIS installer.

works fine for me also

OK, you know what...I'm a goofball.

The reason that works for me (e.g. the -y and all) is because I repackaged 7zip myself last year as a 7zip sfx..and...just...forgot! Doh!

Sorry for the confusion.....
