Recommended Posts

hi

i can do a silent install of this Limewire Pro 4.9.3 using the /S switch. But the app launches after the setup is finished. any body any ideas on how to stop this happening?

cheers

P.S.

i am using the Start.cmd batch file for all my installs.

Hellow, I made an exe that closes the window.

Just with the app autoit. I dunno if it will work, still have to test it now.

So I download autoit. just google for it. Then they have a command

WinClose, <Window Title> [,<Window Text>]

In my case this is: (yup am Dutch speaking)

WinClose, LimeWire: maakt open informatie delen mogelijk!

how did i found the window title. Wel start up limewire and you will see it. Or use the revealer from autoit.

Then I have put the command in a txt and saved it as *.aut file. Then I converted the aut file to an exe. (look in the autoit menu in the start pannel) now I will try to start the exe in a *cmd file.

:whistle: Greetz

Boom!

How many times do I have to hear about Limeware.I am sick of all the posts about the subject.

Let me give you a clue and best solution:

Fisrt install the program manually...right?

Then locate the program file: the source

Then make a self-installer using WinRar

The program will then run excellently and no need to install it after that

Just make a shortcut after installing

I will try it. But first, you will hear it until you can write it. limewIre. :P

Am just jokin, so don't be mad.

Ok my previous method didn't work that good. I would say "it's a stupid method', it it is stupid to use autoit.

EDIT: It worked! Perfect. Thanks arabianhorse! B)

its said!. thanks arabianhorse.

confirmed now...

its working with latest version of limewire pro (4.10.5).

install it normally, configure everything you want (includde downloads folder) and then just make a SFX archive with all the contents of "Program Files\LimeWire Path".

to be sure enough i also made an SFX archive out of %UserProfile$\Application Data\LimeWire".

worked like a charm. thanks to arabianhorse for pointing this out.

Hate to bring this topic up again, but I took your idea a step further and just had to share my work.

I've been playing with Inno Setup and decided to make a Limewire installer that would install silently without starting up the application, has all my settings built in, and uninstalls cleanly.

The uninstall even removes the Limewire registry entries in the Windows Firewall.

This installer won't overwrite personal settings if they already exist but it doesn't check to see if you have SUN Java installed so make sure you install that first.

1. Install Limewire PRO 4.12.4 and run it to configure all your settings.

2. Download the file install_script.iss attached to this post and put it in a new folder on your PC.

3. Copy the program files from %ProgramFiles%\LimeWire\ to a new folder called {app}

The following files are not needed so you can delete them from the {app} folder:

- install.log

- uninstall.exe

I also modified the shortcut file "LimeWire On Startup" so that it was not specific to drive C: by right click on it to show "Properties" and modified:

Target: %ProgramFiles%\LimeWire\LimeWire.exe -startup

Start in: %ProgramFiles%\LimeWire

4. Copy some personal settings files from %UserProfile%\LimeWire\ to a new folder called {userappdata}

Assemble everything to the following folder structure:

NewFolder
|
|- install_script.iss
|
|- {app}
| |
| |- (files from %ProgramFiles%\LimeWire\)
|
|-{userappdata}
|- installation.props
|- library.dat
|- limewire.props
|- questions.props
|- spam.dat
|- tables.props

5. Install the Inno Setup QuickStart Pack (ispack-5.1.6.exe) from jrsoftware.org and compile the install_script.iss file.

6. After compile is done you'll have a new folder called Output which contains a new Limewire installer.

Use /SILENT or /VERYSILENT switch for silent installation of Inno Setup installers.

I found Regshot to be a very handy tool during all this.

Enjoy.

install_script.iss

Download the version you want from limewire and the .exe file ( LimeWireWin.exe)

then use the following autoit script:

Opt("WinWaitDelay",100)
Opt("WinTitleMatchMode",4)
Opt("WinDetectHiddenText",1)
Opt("MouseCoordMode",0)
Run('LimeWireWin.exe')
WinWait("Installer Language","Please select a lang")
If Not WinActive("Installer Language","Please select a lang") Then WinActivate("Installer Language","Please select a lang")
WinWaitActive("Installer Language","Please select a lang")
Send("{ENTER}")
WinWait("LimeWire PRO 4.12.3 Setup","Welcome to LimeWire ")
If Not WinActive("LimeWire PRO 4.12.3 Setup","Welcome to LimeWire ") Then WinActivate("LimeWire PRO 4.12.3 Setup","Welcome to LimeWire ")
WinWaitActive("LimeWire PRO 4.12.3 Setup","Welcome to LimeWire ")
Send("{ENTER}")
WinWait("LimeWire PRO 4.12.3 Setup ","Nullsoft Install Sys")
If Not WinActive("LimeWire PRO 4.12.3 Setup ","Nullsoft Install Sys") Then WinActivate("LimeWire PRO 4.12.3 Setup ","Nullsoft Install Sys")
WinWaitActive("LimeWire PRO 4.12.3 Setup ","Nullsoft Install Sys")
Send("{TAB}{TAB}{TAB}{ENTER}")
WinWait("LimeWire PRO 4.12.3 Setup ","LimeWire PRO Install")
If Not WinActive("LimeWire PRO 4.12.3 Setup ","LimeWire PRO Install") Then WinActivate("LimeWire PRO 4.12.3 Setup ","LimeWire PRO Install")
WinWaitActive("LimeWire PRO 4.12.3 Setup ","LimeWire PRO Install")
Send("{SPACE}{TAB}{TAB}{ENTER}")

That is all

WinWaitActive("LimeWire PRO 4.12.3 Setup ","LimeWire PRO Install")
Send("{SPACE}{TAB}{TAB}{ENTER}")
