why? autoit does a perfect job on this one.

it's not a silent install. also autoit scripts are too easy to interfere with. I've made a 7zip installer that uses an autoit script to move the files and shortcuts around aswell as adding registry entries.

I've got it working perfectly with the obvious exception of it needing a first run to make the virtual cd drives and all the settings are in with the obvious exception of virtual drive details which are kept in "HKEY-USERS"

So this brings me to my next step. how to edit "HKEY-USERS"

You cant

there has to be a way. surely is alcohol can acheive it then we should be able too aswell :/

Yep , its called AUTOIT

it's not a silent install. also autoit scripts are too easy to interfere with.

AutoIt scripts, if using WinWait() and Control*() functions, are almost impossible to interrupt. You have a good chance of hiding the install when using Control*() functions by WinMove()-ing the installer window off screen.

The option window using html can be handled with the Com capabilities of the newly released AutoIt3 v3.2.0.1.

So it comes down to knowledge of using AutoIt and not whether AutoIt can do it good enough.

And so what if i see the window?

Mine installs fine
