Acronis True Image 9 silent switch?

[Triel]

Does anyone know a method for installing Acronis True Image 9, with in WPI, that will install it silently?

I have tried using WinInstall LE and it fails to install or corrupts certain parts and then the program corrupts that image it makes.

extract the MSI first, then using switchs

PIDKEY=*****-*****-*****-*****-***** /qn /norestart

replace *****-*****-*****-*****-***** with your serial number.

xian7479 Thank you!

I kind of figured I needed to extract it but I never new what to do after that. I will try that later and let you know if it worked correctly.

Justr to let anyone else know how to extract from Acronis True Image.

Double-Click the exe file (like trueimage9.0_s_en.exe) and the right click where it states "Install True Image". Just select extract and path for extraction.

Then use information xian7479 posted and you are set.

extract the MSI first

How to extract the .MSI?

Btw why the .MSI is smaller than the 'archived' version?

Edit: I guess Disk Director 10 will install silently with the same switches?

Yes Disk Director 10 uses the same switches

If you double click on the installers i,e, trueimage9.0.3677_s_en.exe but dont install goto the Help on top right corner it will tell you all switches needed for silent install Disk Director doesn't show the switches in the help file but same switches work
