Installing with AutoIt Macros

[Pete_]

Hi!

I run my setup with autoit macros, and it made the au3-file, how do i run now my setup from .cmd with au3?

Do I have to use some syntax?

Thanks!

To execute an Au3 file when AutoIt3.exe is in the current path or the systems path use:

AutoIt3.exe "path/to/script.au3"

If not seen in the path, then you may need to also specify the "path\to\AutoIt3.exe".

If the Au3 file is compiled into an executable, then use same syntax as running any other executable.

"path\to\script.exe"

Switches used on the installer being automated, deleting shortcuts etc would be expected to be contained within the script itself.

AutoIt3 is here if needed.

Scite4AutoIt3 editor is here also if needed.

Hi!

I have now compiled the script to exe, but it seems that i have to run the script exe and the original exe, so the original exe is being run my script.exe. How can i run the both from my cmd-line?

You run script.exe and then script.exe will run the installer.exe.

Your Au3 script may have for example

Run(@ScriptDir & '\installer.exe')

So the script.exe will run installer.exe within the same directory. Only need to run script.exe from your cmd file.
