More silent install updates!

[songokussm]

This is my list of apps that can be silently isntalled, but the information located in the forums is out dated.

Acrobat 3D-

http://www.adobe.com/support/techdocs/330817.html ----tells you how

http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=2709 --some software you need

Photoshop CS2-

http://www.adobe.com/support/techdocs/331261.html -works with out cracking your msi files

Please note for Photoshop CS2 you need to import some registry keys. I figured it out once, but forgot how. In other words it worked, but i cant find the guide on how to import registry entries. SO if you find that out it will work fine. Good luck!

EDIT:

After a few hours of trying to used reg add i had no luck. can someone please point me in the right direction?

here's the reg info i want to import during the windows install, preferably before it stats installing the app that needs it.

---------------

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{236BB7C4-4419-42FD-0409-1E257A25E34D}]

"EPIC_REGS_TYPE"=dword:00000004

"EPIC_REGS_STATE"=dword:00000002

"EPIC_REGS_LANG"=dword:00000000

"EPIC_REGS_COUNT"=dword:00000000

-------------------------

Its the same reg info needed to suppress the activation for Photoshop.

Azureus 2.5.0.0
