Simple question, Removing window "Installing Programs"

[Draconian]

I know all about runonceex.cmd etc, but what I been wondering is, how do you make a screen such as this go away,

I really don't want it popping up because I already know what programs I am installing and on a long list of programs, that window can quite clog up your screen, especially when using a startup resolution of 1024x768.

So any remedies?

I can't answer your question, but how did you make windows install things in that way?

I didn't realise you could do things like that.

Simple answer: just omit the entries for the titles.

Hello Takeshi,

thnx for your answer but it doesn't seem to be working for me, could you show me what you mean for below example,

cmdow @ /HID

@Echo Off

FOR %%i IN (D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z) DO IF EXIST %%i:\CD.txt SET CDROM=%%i:

SET PP=%cdrom%\Software\

SET KEY=HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnceEx

REG ADD %KEY% /V TITLE /D "Installing Programs" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\000 /VE /D "Autoit v3" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\000 /V 1 /D "%PP%Autoit\auto3.exe" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\001 /VE /D ".Net FrameWork 2.0" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\002 /V 1 /D "%PP%NetFrameWork\dotfix.exe" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\003 /VE /D "Monitor Drivers" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\003 /V 1 /D "%PP%Monitor\Monitor.exe" /f

[Takeshi]

Remove:

REG ADD %KEY% /V TITLE /D "Installing Programs" /f

and all the

REG ADD %KEY%\000 /VE /D

entries.

Just for the record: another option would be to set the "Flags" DWORD value in HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnceEx to "0x00000080". This would disable the status dialog completely. Other values are possible, for instance to create an execution and/or error log file. See Syntax for the RunOnceEx Registry Key for details.
