Installing Hotfixes Using the Automated /Integrate switch Method

[mhtaylor]

Having found the manual method (doing each hotfix one at a time in the Run box) very slow, I'd like to learn how to do the automated method explained in Step 3 of the beginner's section of the Unattended Guide.

I note the batch file that was supplied in the Guide for this purpose, and that it is to be placed in the same folder as the hotfixes.

My question is - how do I start it going, that is get the batch file to do its job?

Thankyou!

I found my answer in a post from about four days ago!

I noticed that this batch file code given in guide (http://unattended.msfn.org/unattended.xp/view/web/23/) integrates hotfixes so that I have to confirm each hotfix integration by cliking OK button..but how to make it all automatic so in the end of all hotfixes integration I confirm it?

Thanks

Try change this FOR %%f IN (*.exe) DO "%%f" /Integrate:C:\XPCD to this FOR %%f IN (*.exe) DO "%%f" /passive /Integrate:C:\XPCD.

But I think better way is to slipstream hotfixes in hfslip. What you only need to do is to put all hotfixes in one folder and run program. Every hotfix will be slipstreamed automatically.

change

FOR %%f IN (*.exe) DO "%%f" /Integrate:C:\XPCD

to silent no progress bar:

FOR %%f IN (*.exe) DO "%%f" /Integrate:C:\XPCD /q

or silent with progress bar:

FOR %%f IN (*.exe) DO "%%f" /Integrate:C:\XPCD /p
