nitsua Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 (edited) Not exactly sure if this is the place to ask this question, but I don't know where else to start...Problem:I am trying to develop a program that will produce two .iss files (one for installing and another for uninstalling), using the /r argument, that will be used in another program that will handle installing/uninstalling. The program is probably going to be written in C# using Visual Studios.I am running the installer via the command line and I was wondering if there was a way to make the installer pick its default values instead of waiting for user input. I have tried silent install /s, but that still requires user input. The user input in this case is to keep hitting the Next button and then eventually Finish. Since nothing is being changed, such as installation directory, I was hoping there was just a command line argument that would run through the installation without the need for user input. I believe I have the uninstall case figured out. I have been using a combination of /s and /uninst, which seems to be working so far. When ran the installation runs in silent mode, without asking for user input, and then generates a .iss file. This small accomplishment was what encouraged me to seek out a similar argument for the install case, but I have yet to find one.Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am a relatively new to .iss files, Installer command line arguments, and even C#, so please excuse my ignorance. If there is a more suitable forum out there for me to post in, please don't hesitate to point me in the right direction.Thanks!

bj-kaiser Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 http://www.uawiki.org/doku.php?id=silent_a...s:installshieldto use '/s' you first have to run the installation recording the answers to a .iss file with '/r'.Read the linked article for details.
