Maybe you want to take a look here - there you can read that this is the command for updating AVG8 from a folder:

"%programfiles%\AVG\AVG8\avgupd.exe" /PRI=4 /SESSION=0 /SOURCE=folder /PATH="D:\AVG-Updates"

BTW, how did you find out all the switches?

Hi Cool400,
I've seen the post (and already replied). It's working great, (even better without the pri and session parameters).

Most of the switches were somewhere in this topic, and I just used them. But some time ago, I've wanted to install AVG in another directory other than the default, and as far as i know, there was no known option for that. So I started looking in
the installation directory of AVG. To make a long story short, I opened setup.exe in a hexeditor and did a search for one of the known options (HIDE or DONT_START_APPS or something like that). That's how i found out about "TARGET_DIR" and recently NOAVGTOOLBAR and that the option SCRIPT_FILE was there. Once I've found the options, I just played around with it.

The following option for instance in only useful if you have "Microsoft Visual C++ redist ..." installed before AVG is installed.

/NO_VC_REDIST

Otherwise the installation of AVG fails.

I can only tell you where to look, but from there on, It's also a big mystery for me.

Thanks for your information!

I asked myself if there's a way to download the AVG-Updates via a batch file? But it seems that they have different names everytime they're updated...

Has anyone an idea how to batch-download them? Or maybe we can use any file of the AVG-EXEs (e.g. avgupd.exe) to download available updates to a specified folder and not to install them?

Best regards

Hi guys,

I recently have a task for my job and it was to install AVG 8.1 Free silently.

Here what I done:

avgsetup.ini:

HIDE:
DONT_START_APPS:
NO_WELCOME:
LOG: "C:\AVG7INST.LOG"
NAME: "UserName"
COMPANY: "Company"

No serial needed, it is include with the free AVG!

Install_Silent_AVG.bat:

@echo off
ECHO Install Silent AVG 8.1..
SET SETUP="avg_free_stf_en_8_169a1359\avgsetup.exe"
%SETUP% /SCRIPT_FILE "avg_free_stf_en_8_169a1359\avgsetup.ini" %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9

I know that you'll be able to change it for your own use, but... I just share what I've done!

Best regards,
Matt
