Awesome, Schadenfroh! But I have some newbie questions.

• I see "sleep" in your script. Do I need to download a freebie for "sleep" to work, or is that built into VB?
  
• Does this script go in the AVG6 subdirectory to run properly?
  
• Also, how do you call a .vbs file from a batch file?
  avg.vbs
  OR
  call avg.vbs
  OR
  start /w avg.vbs
  OR
  ???

THANKS!!!

bump for free edition

I found out how to run the vb script inside the folder with the setup.exe for AVG works like a charm. That script was awesome I never had messed with VB script before I ran that and it was like the cartoons where the big lightbulb lights up over your head I will tweak that for other applications Thanks for writing that script man.

NO_WELCOME:
NO_AVGW_STARTUP:
are Invalid command line arguments.

How do I install the update file and AVG 7.0 together so it will be updated? John

[MAVERICKS CHOICE]

Just wandering if anyone can throw some light on this dld the avg6 free ver but complains when installing the serial does not match the language verion as Bachus mentioned earlier in this post. The version I receive is avg6732fu_free.exe now Im thinking this is the incorrect ver & require the US one. Every time I go to dl it I dont get the choice of packages each time I get the same as above?

I am getting an error when I try to install AVG7
Installer initialization failed due to following error:
Undefined error: Invalid line in the install script file "C:\Install\Applications\AVG7\avgsetup.ini" at line 1.

here are my two codes:
avgsetup.ini

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

start.cmd

@echo off
title Program Install

ECHO.

%SETUP% /SCRIPT_FILE "%systemdrive%\Install\Applications\AVG7\avgsetup.ini" %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9

echo.
pause
exit

If anyone could help me out I'd appreciate it.

Currently use these rows:

Quote

@echo off

start c:\install\avg\setup.exe /HIDE /@ c:\install\avg\avg_net.cfg

exit

How I can modify, in order to make install in RunOnceEx from cd?

Thank you.

I think I can modify that script to not make AVG reboot the machine, but for the life of me I can't figure out how to send the SPACEBAR as a key in a VBS script. Anyone know?

WshShell.SendKeys " "

Here we go. This should do fix it so it runs without rebooting the system. Thank you, Mazin.

Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
WshShell.Run ("setup.exe")
WScript.Sleep 4000
WshShell.SendKeys "~"

what is the command line for avg with the script?

[mazin]

No command line! Just put it in the same folder with EXE, then run it.

[jos3ph]

does exist a switch for avg 6.7 free edition?

[MAVERICKS CHOICE]

RE the latest free version 7.0 anyway known to kill post install crap eg updating etc screens during ua, mind you it doesnt halt the rest of the installation but tends to hide the runoncex install screen unless you click through all the avg popups?
Im using this to install ua:

REG ADD %KEY%\015 /VE /D "AVG Ver7.0 Free" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\015 /V 1 /D "%CDROM%\Software\AVG7\avg70free_296a409.exe /HIDE" /f

[MAVERICKS CHOICE]

Had a look at the AVG site & they don't appear to have any support for this product setup.exe works with the \Hide switch only.
Maybe Nologic can help us out with an Autoit script when hes got time that is?

[kC_]

ECHO.
ECHO Installing AVG Free v7.0 build 300a419
ECHO Please wait...
start /wait %systemdrive%\install\AVGFreev7\avg70free_300a419.exe /HIDE 

/DONT_START_APPS /NO_WELCOME /NO_AVGW_STARTUP /QUIT_IF_INSTALLED /LOG 

"C:\AVG7INST.LOG"

works wonderfully;)


the serial i have in a txt filein the instal dir called "avg7 key.txt"

REG ADD %KEY%\015 /VE /D "AVG Ver7.0 Free" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\015 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\install\AVG7\avg70free_296a409.exe /HIDE /DONT_START_APPS /NO_WELCOME /NO_AVGW_STARTUP /QUIT_IF_INSTALLED" /f
