Here goes the syntax —

ECHO Installing FastFolders v3.0.0 (Context Menu System Extension-Easily Access Folder)
start /wait %systemdrive%\install\Applications\FF\FFSetup.exe /Progra~1/FastFolders

Can Someone Please suggest how to use %ProgramFiles% variable as the install path. Cause maybe someone wants it installed on DEFGH:... progfiles folder. thanks in advance

1.3 Installation & Uninstallation
To install FastFolders, simply run "FFSetup.exe". The Setup program will guide you through all necessary steps. If you want to remove FastFolders from your computer, select "Uninstall" from the FastFolders program group or use "Add/Remove Software" in the Windows Control Panel.

Unattended setup: if you want to install FastFolders automatically, without user interface, please include the installation path as a command line parameter. Also, any file included in the command line will be copied to the installation path by the setup program. Here is an example:

FFSetup.exe "C:\Program Files\FastFolders" License.dlc

This command line will install FastFolders to the default installation path and copy the license file "License.dlc" to the installation path. "License.dlc" must be in the same folder as "FFSetup.exe" so that the setup program can find it.

After unattended setup, a text file "FFSetup.log" will be created. It contains the result of the installation.

Avant Browser

I have discovered a clover way of silent installing Avant Browser (any version). You can do the .vbs install or do this:

1. Install Avant Browser on a working install of Windows.
2. Go to %systemdrive%\Program Files\Avant Browser\ or where you installed Avant Browser.
3. Copy the contents of the folder to a folder called Avant Browser in your $Progs folder if you are using the $OEM$ method.
4. Copy the shortcut leading to %systemdrive%\Program Files\Avant Browser\iexplore.exe to your start menu folders.
5. When you slient install XP, Avant Browser will automatically be copied over.

Avant Browser WILL WORK this way. I tested it and it works without using the installer.

What's more! See in Lang folder. Delete any languages you don't think you'll need. I've deleted all but the English one. Still works! Avant didn't complain.

Available switches for Spybot S&D 1.2 -- looked around the forum and couldn't find any so I found these @ appdeploy.com

Spybot S&D 1.2 switches -- here is link to the page

Here is a list of command line parameters that the Spybot-S&D main executable (spybotsd.exe) supports:

/taskbarhide
Runs Spybot-S&D completely hidden (no window, no taskbar icon), so make absolutely sure you use it only in combination with /autoclose (otherwise it would remain in memory sitting idle). Useful only in combination with /autocheck, /autoupdate or /autoimmunize, as it cannot be controlled when completely invisible.
/minimized
Starts the window minimized.
/uninstall
Uninstalls Spybot-S&D. This command line parameter is very outdated - unins00.exe should be used instead!
/blinduser
Starts with support for blind users (special menus).
/autoupdate
Does an update after starting the program.
/autocheck
Starts scanning immediately.
/autofix
Fixes problems after scan.
/autoclose
Closes program after it has scanned or updated.
/autoimmunize
Runs the immunization at program start.
/onlyspyware
Fixes only spyware (red) entries with /autofix, leaving all usage tracks as they are.
/easymode
Starts with easier interface for newbies.
And here is a list of command line parameters that the Spybot-S&D installer (spybotsd12.exe) supports:

/silent
Will display the progress during installation, but not the wizard.
/verysilent
Even the progress will not be shown. Errors etc. would still be shown.
/nocancel
Disables the Cancel and Close button. Useful with /silent.
/dir="x:\dirname"
Installs into that directory instead of the default one.
/group="folder name"
Installs into a program group of that name instead of the default one.
/noicons
Avoids creation of any icons for the installed softwae.
/components="comma separated list of component names"
Installs the given components instead of the default ones. Components are main, blind (icons for blind users), language (all language files) and skins.

GOOGLE TOOLBAR

Hi, i've been working on a way to install Google toolbar along with my hotfixes.

I've tried many things and i found that the google toolbar was only a dll. So i used Iexpress and created a .exe.

In the command line, i put: regsvr32 -s -i thenameofthedll.dll

I put the usual options and it works.

Since my hotfixes come when i'm able to use commands from my Os, i found that this method was the better one since i've tried to put switches on the original file and it didn't work as i wished.

Tell me what you think ?

While looking for switches for irfanview I found the following in the irfanview FAQ:

Quote

Q: I am an administrator. How can I silent install/uninstall IrfanView?
A: Usually, you can download the ZIP version of IrfanView and Plugins and deploy the files.

Self install versions have special start options for silent install (example, version 3.90):
1) IrfanView:

iview390.exe /silent /folder="c:\test folder\irfanview" /desktop=1 /group=1 /allusers=0 /assoc=1

Options:
folder: destination folder; if not indicated: old IrfanView folder is used, if not found: "Program Files" folder used
desktop: create desktop shortcut; 0 = no, 1 = yes
group: create group in Start menu; 0 = no, 1 = yes

allusers: desktop/group links are for all users; 0 = current user, 1 = all users
assoc: set file associations; 1 = images only, 2 = select all

2) PlugIns:
all_plugins.exe /silent

3) Uninstall:
iv_uninstall.exe /silent

These options were introduced with the latest 3.90 version.

It did the trick for me and i hope other people can benefit from this information

Here is the breakdown for the MSN Toolbar:

If you extract the setup executable, (you can use winrar or winzip for this), you will find a file called mtbs.exe

Now if you try to pass the normal switches to that program, it gives you an error.
But what I did is try passing the switches that the Messenger 6.2 MSI uses, and sure enough, it accepts them.

So...I tried some others. Here are the ones I found so far that do anything:

(The format is <path>mtbs.exe <switch> There is no "/")

c=Uninstall but not silent

d=Launches the normal install for just the portion that sets the "Making MSN Search your default search engine..." with a check box to change language to english. Along with "Finish", "Cancel", and "Help" buttons.

e=Launches the normal install along with all dialogs, but no check boxes for make MSN default search, or set home page to MSN. (Does not set them)

f=Same as "e" from what I can tell, except it actually sets the Making MSN Search your default search engine..." even though there is no checkbox for it.

i= Launches the normal install along with all dialogs and includes check boxes to make MSN default search, and Set home page to MSN.

j=Silent Install, but also launches IE to the "Get Started" page. (Don't know yet if it sets MSN to be the default search, or not.)

t=Silent Uninstall

u=Uninstall but not silent

So for example, the install would be:

mtbs.exe j

Or what ever switch you want.

OR=blue]Found a way to install the Ati Catalyst Drivers and also the Audigy Drivers!

Ati Catalyst
Download the Ati Catalyst from the Ati Tech...-site, execute the setup (with -R, case sensitive!) on a test-pc, or your own PC where you have the Ati Radeon GPU-equiped videocard. In the first stage of the installation it will ask you for a directory for temp-files, which aren't getting deleted after the installation. Copy the directory in your temp-dir with the Ati Catalyst-files to $OEM$\$1\Install\AtiCatalyst
Now you have to add this to your batchfile:

ECHO.
ECHO Installing Ati Catalyst!
ECHO Please wait...
start /wait %systemdrive%\Install\AtiCatalyst\issetup.exe -s

Creative Audigy
Just copy the contents from your CD to $OEM$\$1\Install\CreativeAudigy
(the directories are: Audio, CTRun, CTShared, License, Manual, Register and Warranty. Things not written here are not needed)
Get a setup.iss the same way as you did it for the Ati Catalyst. Put it in $OEM$\$1\Install\CreativeAudigy\Audio\Setup and put this in your batch-file:

ECHO.
ECHO Installing the Creative Audigy Software and drivers!
ECHO Please wait...
start /wait %systemdrive%\Install\CreativeAudigy\Audio\Setup\setup.exe -s

In your Audio are also seperated directories for the programs, but the setup.exe in Setup-directory will make your life much easier! Could put my setup.iss online, but we all have a different opinion about what's needed or not.

NOTE: You may already find a setup.iss in the directories where the setup.exe resides! Just overwrite it with your new one in your windows directory. At the Ati-setup, you NEED the issetup.exe from the extracted setup! The one you download is just a kind of .zip

Disclaimer: If something goes wrong... I'm not responsable!

@ KewlKiddo

little help please

my install didn't ask for temp dir.....

but I found a windir\temp folder with 16 ati files

in it, is that the one?? do you overwrite or are they in

a folder of there own and what is it called???

sorry for the dumb questions but I've had big trouble

with this driver being silent all along........

it's the 27.8 ver right?? 

thanks Bonedaddy

Before the real installation starts you get the C:\Ati\Support-choose options...

[KewlKiddo]

Sorry, my switches are incorrect, I wanna say sorry for that. However, I found a new SUCCESSFULL way for Ati Catalyst!

Extract it like described; Make a setup.iss for the Driver- and CPanel-directory!

start /wait %systemroot%\Install\AtiCatalyst\Driver\setup.exe /s
start /wait %systemroot%\Install\AtiCatalyst\CPanel\setup.exe /s

This one works for sure

Wasn't able to test the WDM, since I don't own an AIW! Will post a working Audigy-setupbatch asap!

Again: Sorry for my n00bness

AutoIt 3 for Unattended installation: (CMD.EXE is required for some obscured raisons)

REG ADD %KEY%\100 /V 1 /D "CMD.EXE /C%SystemDrive%\Install\AutoIt3\autoit-v3-setup.bld101.exe /S" /f

Daemon Tools 3.46

For the latest Daemon Tools (3.46)
After running the installer, get the .msi installer from

C:\WINDOWS\Downloaded Installations\DAEMON Tools 3.46\

Or on whatever drive your installation may reside.

Then the switches are
/qn REBOOT=Suppress

This is what I added in my runonceex:

REG ADD %KEY%\005 /VE /D "Daemon Tools" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\005 /V 1 /D "%CDROM%\install\daemon\daemon346.msi /qn REBOOT=Suppress" /f

Winiso 5.3

I had to use the /SILENT switch in order for it to work.
