I am trying to do a silent install of Adobe Flash. I have created a simple batch file to go to a particular server and share to runn the install for example "\\servername\flash\install_flash_player_11_active_x_32bit.exe" I cannot get it to run silently I have tried the /s switch, -install Any ideas would help. The batch files does run pauses at the license agreement.

Thanks.

Try "-install -force".

Thanks for the suggestion but it did not work.

Maybe you can try to use the exe file and rename with "short name":

Choose the 32 bit to suit your needs:

Works fine for me, like this:

FlashPlayer32bit.exe -install

I hope that can help you.

5eraph I just tried your suggestion again. I placed the "-install" in separate quotes. Worked like a charm.

I have a link saved for quite some time. I believe it's almost impossible to click through to that page normally.

I really despise web installers that are forced on you without the option to download full package. I suggest the msi version and just going msiexec /quiet /i install_flash_player_11_active_x.msi

[myselfidem]

Msiexec (command-line options)

Download link given post #4

Huh, I somehow missed it. /facepalm

[myselfidem]

Using exe files with -install switches works always fine for me!

Every option you could want is covered in their Administration Guide:

Search for "Adobe Flash Extract" to learn how to pull out the MSI packages, etc. from their Administrator's download. Sign up and they'll usually give you a site license to use it in about 5 minutes.
