AVAST! Free Antivirus v.7.0.xxxx - silent install

[skavenger]

After a long tine i've found a easy solution for installing AVAST silent and prevent the background-installation of Google Chrome

With a simple registry trick i prevent the execution of "aswOfferTool.exe" that want install Google Chrome or some other s***.

Just download the actual version of Avast Free AntiVirus direcly from avasts website.

Paste the following code in editor and save them with the specified names.

Name: settings.reg

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\aswOfferTool.exe]
"Debugger"="logonui.exe"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\GoogleUpdate.exe]
"Debugger"="logonui.exe"

Name: settings-off.reg

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\aswOfferTool.exe]

[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\GoogleUpdate.exe]

Name: inst.bat

@echo off
regedit /s settings.reg
start /wait avast_free_antivirus_setup /VERYSILENT /NORESTART /SP- 
regedit /s settings-off.reg

This is quiet easy and you can use the original installer you've downloaded from the website.

Tested and working on a VM a few days ago. Is anyone aware of other switches that further customize the setup, for example choosing which shields (not) to install?

anothe qu.

how can i make the silent installation use another language , i know that the switch is ( /instlang ) but where i can add the laguage i want to ?

[Black_Dove]

hello ,,any answer please ?

[skavenger]

You don't need to add the switch instlang.

Avast installs alway the language read from system.

If you have Windows in Italian - Avast will install in Italian too.

Additional languages are unimportant and not so easy to install in silent-node.
