REG ADD %KEY%\160 /VE  /D "Diskeeper 8.0.478" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\160 /V 1 /D "%CDROM%\Software\Diskeeper\DKsetup.exe /s /v/qn" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\160 /V 2 /D "REGEDIT /S %CDROM%\Software\Diskeeper\Diskeeper.reg" /f

Diskeeper.exe /s /v/qn

That's what i use, and it works perfecty.


BTW, i did not extract the msi, its still in its orignal installer

I have a cleaner solution!

Diskeeper is packaged using InstallShield "PackageForTheWeb" which means you can use the "/a" switch to pass switches to the underlying SETUP.EXE. No need to extract anything from the original DKprofessional.exe :

START "" /WAIT "DKprofessional.exe" /s /a /s /v"/qb"

Other solutions work just fine, but I have a fetish for preserving original files (plus it makes it easier to add a new version, just drop the downloaded EXE into the directory.)
