Hello everybody,

I want to include acdsee 3.1 in my unattended CD, I use this switch;

start /wait %systemdrive%\install\Applications\AcdSee\ACDSee310-FR.exe /s /v"/qb- USERNAME=\"NAME\" COMPANYNAME=\"COMPANY\" SLL_LICENSENUMBER=\"SERIAL\" REBOOT=REALLYSUPPRESS"

but during installation I get this message:

Quote

ACDSee was not install properly.
Please restart ACDSee installation.

Help please!

Thank's you!

I believe you got the above switch from some thread meant for RunOnceEx install method - if so, just remove the unnecessary slashes and quotes in the command and try again.

If not, the easiest solution I can think of, is to run that same setup in normal windows mode, to make an administrative install point (using "/A" switch). Then, when it is done, you can simply run its MSI without needing all those complications, like this:

start /wait %systemdrive%\install\Applications\AcdSee\install.msi /QB- USERNAME=NAME COMPANYNAME=COMPANY SLL_LICENSENUMBER="SERIAL" REBOOT=REALLYSUPPRESS

If neither of the solutions above work, I'm sure that somebody else will come along, who has tried what you are doing, and reply to this.
