Hi
there


I still can't figure out how to install Winzip 9
in silent mode.I search throught the archive
of this forum and i finally write a batch file
like below.It doesnt work .What i am doing wrong
here ??

ECHO.
ECHO WinZip v9.0
ECHO Please Wait...
MD "%ProgramFiles%"\WinZip
copy install\Winzip "%ProgramFiles%"\WinZIp
start /wait "%ProgramFiles%"\WinZip\WinZip32.exe /noqp /notip /autoinstall


Thanks for helping

You got the idea, but I'm not sure of your placement of the quotation marks.

Anyways, yuo can simply put in winzip in your $OEM$\$Progs\WinZip directory on your install CD and call it with the proper slashes, ie. "%ProgramFiles%\WinZip\WinZip32.exe" /noqp /notip /autoinstall (I have not checked if the switches are ok, but from memory it looks good). It should work fine.

This is the best guide to follow. Create a SFX, and that'ts it.

FYI -- Winzip 9.0 SR-1 was just released:

Winzip 9.0 SR-1

I tried it out, and the silent installation process still works the same as 9.0.



If you have a volume-licensing deal, be on the lookout for an e-mail with a special link to download SR-1. I got one yesterday.
