Hi,

how can i silently install irfanview 3.92 without that ebay toolbar?

search forum --> didn't help (
command irfanview.exe /? --> didn't help, too (

any ideas?

Have you tried the switches that work with 3.91?

99% chance that these will do the job ok.
Try these =>
Do you mean this..

iview391.exe /silent /desktop=0 /group=0 /allusers=1 /assoc=1
IrfanView-all_plugins.exe /silent

desktop=0 or 1 (Desktop icon)
group=0 or 1 (Start menu group)
Allusers=0 or 1 (Install for all users)
Assoc=1 (Associate file types)

it won't work, because this install switches let google toolbar install with it....

[oioldman]

Ah!
Didn't realise that it now also incorporated that mess of a google toolbar.

I'm at work at present, so won't have time to look, but if i can will during week and see what I can learn and post results, unless somebody beats me to it.

ok, thank you :>

yeah, it's not good that the IrfanView Developer now only commercial s*** is.

[oioldman]

Yeah,
Had a look on his site and noticed that the only change noted is the addition of the ebay option as quoted =>

Some minor bugs/features fixed/added

of course it is optional, but i cant get it off my unattended installation (

Well... I was going to say install it as-is, then launch the uninstallers for the ebay stuff, but I'm not sure it does create uninstall entries for everything (like toolbar buttons and such) and it might be just too bothersome to have to track the registry entries or to repackage the whole thing...

Sometimes, as much as I hate having to do it... It seems AutoIt is almost your last solution, so here goes:

Run("iview392.exe")
WinWaitActive("IrfanView Setup")
AutoItSetOption("SendKeyDelay", 200)
Send("{TAB 2} {TAB 2}{DOWN} {TAB} {TAB} {TAB}{ENTER 2}{TAB 5}{ENTER 2}")
Sleep(1000) 
Send("{ENTER}")

It took a whole 2 minutes to write and it installs clean (no desktop shortcut, no ebay stuff, no file associations).

omg, i'm a noob, how to use this? Oo

[CoffeeFiend]

Download autoit3 (just google it, it's free), then you can compile it to a .exe which will start the installers and automagically press the buttons for you and make it install. That easy, nothing to be scared of
