LOL.....I found out how to do it 10 minutes later. You don't need any application switches for Registry First Aid 3.3x .

I also can add the serial number successfully. Just copy & paste to a text file and rename it to xxxx.reg

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\KsL Software\RFA\3.3]
"Name"="xxx xxxxx"
"Data"="xxxxxx-xxxxxx-xxxxxx-xxxxxx-xxxxx"



"Just insert the name and serial number"



This is my runonceex sample.

REG ADD %KEY%\065 /VE /D "Registry First Aid 3.3" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\065 /V 1 /D "%CDROM%\Software\registry\setup.exe
REG ADD %KEY%\065 /V 2 /D "REGEDIT /S %CDROM%\Software\registry\rfa.reg" /f

The new versions of Registry First Aid uses Inno Setup so you would use the switches for Inno Setup.

I wouldn't know at this stage cos' i have the 3.3.1 build 425. I think it still might work though, if not use the /qn" /f or /s" /f command. That seems to work on alot of things.

lol "seems to work"

/qn is a *.msi file switch :P so it should work on MOST msi files, nothing else :)

Probably (since I don't use it).
And as a pre-emptive strike - this is the switch for Inno setup-based installers:
/VERYSILENT /SP-

@ MCT, i don't think you know what you're talking about. I use that switch to install my Kazaa lite resurrection plus some other programs and that in itself is not an msi file..........LOL

@prathapml that /VERYSILENT /SP- switch doesn't work registry first aid, even though it is an inno based installer.

Okay then, does "/SILENT /SP-" work?

Here is what I added to to RunOnceEx to get it to install silently...

REG ADD %KEY%\042 /VE /D "Registry First Aid 3.4" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\042 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\Install\Applications\RegistryFirstAid3\rfasetup.exe /SILENT /SP-" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\042 /V 2 /D "taskkill.exe /F /IM reg1aid.exe" /f

Anyone figure out how to turn off the Check for Update Online after the initial install from RunOnceEX? This and having the Stupid Tray Icon (until you remove it from within Registry First Aid) are starting to p*** me off.
