Install It All

This tool that I made makes it easy to install multiple exe files from within the same directory. Basically all you have to do is caLL the tool from a script file with 2 parameters. 1st Parameter is the path to the directory you want installed and the 2nd Parameter is the switches you want to use.

For instance... let's say you have a directory called: HOTFIXES. Inside this directory you have downloaded a bunch of hotfixes you want to autoinstall to your system. (Make sure all of the hotfixes use the same switches )

You would put this in your script:

d:\InstallItAll.exe "d:\HOTFIXES" "/q /n /z"

Once this has been executed all of the hotfixes will be installed that are in that folder.

You can use this tool for any type of exe file. For instance if you have a bunch of exe files you've made with autoit (which do not need switches) you would just put the path for parameter 1 and "" for parameter 2.

You could even use it to integrate multiple hotfixes into your XP disk by using "/integrate /quiet" for parameter 2.

Let me know how well it works for you. I may make the tool better down the road.

Correct. This tool is made for exe's that have the same parameters. It's main use in my opinion would be for hotfixes... or exe's which have no parameters.(Like custom made autoit install scripts.) If you have a lot of exe's with different parameters this tool would not be of any use for you. It is just made to simplify things when it comes to installing many exe's with the same parameters.
Thanks for the feedback.

sounds like it might be handy to install Adobe Reader 7 plus updates .01 & .02 !! (and if you go nuts, why not the language thingy and photo something se that it wants to install too )

[Wesmosis]

seems cool!
consider me as a Beta tester :)

Nice one but winrar does the same & allows different switches to be used.

[Gobby]

Sounds good but which order does it run the updates???

I wasn't aware that you could install more than one file in a directory with winrar. BTW... how would it be able to do multiple switches? Also... the point of the program is to install multiple exe's which have the same switches.

You could put e.g. inno setup setup.exes into APPS\INNO and all it there, InstallShields into APPS\INSTALLSHIELD etc and you would be able to call it.
Thanks Siginet, you saved me typing every entry in svcpack.inf!
