On my first unattended cd, I was able to silently install google toolbar using the /q /d switches in my runonce, but all of a sudden those switches dont work-even if i try to install it from a command prompt it wont install silently, if i go to a command prompt and type googletoolbarinstaller.exe, then the install will start but not silently of course-does anyone have an idea if I have to use a different switch? Any help would be appreciated

Now only /q will work as the silent switch

GoogleToolbar.exe /q


If you are talking about latest Toolbar v4 beta

If you download the new V4 beta enterprise version, it comes in the form of an .msi file. There's also documentation on configuring the settings both via Group Policy and by using registry entries. Should be straight forward enough. So far I tried it out by doing a GPO push and configuring via GPO as well and it works like a charm.

I'm going see if I can't make a switchless silent installer for it and get the thing to install at svcpack.inf. I must say though that with IE 7 Beta 2 it's starting to seem less and less necessary.
