Opera 9 silently installs using /S switch but for multiple users .. any idea on how to do it for a single user only?

Hi slimzky

I also use the /S switch to install Opera 6 (Weekly Builds Here!!)

I also install my profile as well using a Winrar exe file:

1) Configure Opera the way you like it
2) Open the Opera folder in the Programs folder
3) Highlight operadef6.ini and the Profile folder
4) Assuming you have Winrar installed, Right click and select Add to archive.
5) Rename the file Profile and put a tick in to the box Create SFX archive. It should now read Profile.exe
6) Go to the Comment tab and enter the following:

Path=%Programfiles%\Opera
Silent=2
Overwrite=1

7) I use the following to install everything (it's from my WPI config.js)

prog[pn]=['<font color="#FF99FF">Opera 9 build 8265']
uid[pn]=['FONTCOLORFF99FFOPERA85']
picw[pn]=['128']
pich[pn]=['128']
textl[pn]=['Bottom']
texti[pn]=['1']
ordr[pn]=[590]
cmd1[pn]=['%cdrom%\\Install\\Opera90p2_8265\\Opera.exe /s']
cmd2[pn]=['%cdrom%\\Install\\Opera90p2_8265\\profile.exe']
cat[pn]=['Internet']
pn++

8) I then delete the Opera folder in Docs and Settings without any ill effect.

OH, to answer your question, No i dont know how to install Opera for single users from the Opera.exe file, but this seems to work.

thnx.. dude.. il try creating a batch file to delete the profile folder from docs & settings. then il import my own prof inside opera.

Sorry for my english.
I've renamed my windows, program files and all other system dirs names to my own. So when i will put OperaDef6.ini to *.sfx i need to change default dirs names to variables like %SYSTEMDRIVE%. But there is no variable for C:\Documents and Settings\Администратор\Application Data\Opera\o90w_8333 to put there Profile folder. How can i put in win distributive Variables to use its when install applications?

variables isnt neccessay in Winrar SFX.. i dont use it in some of my sfx installers.

just try using the full path like so:

;Opera Profile

Path=C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application Data\Opera
Silent=1
Overwrite=1

use /v" /qn"

or

/s /v"/qn"

opera 9 is msi compressed in exe
one of these should work

[stasys44]

Efharisto,

Switches work, should not be spaces:
Opera9ClassicSetup.exe /s /v"/qn"
or
"Opera 9 Classic Setup.exe" /s /v"/qn"

[InViSibLe Gr]

i think it has to be without spaces
rename it to setup.exe or something like that to be sure

[MGadAllah]

download the latest version from the website
use the following switch :

/s /V"/passive CREATE_DESKTOP_ICON=0 CREATE_QUICKLAUNCH_ICON=1 CREATE_STARTMENU_ICONS=1 MULTI_USER_SETTING=0 INSTALLER_LANGUAGE=en"

It installs from the MSI (using /quiet) but there are no shortcuts
on the start menu, desktop or quick launch, hmmmm.

Its OK I did the old XCOPY trick for the shortcuts

@LeveL
Now that Opera 9.01 Build 8552 is out, what would be the parameter for spanish language setup? This:

Opera_9.01_International_Setup.exe /s /V"/passive CREATE_DESKTOP_ICON=0 CREATE_QUICKLAUNCH_ICON=1 CREATE_STARTMENU_ICONS=1 MULTI_USER_SETTING=0 INSTALLER_LANGUAGE=es"

??
TIA

EDIT:
Nope, that won't do it, the correct syntax is:

INSTALLER_LANGUAGE=es-la

But if I want to install it in polish language what should I write?

Just replace the two letters with the letters for polish (look at the end of the switch)... EN stands for English, I do not know what is the letters for Polish...but this is the key mate

/s /V"/passive CREATE_DESKTOP_ICON=0 CREATE_QUICKLAUNCH_ICON=1 CREATE_STARTMENU_ICONS=1 MULTI_USER_SETTING=0 INSTALLER_LANGUAGE=en"
