Ever since I started making myself UAXP disks I've been trying to get certain programs to install in a way that I like and silently via RunOnceEx.cmd. Most often I just would do a search in the forum and find that someone had already made an installer to fit my needs but some times I would come up short so I'd have to make my own. So here they are. They are all made with WinRAR so if you have WinRAR you can open them up and make some modifications if you want. They are made the way that I like so if you like them you like them if you don't you don't but I'm not going to make any real changes to them so don't bother asking. Oh and I HATE HATE HATE desktop icons so none of my installers will ever put shortcuts on the desktop... EVER.


Foxit PDF Reader
installs to:\%systemdrive%\Program Files\Foxit\
size:1.08MB
notes:associates with pdf files, not uninstallable from add/remove programs in CP <- I will change this some time soon, I'm just a little lazy.


Alt-Tab PowerToy
installs to:\%SystemRoot%\System32\
size:77.7KB
notes:runs at startup, not uninstallable from add/remove programs in CP


Auto Hide Safely Remove Hardware Icon
installs to:\%SystemRoot%\System32\
size:165KB
notes:places a shortcut to SRH in "%AllUsersProfile%\Start Menu\Programs\Accessories", runs at startup, It doesn't just do a typical "always hide" but instead REMOVES the icon from that system tray, not uninstallable from add/remove programs in CP


Winamp 2.81 with the Winamp 5.xx Modern Skin
installs to:\%systemdrive%\Program Files\Winamp\
size:653KB
notes:shortcut placed in "%AllUsersProfile%\Start Menu\Programs\Accessories", only audio support, some other modifications, I use this because it is way way less of a resource hog


AudioGrabber 1.83
installs to:\%systemdrive%\Program Files\AudioGrabber\
size:1.29MB
notes:shortcut placed in "%AllUsersProfile%\Start Menu\Programs\Accessories", some other minor tweaks to the settings


VirtualDub-MPEG-2 1.6.11
installs to:\%systemdrive%\Program Files\VirtualDub\
size:991KB
notes:shortcut placed in "%AllUsersProfile%\Start Menu\Programs\Accessories"


CCleaner 1.27 Lite (no yahoo crap)
installs to:\%ProgramFiles%\CCleaner\
size:445KB
notes:shortcut placed in "%AllUsersProfile%\Start Menu\Programs\Accessories", some other tweaks to the settings


Paint.NET 2.6
installs to:\%ProgramFiles%\Paint.NET\
size:3.41MB
notes:shortcut placed in "%AllUsersProfile%\Start Menu\Programs\Accessories", only support for x86, auto updates off, associates with JPG, BMP, PNG, and TGA


Ad-Aware SE
installs to:\%systemdrive%\Program Files\Ad-Aware\
size:3.41MB
notes:shortcut placed in "%AllUsersProfile%\Start Menu\Programs\Accessories", definitions file from SE1R97 13.03.2006


Resource Hacker
installs to:\%systemdrive%\Program Files\Resource Hacker\
size:534KB
notes:shortcut placed in "%AllUsersProfile%\Start Menu\Programs\Accessories"


ATI Control Panel
installs to:C:\Program Files\ATI Control Panel\ (couldn't use %SystemDrive% or %ProgramFiles% with this installer, sorry)
size:10.2MB
notes:you CAN use ATI classic control panel with the new CATALYST drivers, no tray icon, Hot Key Poller service disabled, no ATIPTA, registration off and other minor tweaks, I use this because it is less of a resource hog


ATI CATALYST Control Center
installs to:%Program Files%\ATI Technologies\ (should be %ProgramFiles%, but I'm not 100% sure how the .msi saves those settings for an admin install)
size:12.2MB
notes:no tray icon, Hot Key Poller service disabled, no ATIPTA, registration off, classic skin and other minor tweaks


Also for some of the installers I use .cmd's to configure them and take care of the add/remove crap and the .cmd's call "cmdow @ /HID" to make them as silent as possible so you may want to have CMDOW.EXE in your system32 directory.

[Bâshrat the Sneaky]

Why "%SystemDrive%"\Program Files" instead of "%ProgramFiles%"?

hmm... I don't know why, I guess I'll change that if/when I need to rebuild them for some reason; However, if anyone wanted to rebuild them by themselves it really wouldn't be too hard to change the install directory. The .cmd's I use to do the setups are pretty simple, and aside from that all one would have to do is edit the SFX comments.

Resource Hacker has been removed from download.

[Karoly67]

Would you re-upload Winamp? I got this message when I tried to download it:

File /files/15744415/Winamp.exe.html has been deleted.
Reason: No download for a longer period. Inactivity-timeout exceeded.

Thanks a lot.

Could you please re-upload Audiograbber? Same reason as the above post.
