Installer Wrappers Requiring Button Presses
Hi,

I have a number of .exe installers that need to be installed on a different computers. I'd like to create a wrapper to install them all for me.

The problem is that the installers require user input to check "I agree" checkboxes or click on buttons that say "Next," etc. Is it possible to NSIS to solve a problem like this? If so, can someone point me to some example scripts to get me started?

Thanks for any ideas,
gm

Hi gm!

Do these installers support an answer file or a silent install mode? If yes, it would be the best idea to use the built-in functionalities.

If you really want to do it by throwing key strokes to the installer, try something with vbScript.
