wait command / silent installation
Hi im quite new to this programm, so i have some questions i hope you can help me out.

1.) i want to kill a process that no problem but i want the installation to wait for about 5 seconds after the programm got killed because it needs some time to shutdown, how can i use a wait command for it??

2.) i want to install my programm silent like this: programm.exe /S -test

when i write -test i want to install the section "test" how is the command for it? to choose which section shall be installed?

1. Use Sleep.
2. Use GetOptions in the documentation.

when i type in the cmd.exe : setup.exe /S (???????)

You need to write code to check if a parameter has been passed with GetOptions and then enable the correct section. There are no built in parameters.
