msiexec.exe pops up a dialog box "windows Installer"
Hello,

I am using the msiexec.exe to install some Merge Modules (MSM).

The instruction looks like:

ExecWait '$PROGRAMFILES\PRO\TEMP_DEL\msiexec.exe /i $PROGRAMFILES\ PRO\TEMP_DEL\DCOM95.Msm /quiet'

The problem is that when the merge module is installed a dialog box from Windows Installer pops up and the User needs to hit OK in order to continue the installation.

How can I run the msiexec.exe in a silent mode (Not requiring an input)?

I have tried /quiet and /passive options with no success.

Thanks all for your advice.

N

How is this a NSIS question?

Try /qb- maybe or check http://technet.microsoft.com/library...8en-us%29.aspx

You should also quote paths like the docs tell you to do:

ExecWait '"c:\foo\bar.exe" /X "c:\YY" /Z'
