Hi All. Currently i am working on an application Intel IntelMPI. I have provided with exe as a source file and i extracted it but it doesn't have MSI in it. Also i am unable to find the switches for silent installation. I am writing a vb script to install it silently. So can anyone help me?

You will need to recapture the exe, to convert it into a MSI. But I would recommened spending 1/2 a day to find that silent switch - no point reinventing the wheel.

Have you tried setup.exe /?

-s

-silent

/s

/silent

 

To recapture you will need Admin Studio Repackager or use Bobs *free* App Deploy (whooray for the old days) Repackager. Not sure if its Win7 supported though.

Good luck.

    Use installation monitor (top radio button), its pretty good in the 2012 version.
    Use a clean machine etc, a virtual machine would be best, then you can snap back to clean states. - rileyz 10 years ago
