Re: for distribution of setup

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Silent installation is available for many Microsoft products using command
line option like /q. Did you try any of command line options?

I have tackled this problem in a brutish way:

From sysinternals.com i downloaded a utility called pskill.exe and
pslist.exe

From a command prompt, run pslist -t -s
This will show the processes running.

Now in a different command window, run your exe and check the pslist
window to find out the NAME of the process that is controlling the
Agreement box. Write that name down.

In your installation script, you can do something like this:

@echo off
mystupidprogram.exe
pskill mystupidprogram's_agreementbox

The mystupidprogram's_agreementbox is the process that launches the
Agreement dialog box you recorded above.

Hope this wasn't too confusing..

Using a script to install the .exe I would wait

It all depends on the program.....

I always try to extract the exe when possible.....sometimes you find a
msi
inside.

Which program are you trying to install?

doesn't have an answer file by default.
