[Solved + Merged] Silent Installer Issues

[ottuh]

Everything working fine now, except for one thing.

My silent install for dotnetfx isn't working, the installation isn't silent and during the installation I get different errors.

After the other silent installs are finished and the pc booted into Windows I can run the installation with silent command from CMD without any problems.

How to fix this?

my silent instals are not silent when installing windows 7.

I for instance want to hava a silent installer of [slim] .NET Framework 4 Full x86/x64 with the /y switch.

However, during installation I still receive a pop up screen.

In previous versions of Winkit it worked, where can I download old versions?

pop up screen?

If I'm using the same .Net framework as you, it asks me do I want to install the developer as well as client? TBH it was taking that long in VB to install I now just leave the file in the Apps folder, that way I can install when I need to. Not everybody needs .Net 4.

same problem as ottuh, the installation is not silent, I have to click next etc. Same is true for other programs than dotNet

[Legolash2o]

You sure the installer is silent, if so why add the '/y', also if you don't want it to be installed everytime just untick 'Always Install' in AIO Integrator and it will ask you if you want to install if when Windows has finished installing.

tsjippy, I don't have any problems with ricktendo's installer with the latest Win Toolkit 1.4.0.15. However, that installer must be made silent first with one of the swithces provided by ricktendo in his first post. Did you do that? I use the /ai with no problems, but I don't rely on Win Toolkit, I make it silent with this first.

Lego, however please investigate the .msu's not installing with the latest Runonce in 1.4.0.15...

I will check, however i can't now as i have to go to work and don't finish till late (9 hours time).

[RicaNeaga]

Oh, so can I give you a non-school related long homework also? ~ joking, since my feedback on tweaks is going to be massive

[ottuh]

I have set the '/y' switch, but still the installation isn't silent. Tested it on Windows 7 Ultimate x64 and x86

@ottuh, which installer are you having problems with? As RicaNeaga said, if the installer it self has a switch to make it silent, sometimes it helps to use it as well.

Cheers and Regards

As I reported in the other post I am definitely having a problem with the .NET and other silent installers using v15

I had originally been using the SFXmaker but decided that it didn't make sense since it was just adding additional steps to decompress the silent installer... I may go back to that now

I'm going to try to set the switches with SFXMaker and after that integrate the silent installs with WinKit without adding the switches again.

EDIT

This method is working perfectly!

I've just fixed an issue which may have caused these issues

[tsjippy]

great!

When can we expect the update, with this fix included?

[compstuff]

He's probably quite busy with school and trying to figure out some bugs before releasing a new version... we all just have to be patient

great!

[compstuff]

Does anyone have an earlier version available that works with the RunOnceEx and Silent Installers? I think it would be the early 12 or pre-12 release.

Ive got 140-6,7,9,10,12, if that is what you mean

Here you can find 140-12

Any chance you could send me a PM with a link to v10? I think that one worked fine.

[compstuff]

Thank you... there were actually a number of version 12's release and that one is the same I have and fails with my SFX and Silent Installers so I need an earlier vesion

Here you can find 140-12

I finally got an AOI x86 + x64 that's working except that it doesn't pass the /aif switch to ricktendo64's DotNet installer. (All the other silent installs work fine.) Can I fix that without rebuilding the whole .wim image.

[alfreire]

Try /y command...

Regards... ;-)

For me, Runonce in build 16 (which is no longer live) is just skipped at first logon, and thus NONE of the 20 silent installers (including some msu's) isn't installed on a live system.

Which was the working build (working Runonce) again?

[compstuff]

I can confirm this... it doesn't work at all... I am about to try v10 right now and will let you know if that works

EDIT: I didn't try this on a live system just and offline image... sorry for the mis-understanding

EDIT: offline image integration v10 worked (I had 1 error out of 23 so it is probably my mistake) v12, v15 and v16 did not work for me

EDIT 2: the one error was due to an update by Microsoft that deprecated the one I was using... v10 works
