InstallAware

Hello,

We use the Windows Installer "/quiet" switch to install silently:

How would we know that it was run with "/quiet"?

I know, we can get and process variables in the code if we use CMDLINE, but I wouldn't want to pass another variable like that if the switch is present. As far as I understand, the predefined variable SILENT could be used if we run it like
and does not help in this case.

Thanks,
Kostya

You don't need to worry about manually checking for that command line parameter.

When your MSI is launched silently, your setup will automatically receive the /s command line parameter from the MSI.

If this is not what you are seeing, please describe your workflow in detail.

John, you are right, I see that the SILENT variable works perfectly in the case described. Sorry, apparently I didn't check it correctly first here. Thanks!
