Hey Rick. thanks for the quick response but unfortunately, I am still getting the same error.
So far I have tried this, as per your instructions:
"C:\\Paint_.Net_v2.5_Beta2.exe" /auto "TARGETDIR=%PROGRAMFILES%\Desktop Publishing\Paint.Net"
And this because I thought it may have an issue with the period in the path:
"C:\\Paint_.Net_v2.5_Beta2.exe" /auto "TARGETDIR=%PROGRAMFILES%\Desktop Publishing\PaintDotNet"
And these to rule out the %PROGRAMFILES% variable:"
C:\\Paint_.Net_v2.5_Beta2.exe" /auto "TARGETDIR=C:\Program Files\Desktop Publishing\Paint.Net"
"C:\\Paint_.Net_v2.5_Beta2.exe" /auto "TARGETDIR=C:\Program Files\Desktop Publishing\PaintDotNet"
And these to see if it required a slash after the path:
"C:\\Paint_.Net_v2.5_Beta2.exe" /auto "TARGETDIR=C:\Program Files\Desktop Publishing\Paint.Net\"
"C:\\Paint_.Net_v2.5_Beta2.exe" /auto "TARGETDIR=C:\Program Files\Desktop Publishing\PaintDotNet\"
I even made sure that the folder already existed but got the same error.
I also tried this because I thought that the fact that there was a space in the path may have something to do with it:
"C:\\Paint_.Net_v2.5_Beta2.exe" /auto "TARGETDIR=\"%PROGRAMFILES%\Deskto~1\PaintDotNet"
"C:\\Paint_.Net_v2.5_Beta2.exe" /auto "TARGETDIR=C:\PROGRA~1\Deskto~1\PaintDotNet"
And this because I thought that I may have to escape the quotes on the path under TARGETDIR to accept the space:
"C:\\Paint_.Net_v2.5_Beta2.exe" /auto "TARGETDIR=\"%PROGRAMFILES%\Desktop Publishing\PaintDotNet\""
What is the software that you are now using to load the installer?
Is there any chance I could get a standalone installer from you?
