TQLD Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 We're trying to deploy the latest version of paint.net, but it doesn't work with the command line switches given in the unattended install documentation. We've extracted the MSIs and tried using the 32bit msi and if we put AUTO in the switches, the 'how to use MSIEXEC command line' help window pops up, and without auto it displays the install GUI. Below is the command line script we are trying to use. msiexec /i PaintDotNet.msi /AUTO TARGETDIR="%PROGRAMFILES%\Paint.NET" CHECKFORUPDATES=0 CHECKFORBETAS=0 JPGPNGBMPEDITOR=1 TGAEDITOR=1 DESKTOPSHORTCUT=1 PROGRAMSGROUP="Paint.NET" That is right out of the unattended documentation, so WTF is going on?

pyrochild Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 Are you installing on a 32-bit or 64-bit OS? Quote ambigram signature by Kemaru [i write plugins and stuff] If you like a post, upvote it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Brewster Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 /auto is a command-line switch for the installer, not the MSI. If you are using the MSI, then you are effectively already using /auto. In general, you should only use the MSI if you are using AD/GPO deployment. Otherwise, it is much simpler to just run the installer with /auto.
