using silent setup with Microsoft Custom Installation Wizard

A

Alan Truism

I created a custom installation MST script to deploy Outlook 2003
within my company.

So far I've been using executing it manually having users click on a
batch file but I'd like to deploy it through the login script. I want
to do a silent setup, or at the very least disable the cancel option to
keep users from stopping the installation.


The command line I'm using to execute the install goes like this:

setup.exe TRANSFORMS=\\SERVER\OUTLOOK2003\OUTLOOK-INSTALL.MST /qb-

Can I modify the switch at the end in order to prevent users from
cancelling the script?

Alan,


I am not sure if this will work with the setup.exe but if deployed using
msiexec.exe you would use the /qb! and the cancel button is not available.
Try it.

That didn't seem to work

however removing the "b-" from the end of the line did.
