Silent install for flash 10, firefox 3.6.3 and ie 8

#1 Post by uhs.416 » 07 May 2010 12:12

first things first, i am new to creating batch files

i want to create a batch file to execute three exe files (flash 10, firefox 3.6.3 and ie 8) and have them run silently in the background with no restarting of the computer through the process.

i have gotten ie to run silent but have not managed to get others to do the same.

my code is below

@ echo off

start c:\updates\IE8.exe /quiet /passive /update-no

start c:\updates\firefox.exe

start c:\updates\flash10.exe

i have tried the /s switch with all three but it doesn't seem to work

Three setups at the same time? IMO not a good idea. You should use
start "" /wait ...

I'm not sure, but AFAIK you have to use the following switches:
-ms for Firefox and
/silent for Flash Player
