.bat files
 |
Hey guys,
Could someone show me how to write a batch file to install software? I just need something very basic that, when run, will auto install the software.
I know it isn't that hard, but I don't know how.
thanks!

It is practically impossible to teach good programming style to students that have had prior exposure to Basic; as potential programmers they are mentally mutilated beyond hope of regeneration.

Why not post this in the programmers forum? I know you know this as you've been around the site for awhile.
well, considering it's more pertaining to DOS....

installing windows software with a .bat? you would need to find the actual setup switches to make it a silent install, and those are product specific

Why not you use Autorun.inf (Setup Information) it will Auto Execute the Setup.exe.

For more Configuration also can setup a .ini file for it.

I have a .ini file setup that does a complete installation with no user intervention. I need a way to run the link through a script though.

Also you can link .bat (MS-DOS Batch Script) through Autorun.inf File.
