Silent switche for setupdrv.exe, dongle driver application.
Hi,
My app is a dongle driver application, which runs setupdrv.exe through custom action and installs .inf files, it installs fine but at the end of the installation it gives a messg box that "Dongle drivers have been successfully installed", I have to supress this mssg box. I tried /S, /Q, /QB, /QN, /QB-!, /silent, -silent, -s, but nothing is working, not as a custom action parameter n not even msi parameter.
It's wiring me, pls help :(

That is a very specific installer and determining what type of installer it is without having is a crap shoot, and it appears you have hit the most common switches. I would suggest an Autoit script, as a last resort.
Autoit here: http://www.autoitscript.com/site/autoit/
Below is an example of what you need in your autoit script. Replace "Install Successful" with the title of the dialog box your seeing after your drivers install.
Run("setupdrv.exe")
WinWaitActive("Install Successful")
Send("{ENTER}")

Extract the drivers and use difxapp
to install the driver.
There is a difxapp merge module for Wise that works like a charm. Dunno if there is one for Admin Studio aswell.

Haven't done too much driver installs in adminstudio myself, but you can make a component install drivers in adminstudio. Has worked well for me. - Ifan 12 years ago

You could extract the inf files, disable the custom action and install the drivers in a better way. Unless the setupdrv.exe does alot of other funky stuff.
