Command Line

This package has a setup.exe that just runs the msi's with mst's. if you try to run it without the setup you get an error. There are multiple portions to this. I excluded the update feature by just not installing that MSI.

To get around this:

msiexec /i RCP_CORE_33\RCPCORE.msi TRANSFORMS="RCP_CORE_33\1033.mst" /passive
msiexec /i RCP_TOOLS_33\Tools.msi TRANSFORMS="RCP_TOOLS_33\1033.mst" /passive
msiexec /i RCP_COPY_33\Copy.msi TRANSFORMS="RCP_COPY_33\1033.mst" /passive
msiexec /i RCP_BDAV_34\BDAV.msi TRANSFORMS="RCP_BDAV_34\1033.mst" /passive
msiexec /i EXPRESSLABELER_30\LABELER.msi TRANSFORMS="EXPRESSLABELER_30\1033.mst" /passive
msiexec /i RCP_AUDIO_33\AUDIO.msi TRANSFORMS="RCP_AUDIO_33\1033.mst" /passive
msiexec /i RCP_DATA_33\BMPLE.msi TRANSFORMS="RCP_DATA_33\1033.mst" /passive
rem ****msiexec /i D2D32_90\DrgToDsc.MSI TRANSFORMS="D2D32_90\1033.mst" /passive /norestart

(we do not use the drag to disk) so I remed out the drag to disk portion)

This package has a setup.exe that just runs the msi's with mst's. If you try to run it without the setup.exe you get an error. To call the primary MSI pass the INSTALLERDIR=1 property. You can launch the primary MSI adding the additional commands at your preference: "D:\Roxio Creator 9.1 LE.msi" INSTALLERDIR=1 REBOOT=REALLYSUPPRESS

Note

If you want to supress the registration box at first startup this is the way:

When you start Roxio first time it will write this to the registry

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Sonic\Registration\Roxio Central Core 3.0]
"RemindForNLaunches"=dword:00000005
"RemindAfter"=dword:00000003
"ShowRegistration"=dword:00000001 (If this stand to 00000000 no registration will come).
"ReminderCount"=dword:00000002
"Last"=dword:46dbe68a

You will have to make a reg file (OR script) that write these values right after the installation to the registry.

Command Line

The above works beautifully, but beware. You should edit the individual .MST files to make sure they are set to "ReallySuppress" the reboot. That way, if one of the individual packages does need to reboot, it won't do it in the middle of your install process (make sure you force a reboot at the end of your install to cover the possibility)

Command Line

I had to slightly modify the commands above as the folder names changed on the disc I used (was released from Dell), plus I used "/qb" to show a progress bar. You can use "/qn" for no progress bar. I ended up using a VBS script that disables registration for the Default User so that it is applied to any user that logs in. The VBS script runs the batch script. You will also need reg.exe which you can find with Google relatively easy.

install.vbs:
------------

on error resume next
Dim WshShell, bKey
Dim regtool,regparams,regpath
Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
regtool = "reg.exe"
regparams = "load HKEY_USERS\DEFAULTUSERPROFILE"
regpath = """c:\documents and settings\default user\ntuser.dat"""

' Install components
WshShell.Run "run_install.bat", 1, true

' Load default user registry hive
WshShell.Run regtool & " " & regparams & " " & regpath, 1, true

' Disable registration
WshShell.RegWrite "HKEY_USERS\DEFAULTUSERPROFILE\Software\Sonic\Registration\Roxio Central Core 3.0\ShowRegistration", 0, "REG_DWORD"

' Unload default user registry hive
WshShell.Run "reg.exe unload HKEY_USERS\DEFAULTUSERPROFILE", 1, true

run_install.bat:
----------------

REM MSIEXEC.EXE /qb REBOOT=Suppress /I "D2D32_90\DrgToDsc.msi" TRANSFORMS="D2D32_90\1033.mst" DESKTOPICON=never QUICKLAUNCHICON=never USERNAME="YourName" COMPANYNAME="YourCompany"

Here's my script adding reboot=suppress, no desktop icon, no quicklaunch, add username and company name. We don't install the Drag-to-Disk or auto updater.

Command Line

If you use kix script here is the lines that will get rid of the Registration form. This also updates the default user hive so new users will not get the form as well.

WRITEVALUE ("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Sonic\Registration\Roxio Easy Media Creator 9", "ShowRegistration", "00000000", "REG_DWORD")
shell 'reg load HKU\ntuser "C:\Documents and Settings\Default User\ntuser.dat"'
shell 'reg add "HKU\ntuser\Software\Sonic\Registration\Roxio Easy Media Creator 9" /v ShowRegistration /t REG_DWORD /d 00000000 /f'
shell 'reg unload HKU\ntuser'
