Install UVNC in a Batch file #2

Post by docfxit »

In a .bat file how can I tell the install to install the software into a custom folder?

C:\Programs\Ultravnc

Thank you,

sc create %your_service_name_uvnc% type= own start= auto error= ignore binpath= "C:\your_path\your_folder\winvnc_official_name_if_not_renamed.exe -service"
sc Description %your_service_name_uvnc% "Provides ultravnc desktop service or your description string"
sc start %your_service_name_uvnc%

you need an elevated prompt

Thank you for the reply...

I'm not trying to create "Single Click". I'm trying to install Ultra VNC.

Thank you,

I am using a .bat file to install UVNC.

This is the cmd line I am using:

Code: Select all

"VNC UltraVNC_1_4_06_X64_Setup.exe" /verysilent /loadinf=C:\Dnload\9xAddons\VNCsetup.inf" /NORESTART
When I use the "/verysilent" or the "/silent" switch it ignores the install folder defined in VNCsetup.inf

Code: Select all

[Setup]
Lang=en
Dir=C:\Programs\UltraVNC
Group=UltraVNC
NoIcons=0
Components=server,server\driver,viewer,dsm
Tasks=installservice,cleanreg
PropertiesFile=C:\Dnload\9xAddons\VNCsetup.reg
SetupType=full
Is there a way to get "/verysilent" to use the Dir in the inf file?

I was told by someone that there is a cmd line option called /Dir=
It's not documented within the UVNC cmd line documentation.
I found that does make the install go into a custom folder.
This is my cmd line:

Code: Select all

 "VNC UltraVNC_1_4_06_X64_Setup.exe" /verysilent /loadinf="C:\Dnload\9xAddons\VNCsetup.inf" /NORESTART /DIR=C:\Programs\UltraVNC

Al tittle trick run to create the inf file
UltraVNC_1_4_00_X64_Setup.exe /SAVEINF="mysettings.inf"

This create the inf file based on your custom settings.

Later you can use this as input
