Changing /? /help messagebox text?

Tue Nov 09, 2021 9:37 am

Hello,

I was wondering if it would be possible to edit the data being used in the /? or /help parameter messagebox. We have added a few of our own parameters with visual basic script but we would like to add them to the messagebox data. If the data can't be changed is there a way to override the /? or /help parameter?

Thanks in advance.

Hello Jordy,

Do you mean the messagebox that appears when you run "msiexec /?"?

If that is the case, I'm afraid it might not be possible to alter it.

Yes indeed, I was talking about that command. I suspected that it wouldn't work but thank you for the answer.
