Re: Updater Problem

Hello,
it opens the application on the screen.
Could you please give me some more details here?

By application, do you mean your installation package UI appears?

Best regards,

Re: Updater Problem

Yes, the updater runs silently, but the user interface is visible when the update process begins. When using the /passive command line option, the process progresses automatically, but it is still visible to the user. We want the update process to run completely without being visible at all.

Re: Updater Problem

Hello,

From what I can see in the INI file, the MSI is meant to be run with the /qn parameter, which means completely silent.

It's quite strange that the UI still appears in that case.

If possible, could you please forward me the following resources:

- a copy of the AIP file

- a copy of the Updates Configuration File project

- a download link for v1 of your product (so I can install it and then run the updater)

by email at support at advancedinstaller dot com so I can test and further investigate this?

Best regards,
