Hi.
I am attempting to create a silent install of flash player using Kaseya. I saw the documentation regarding silent installs and configured that into the script that i am using. I have built in the uninstall exe as well to perform a silent uninstall. That part actually appears to work fine, and it did remove the current flash version. The actual script claims that it has success, but flash was not installed. I also noticed that the install file removes itself, so it would appear that it did run. When i go to add remove programs though, no flash is showing up. am i using the switch properly? --
\install_flashplayer11x32ax_gtbd_chrd_dn_aih.exe -install
That is how i call for it with my script. Am i correct?
I will paste the script below. I will also mention that the scrip is much simpler in appearance in Kaseya. The first part is a SS from Kaseya, the second is the exported script.
