Command-Line Switches for Self-Installing Microsoft Files

The Adobe Reader Download Center at always offers the most recent full installer of Adobe Reader, which is currently Adobe Reader 9.3. After installation, the Adobe Reader Updater will automatically check and offer the latest patches to keep end-users up-to-date (as of today, the latest patch is Adobe Reader 9.3.3). Acrobat Reader 9.2 Change Log Adobe Reader and Acrobat 9.2 software address a number of customer workflow issues and security vulnerabilities while providing more stability. Acrobat Reader 9.2 Screenshots. Downloading Adobe Acrobat Reader is a trouble too now because the new functionality of Adobe first downloads the Adobe Download Manager (ADM) and then install the desired product of Adobe through it. I hate installing useless applications on my system, so I decided to look for the offline standalone installer for Adobe Acrobat Reader 9.

This is a list of common command-line switches you can use when implementing aself-installing update. You can use these switches with downloadable self-installingupdate files for Windows 95, Windows 98, and Internet Explorer. These switches do not workwith all update files. If a switch does not work, the functionality is necessary for thatpackage. (Taken from article Q197147 in the Microsoft Knowledge Base).

/q:uUser Quiet mode - Shows some dialog boxes

Microsoft DLL Database

Microsoft has put together a database of all DLLs, EXEs etc. they distribute withvarious applications and packages. You can search the database in three ways:

  • By file name: Returns a list of all versions of the specified file, and in which programs it is included.
  • By product: Generates a list of all files that are installed with the program.
  • By product and file name: Returns the version of a particlular file that is distributed with the specified product.

The databse also provides additional information about selfregistration, CLSIDs,location of the file on the distribution media etc.

This comes in very handy if you're wondering where a file is coming from or who hadupdated it.

Prerequisite Installers

Microsoft Component Installer Software Development Kit

Microsoft Component Installer Software Development Kit helps you deliver the needed Windows component to your customer in order to run your application. The SDK provides support for installing MDAC, DirectX, .NET Framework, Windows Installer Runtime, in various versions and service packs. The resulting user experience is a small application they can download and run (or run from a CD). It provides the user with a simple wizard user interface that has details on the components that are needed and on the progress of the installation. The customer experience is already localized for over 20 Windows languages and will auto-detect the system locale at launch and will adjust its language as appropriate. After all prerequisites have been successfully installed the tool can execute a custom command (via ShellExecute), e.g. to launch your main setup or to navigate to a wen site. The tool handles reboots and also has a silent mode.

Related Information

Installing MDAC with a Windows Installer (MSI) Package

Currently there is no merge module (MSM file) available from Microsoft that could beused to incorporate the MDAC setup into an MSI installer. This means that you have to callmdac_typ.exe as a custom action to install MDAC on a Windows 9x or NT4 system. Microsoftis working on a merge module, but there is no information when it will be available. The Visual Studio Installer (VSI) includes a mdac.msm merge modulethat will check whether MDAC is installed. However, it will not install MDAC if required.It just pops up a message telling the user to run mdac_typ.exe manually.

Windows 2000 will include MDAC 2.1 or 2.5 as a system component, so if you have a Win2ksystem, you can safely assume that MDAC is there. The only supported way to install anupdated version of MDAC (whenever MDAC 3.0 rolls around) would be via Microsoft-createdservice packs.
