New installer in 6.12 breaks silent installs

Posts: 2 · kelderek 3 Dec 2014, 14:44

I have always pushed out FreeFileSync with a simple /S for silent installation, but it appears the installer has changed as that no longer works. It seems that you are using Inno setup so I have tried /SP- /verysilent /norestart but that fails as well. I have also created an inf with the /saveinf parameter and loaded it with the /loadinf parameter. When I log the installation I get the message "Failed to proceed to next wizard page; aborting" which I think is due to being unable to accept the EULA. Is there way to accept the EULA either with a command line parameter or in the settings.inf file?

Thanks! There has been a problem with the new Inno Setup installer. It's been fixed and I've just updated the release. "/silent" should work as expected now.

This has probably been asked before but does the /silent option not install the other optional software?

Still stands true?

Yes, there has been no change in behavior.
