I'm trying to integrate the ClassicPaint-1.1-setup.exe in to my image but so far I'm unsuccessful. I use other programs they offer, like there is OldClassicCalc-2.0 and ClassicStickyNotes and they all silently install fine with "/VERYSILENT /SUPPRESSMSGBOXES /NORESTART /SP-" (being Inno Setup installers). However this one doesn't seem to work. I made an *.inf file with /SAVEINF which created an *.inf file but no luck. I tried installing it on a machine manually but that wasn't successful either, I did notice the installer asks to open up settings to adjust App Aliases and then lets you continue.

I also tried it with /SUPPRESSMSGBOXES btw.

Maybe someone has an idea of what's wrong or how to do it?

Been there sorry - keep the new paint thos 323 mb install updated app in later builds with their AI build in+.
 
I don't think the installer (as packaged) really wants to run in unattended mode.

If you enable logging, it clearly states "Failed to proceed to next wizard page; aborting." No combination of /silent, /suppressmsgboxes, etc. makes it skip past this dialog page. Furthermore, the installer asks you to click on "Open Settings" to perform some tasks outside of the app.

Sergey claims in a recent post that "/verysilent /SP-" works.

Ah well, thanks for the replies. Decided just to go for the new Paint. Sometimes you just need to go with it I guess :-)
