Q. How can I install EmEditor without displaying dialog boxes?

During normal installation, dialog boxes will be displayed, and a user must click the "Next" button or set options. However, when you install EmEditor into multiple computers in corporate or group environments, you might want to use a batch or scripting file to automate the installation. EmEditor uses Windows Installer for installation, and the "quiet" installation is possible.

For instance, if the EmEditor installation file is emed32_10.0.1.exe, running the following command:

emed32_10.0.1 /exenoui /q

will install EmEditor with default settings without displaying any dialog boxes. If you wish to change the default settings, you can use following options:

REGKEY=xxxxxx enters a registration key.
REGNAME=name enters the name of licensee.

For instance, if you wish to install EmEditor specifying a registration key and the name of licensee, run:

emed32_10.0.1 /exenoui /q REGKEY=xxxxx REGNAME=name

There are many options for Windows Installer. For details, run:

msiexec /?

to display the list of available commands.
