How do 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 emed64_20.9.0.msi, running the following command:

msiexec /i "(...path...)emed64_20.9.0.msi" /passive MSIINSTALLPERUSER=1

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

`MSIINSTALLPERUSER=1`	Specifies a per-user install for the current user.
`NOCHECKUPDATES=1`	disables checking new versions of EmEditor periodically via the Internet.
`NOCONTEXTMENU=1`	disables adding a shortcut to the Context Menu on Explorer.
`DESKTOP=1`	enables adding a shortcut to the Desktop.
`NOIEEDITOR=1`	disables adding EmEditor to Internet Explorer HTML editor list.
`NOIEVIEW=1`	disables View Source by EmEditor on Internet Explorer.
`NOPATH=1`	disables adding the path to EmEditor to the PATH environment variable.
`NOSHORTCUT=1`	disables adding a shortcut to the Program menu.
`NOSKIP=1`	does not skip installer screens even when upgrading.
`NOTRAYICON=1`	disables the tray icon.
`NOTXT=1`	disables the association of text files.
`REGNAME="name"`	enters the name of licensee.
`REGKEY=xxxxxx`	enters a registration key.

For instance, if you wish to install EmEditor only for the current user specifying a registration key and the name of licensee, run the following command:

msiexec /i "emed64_20.9.0.msi" /q MSIINSTALLPERUSER=1 REGKEY=xxxxx REGNAME="John Doe"

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

msiexec /?
