Not feeling very smart - Newbie


Recommended Posts

Been searching the forum for a basic Adobe Reader install script and everything is advanced and confusing to me. :blink:

So far I have successfully created a Firefox 3.6 script, but for Reader 9.3.3 I can't get it to recognize my VERY FIRST "!n". Maybe because it pops up a new window (instead of reusing the one it begins with)?

If someone might please offer me some guidance, I'd be real grateful. Here's what I have (too simple apparently):

;Run("AdbeRdr933_en_US.exe")

WinWaitActive("Adobe Reader 9.3.3 - Setup")

Send("{!n}")

Send("{ENTER}")

WinWaitActive("Adobe Reader 9.3.3 - Setup", "Setup Type")

Send("{ENTER}")

WinWaitActive("Adobe Reader 9.3.3 - Setup", "&Finish")

Send("{ENTER}")

Try using the Adobe Acrobat Reader MSI installer instead of the .exe you have downloaded (you can either download the .msi file, or extract it from your existing .exe)

Have a look here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/404/kb404146.html

Then use the WinActivate and Send that you have been trying to step through each screen, or use

ShellExecuteWait("AdbeRdr93.msi", "/passive /norestart")

to install showing only the progress bar or

ShellExecuteWait("AdbeRdr933.msi", /qn /norestart")

to do it completely silently.
