Silent Switch on an AutoIT .exe

[Evergreen]

I have created an exe via AutoIT that basically copies some files and runs a .reg file. During the running of the .reg file two message boxes come up for which I use WinWaitActive and then pass an {enter}. I have created a "wrapper" to run the .exe as a domain admin. I would like to run the exe in silent mode so that the user will not se the two registry message boxes. Here is the runas line from my wrapper (DiskCleanUp.exe is the exe I created using AutoIT).

RunAsWait($szRunAsUser, $szRunAsDom, $szRunAsPass, 1, $szInstallFilesSource & 'DiskCleanUp.exe')

Thanks,

Evergreen

If you want to use Command lines, Autoit interprets that commands passed to it through the pre-defined $CMDLine array.

Switch StringUpper($CMDLine)
    Case "/DEBUG"
        MsgBox(0, "", "Debug Mode!")
    Case "/SILENT"
        Opt("TrayIconHide", 1)
    Case Else
        ConsoleWrite("What? & @CRLF)
EndSwitch

Little example.

The messages from the reg files are coming from regedit, not AutoIt. You have to modify the registry using Reg*() functions.

Or call

regedit /s somefile.reg

to import the file into the registry silently.

Thank you all.

I ended up going with

Run("regedit.exe /s DiskCleanUp.reg", $szLocalTempDir)

Thanks again,
