Hiding installer

[Nanaki]

Hi, I'm new to this languge, but it's awesome

Anyway, I currently have a MSI installer which I run with the /QR command. In the middle an error pops up which I ignore with autoit. Now, is it possible to hide the installer with this script? I can't seem to get it tow ork.

run or runas with @SW_HIDE option

See help for details.

Doesn't work cause the initial installer (which is ironically hidden by default) launches a second instance.

Anyway, my code just won't work. It hates me.

I have a SETUP.EXE which launches a .MSI with the title "Windows installer". After some while that title changes to "Program". Later an error appears, which I was able to ignore. But nothing is invisible. here's my code:

Run("SETUP.EXE /QB")

WinWaitActive("Windows Installer")
ControlHide("Windows Installer")

WinWaitActive("Program")
ControlHide("Program")

WinWaitActive("Program Fault", "Error")
Send("!N")

WinWaitClose("Program")

Any ideas? I searched. :/

Hi,

Try WinSetState instead of ControlHide ?
