Cutepdf default. Sep 28, 2012  Well, there I was trying to figure out how to create a silent install script for CutePDF on our Windows 7 64bit PCs. After losing a few hairs trying to work out why it wasn’t working silently it was because setup was looking for a 32bit installation of ghostscript.

  2. Installshield Silent Installation

CutePDFSetup.exe /verysilent /sn='put SN here' /user='name here' /company='company here' For converter, you may download the converter off the URL below You may install it *before* installing CutePDF Pro. Run gplgs.exe /auto to install it silently.

I have been struggling for a week to come up with a way to uninstall CutePDF silently. Everything I tried did not work. there is no silent uninstall switch. No MSI. Repackers didn't work.

I had 30 machines I needed to remove it from. I was not going to walk to each machine and uninstall it. I Emailed CutePDF and they told me I could buy full version which has a silent uninstaller.


So for any of you struggling with the same issue I wrote a quick vbs script.

Cutepdf Pro Silent Installation


Set KillShell = WScript.CreateObject('WScript.Shell')

What Is Silent Installation

Set CuteShell = WScript.CreateObject('WScript.Shell')

KillShell.Run 'Taskkill /f /IM Setup64.exe'

WScript.Sleep 500

CuteShell.Run ''c:Program Files (x86)Acro SoftwareCutePDF WriterSetup64.exe' /uninstall', 9

WScript.Sleep 500

CuteShell.SendKeys '{ENTER}'

WScript.Sleep 500

Pro

CuteShell.SendKeys '{ENTER}'


This VBS script will start the uninstall, a dialog box will appear asking if you would like to uninstall. The script will hit the enter button for you. Users will see a pop up for a second but then after that, CutePDF is gone.

Installshield Silent Installation


I used PSEXEC to deploy this with the -i option for interactive to make sure it ran on the users desktop. It will not work if the screen is locked or if no user is logged on.Probably would be best used in a start up script.


Enjoy
