Alive Installer and Uninstaller Command Line Parameters
Posted: Wed Dec 20, 2023 3:57 am
The Alive uninstall program is named unins000.exe and can be found in the same folder where Alive is installed (by default, its C:\Program Files (x86)\Alive).
Both the Alive setup and uninstall programs accept the following command line parameters:
/VERYSILENT
/SUPPRESSMSGBOXES
/LOG
/LOG="filename"
/NORESTART
Use both the /VERYSILENT and /SUPPRESSMSGBOXES commands if you don't want the setup to ask for any user interaction at all.
The /LOG command causes the setup to create a log file in the user's TEMP directory detailing file installation. This can be a helpful debugging aid (especially when the /VERYSILENT command is used). The log file is created with a unique name based on the current date.
The /LOG="filename" command is the same as the /LOG command, except it allows you to specify a fixed path/filename to use for the log file, for example /LOG="%TEMP%\Alive Setup Log.txt". If a file with the specified name already exists it will be overwritten.
The /NORESTART command prevents the setup from restarting the system following a successful installation.
In addition to the commands listed above, the Alive setup program also supports the following command line parameters:
/DIR="x:\dirname"
Overrides the default directory name displayed on the Select Destination Location wizard page. A fully qualified pathname must be specified.
/RESTARTEXITCODE=exit code
Specifies a custom exit code that the setup is to return when the system needs to be restarted following a successful installation (by default, 0 is returned in this case).
