If you install WSA via a script with the EXE renamed to your keycode, the install is no longer silent. The scan window will appear.

 

The /silent switch doesn't seem to work, but I haven't looked at the documentation yet.
Hi explanoit

 

What results did you get, what OS did you test on, and what installer version did you use?

 

I tested on XP SP3 and 7, /silent worked for me but installed with no keycode, which is expected as I didnt enter the key= parameter.

When I renamed with the keycode it installed.

 

The only prompts I got were for UAC and in XP's "do you really want to run an .exe"

 

I havent tested these on the consumer product in a while, have the results changed?

Here's the command I've tried, run in an elevated batch file run by a local admin domain user on Windows 7SP1 x64 fully patched with no previous Webroot installation.

 

start "" /b /wait "%Remote%WebrootWebrootAVWebrootAV_8.0.4.17<key>.exe" /silent

start "" /b /wait "%Remote%WebrootWebrootAVWebrootAV_8.0.4.17<key>.exe" /key="<key>" /silent

 

I'll try it with the EXE not named to the key, see if that works. The first command installed silently on the 2013 series WSA.
