Unattended jZip Installation:
In this document the installer executable is referred to as jZipV1.exe. Actual name may vary.
How to Execute?
To silently install jZip with default configuration, execute the installer with /S command line argument: C:\> jZipV1.exe /S
To customize configuration, create a configuration file (in our example named “conf.txt”), and execute the installer with /S and /M=conf.txt command line arguments: C:\> jZipV1.exe /S /M=conf.txt
Configuration File:
Simple text file, containing zero or more configuration options as key-value pairs, each in a new line:
- Key and value are separated by ‘=’ (without the quotes).
For example: DEFAULT_FOLDER=C:\Program Files\jZip
- Do not enclose values with quotes.
- Unspecified options will be treated as default.
###### Configuration File Options: ######
Name: DEFAULT_FOLDER
Value:<Path>
Default:<Program Files>\jZip
Description: Destination folder’s path
Name:CREATE_SHORTCUT
Value:Yes/No
Default:Yes
Description: Whether or not to create a desktop shortcut to jZip client.
Name:ENABLE_SHELL_EXTENSIONS
Value:Yes/No
Default:Yes
Description: Whether or not to enable shell extensions.
Name:ASSOCIATE_FILETYPES
Value:Yes/No
Default:Yes
Description: Whether or not to associate archive file-types to jZip.
#####################
Example configuration file content:
DEFAULT_FOLDER=D:\Util Installations\jZip
CREATE_SHORTCUT=No
Using these configurations will result in jZip being extracted to D:\Util Installations\jZip, no desktop shortcut created, and shell extension enabled by default.
