Stéphane,


If you extract the MSI file from the installation executable, you can use those settings:

msiexec /i "C:\Temp\MSI\PVX Plus Development Suite 2017.msi"  /quiet /qn /log C:\temp\msi.log TARGETDIR="C:\" INSTALLDIR="C:\WindX V13"

Wow, that's great.
Next question is : how do you extract the MSI from the executable ? Guess I need a copy of Installshield ?


TIA

Devon Austen:
Try

pxp1700-0000-W32.exe /s /x /b"C:\FolderInWhichMSIWillBeExtracted" /v"/qn"

this should extract the msi to the folder specified.
