SetupVTS.exe silent install arguments?

Thomas Coleman

What are the arguments to silent install Virtual Table Server ?

I can manually click through the popups and prompts to install VTS, but I wish to silently install.

thanks!  -tom

      , did you checkout this old thread (see attached command at end as well).

    This links to the installation document of LRE2023 R1, with remarks about silent install.

    perfect!  setupVTS.exe /s /a /s   => success

    I'd also like to uninstall, by viewing the linked documents I tried this:

    set product_code=E3130646-51DE-4F8B-BA6C-10A9D0E7FEAA

    msiexec.exe /qb /x %product_code%
    However this failed with "This installation package could not be opened.  Verify that the package exists and that you can access it, or contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows Installer package."
    ------------------- details ---------------------
    4 - Uninstall silently
    Discover the product code of the installed application by running the following command line (this takes some time and replace
    <<<part of product name>>> parameter by LoadRunner for example and pay attention to external double quotes and internal single
    quotes):
    wmic product where "Name like '%<<<part of product name>>>%'" get Name, Version, IdentifyingNumber >C:\product_codes.txt
    Open product_codes.txt file and look for the identifying# of the product you wish to uninstall.
    Once you have the identifying#, you can run the following to uninstall the product silently:
    set product_code=<<<identifying#>>>
    -------- try it out -----------
    msiexec.exe /qb /x %product_code%
    wmic product where "Name like '%un%'" get Name, Version, IdentifyingNumber
