My investigations showed you can't rely on the .exe file to do the installation automatically. Rather you have to install the device driver "by hand". If you are still interested, let me know, and I can dig up references and/or my batch file to do this.

Re: [wpkg-users] Truecrypt silent install
Retry with formatting fixed. "%SOFTWARE%\unattended\shortcut.pl" comes with unattended (if that wasn't obvious).

I can see how to turn off line wrapping, except for when it feels like displaying the option to do so. Anyway you will need to remove some of the line breaks within the cmd files I posted, or it won't work.

Re: [wpkg-users] Truecrypt silent install
Hi David David N wrote: > I am very interested for the silent install. I've tried but haven't > had any luck. Recently I've developed a small script too in order to deploy TrueCrypt 6.2a silently. Please find attached the set of scripts including a WPKG package sample. The main issue of TrueCrypt is that you need to add the uninstall section by hand. If you don't do so then TrueCrypt enforces itself to be run with administrator privileges and triggering an UAC prompt on Windows Vista/7. I have no clue why it checks for the uninstall key instead checking if the required service is available. Probably a bug. Apart of that you need to add a TrueCrypt service which allows non-administrator users to mount drives. The service is added by the script as well. The script also includes code to create some start menu shortcuts using "shortcut.exe". It currently supports two languages: EN, DE. Feel free to extend. The script also fully supports x86 and x64 Windows. How to use: - Download TrueCrypt installer - Run installer and select to extract the files - Right click the "TrueCrypt" sub-directory just created - Select 7-Zip -> Add to Archive... (requires 7-Zip to be installed) - Create an SFX archive: "TrueCrypt.exe" That's it. For future versions you might have to adapt the VERSION variable within the "unattended.cmd" script. br, Rainer TrueCrypt v.6.2a.7z Description: Binary data - wpkg-users mailing list archives >> http://lists.wpkg.org/pipermail/wpkg-users/ ___ wpkg-users mailing list wpkg-users@lists.wpkg.org http://lists.wpkg.org/mailman/listinfo/wpkg-users
