Solve : CMD batch help needed?

Answer»

Im looking for someone who knows how to write a cmd script that will allow me to install 3 peices of SOFTWARE at the same time by just running a batch script

Saves time having to locate the files on my network and install them 1 by 1, considering i have to install it for 70 users..

Can anyone help me?

Thanks -

Have you read any articles like the ONE below?

There are special requirements for MS Office. Are you planning to install it? If not, what kind of software it and did the vendor tell you how to do remote installation over a network?
I have 3 pieces of software for my users than need to be updated/installed. I cant roll out the new software via group policy so i just wanted a batch script that i can access on my network which will run all 3 installers at the sametime making life easierQuote from: leaver441 on December 28, 2012, 02:40:09 PM

Do you want them to install silently? What kind of packages are they? EXE, MSI, ZIP, etc....?
If you have 70 users, then group policy is probably a better idea anyway.

You still haven't answered any of this.

You can put the full path to the file on each line of a .bat file and it will open all of them. But, if you want to install silently or extract zip packages (we still don't know what the packages are as you haven't told US), it gets a bit more complicated.

This is pointless. On a related note, what happened to the report to moderator/report abuse button?Quote from: TechnoGeek on December 28, 2012, 05:21:37 PM
