Is it possible to do a silent install without user interaction?

    Yes and no:
    - I don't know if InnoSetup can do it, it'll be investigated
    - yes, but I need to create an .msi package, that I don't know how to do it
    - yes, from now, you only need to:
    a) install a new copy on a test machine
    b) copy all the %PROGRAM_DIR%/hylapex to the new machine
    d) copy all the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE to the new machine
    e) enjoy!

    Ok, seems to be easy...
    I guess InnoSetup can do it, but the /SILENT and /VERYSILENT commands doesn't work.

    Is there a chance to install the printer settings silently?

    Inno setup can't do it directly by the command line :( See: http://www.jrsoftware.org/isfaq.php#silent
    So I have to create (another) package to to it or create a new one with the .msi technology.

    For install the print, I have to install:
    - redmon
    - port, if not exists
    - printer if the port was installed

    I just see that redmon has a "/silent" switch, so I can use it for make the other passes.

    The unique problem is that now I have no time to do it, but the good thing is that it is possible to make your request. :)
    In the future I'll do it ( or if someone want to do it and submit a patch, I'll include it in the next release! ).

    I found the point in the Source to install the Printer. I will try to do this with a vbs Script.
