InstallDirChanger tries to adhere getopt-standards to provide easy command line usage.

Usage: Install Dir Changer.exe [OPTION] [...]

Options:
   -?, --help                     Displays help and exits 
   -a STRING, --change32=STRING   Change the registry value of the 32-bit 
                                  default installation path 
   -b STRING, --change64=STRING   Change the registry value of the 64-bit 
                                  default installation path 
   -q, --quiet                    Starts the software without user interface. 
                                  Software will quit when all arg-specified 
                                  commands are executed. This is helpful for 
                                  servers and scripts. 
   --version                      Print version and exits

InstallDirChanger is a window application and thus doesn't provide console output via cmd. The output can be accessed when tunneled into a file like this:

C:\path\to\InstallDirChanger.exe > C:\path\to\output.txt

The only thing you'll ever get as an output is "Error: You have no administration priviledges". The program keeps completely quiet when everything runs well.

Example usages:

C:\path\to\InstallDirChanger.exe

Opens InstallDirChanger with default settings

C:\path\to\InstallDirChanger.exe --change64="D:\my\path"

Changes the 64-bit path to "D:\my\path" and then opens the user interface in the regular way

C:\path\to\InstallDirChanger.exe --quiet --change64="D:\my\path"

Changes the 64-bit path to "D:\my\path" and then exit

C:\path\to\InstallDirChanger.exe -qa D:\my\path (x32)\ -b D:\my\path (x64)\

Changes the 32-bit path to "D:\my\path (x32)\" and the 64-bit path to "D:\my\path (x64)\" and then exit
