DDM, automated installation

Hey all,

So rather than manual updating or installing the DDM (Dell Display Manager), I'd like to automate it. However as of yet the installation parameters are unknown to me. What parameters are available for this monitor tool when installing/uninstalling the software? The very least it would be helpful to know the silent install option.

Thanks

Try

ddmsetup.exe /silent

and/or

ddmsetup.exe /verysilent

And the parameter "/suppressmsgboxes" to silent handle any errors or warnings or confirmations.

Works like a charm Cheers!

I guess the /silent option was to be guessed, but how did you get the info about /suppressmsgboxes? is that some general kind of switch for .exe setups?

These switches are common to installers built using the Inno Setup toolkit.
