Silent Install and Upgrade

November 4, 2013 8:03 PM from

I have found another post that suggested using /s with the Start8.exe installer to silently install. This works but has the side effect of restarting the pc without asking when doing an upgrade from a previous version of Start8. Is there any other switch that will allow you to continue without a restart. Two common ones I have seen in other silent installers are /norestart and Reboot=Suppress, neither of which work currently with Start8. Also, is there a way to make sure ModernMix is not installed while doing a silent install.

Thanks.

The switch for a silent install of Start8 without a reboot is /noreboot. For any silent install, there should be no installation of any other Stardock software.
