Hi guys I am trying to install the following application silently Office 2010 starter edition.

I have tried various power shell commands, But I cannot get the application to run silently I am not sure of the correct switches.

Have you tried PS Exec?

This is a script currently working on

# This starts the office install which doesnt need to be a part of the other command
Start-Process -FilePath "C:\Office"

# This picks how long the script will wait before starting to install Ninite
timeout 5

# This starts Ninite and waits for it to be closed to carry on the script
$p = New-Object System.Diagnostics.Process
$pinfo = New-Object System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo("C:\Ninite.exe","");
$p.StartInfo = $pinfo;
$p.Start();
$p.WaitForExit();
Write-Host "end of ps1" + (Get-Date).DateTime

Remove-Item c:\Ninite.exe
# This Restarts the machine when the script is finished



The script launches during windows startup installs ninite apps and office and then removes files and reboots once install is complete

+1 for PSExec!

Got some progress guys, The current script kicks in Once Windows has been installed, It automatically installs Office Starter and Ninite applications and then cleans up the install files once installation is complete.

Combination of a batch script, Powershell and AutoIT
