Hello,

I'm writing code for silent installation of installer "EcoStruxure Power Design" app:

direct link for installer:

...and have issue with it, because there is an extra page for Country selection. This is not the same as Language selection (/Lang switch) :

Lang:
2022-05-24_12-12-11.png

Country:
2022-05-24_12-13-18.png

Its this page can be somehow skipped, or automatically select?

I already tried to create inf file where body is:

[Setup]
Lang=English
Dir=C:\Program Files (x86)\Schneider Electric\EcoStruxurePowerDesign_E
Group=(Default)
NoIcons=0
Tasks=


and I tried to run it with this params:

C:\PowerD\ecostruxure_power_design_e.exe /SILENT /SP- /SUPPRESSMSGBOXES /LOADINF="C:\PowerD\Install.inf" 

also already tried many other combination commands from help:

Can anybody have any clue how to create silent installation for this software created with innosetup?

You need to request the original creator of the installer to support silent installation.

I agree with Eivind Bakkestuen.

If you execute original installer with command-line parameters, for example:
ecostruxure_power_design_e.exe" /log=ecostruxure_power_design_e.txt /silent

If you look in the log-file, you will see the "Got EAbort exception."
Before it's written: "Failed to proceed to next wizard page; aborting."

So, it means that it checks if anything if chosen in the "country page". But they did not add any command line parameter to change it.

To be sure I also checked the "CompiledCode", if anything is hidden there, but I can't found anything more that that:

So, you can extract original installer and include extracted files in your installer, or you can ask them to add command-line parameter to change it (as Eivind Bakkestuen wrote). Anyway, you can repack their installer, but you will lost original certificate...
