Hello.

I want to use Zen to push out the client. I have setup an unattended.txt
file which works well and have a Zen app which will push it out. My
question is, how can I get the app to be hidden from the users? Even
though I set the Zen app to be hidden, the install still shows the screens
and the user could hit cancel during the install.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Leo Boucher

Leo,

Your question is posted every once is a while and there currently doesn't
seem to be reliable method to do this.
User education and various "reinforcement" strategies tend to be most
effective. :>

Get AUTOIT from http://www.hiddensoft.com

It's free and you could easily write a 5 line script to lock the mouse
keyboard during the client install.
