Hi

msiexec.exe /i WUAU22.msi /q REBOOT=Suppress

Windows Installer Command Line Options
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/msi/setup/command_line_options.asp

I usually use this to get a unattended install with a progress bar
/qb-

If you have Windows Installer 2.0 installed, you can remove the Cancel button
by adding a !, like this:
/qb-!

A completely silent uninstallation (no UI at all, no progress bar etc.):
/q as well as /qn


From a vbscript:

Set oShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")

sMsiPath = "L:\shared apps\WUAU22.msi"
oShell.Run "msiexec.exe /i """ & sMsiPath & """ /q REBOOT=Suppress", 1, True
