no minimize or silent installation option

Post by joks »

Hello, I try to ensure that the program we use is always in the latest version.
Unfortunately, even though we use unattended installations the entire installation process is displayed on the user's screen and cannot be hidden or minimized.
I tried with powershell script -WindowStyle Hidden or with other known programs to hide and minimize programs like
NirCmd (https://www.nirsoft.net/utils/nircmd.html ) or Quiet.exe (https://www.joeware.net/freetools/tools/quiet/index.htm) but cobian just doesn't seem to respect minimize or hide windows durning instalation/update.
This is not a big mistake, but users complain that while updating the program a window suddenly appears which they cannot close or minimize. If there was an option to install silently in the background, it would simply be easier to perform updates.
PS: I manage updates from domain servers this is the easiest way to create a rule for installing the program for all computers in network so this option is very desirable for us.
