Hi Folks,

Looking for some assistance in creating a script to install multiple applications, from mutliple drives, without invoking or having to change User Access Control settings.

I have tried to butcher a number of different scripts but I don't seem to understand them well enough to get it work.

So my rather retarded batch file simply reads like follows :

"\\drivex\e$\SoftwarePackages\Silverlight\Silverlight_x64.exe" /q /doNotRequireDRMPrompt /noupdate
"\\drivex\e$\SoftwarePackages\Lotus Notes\Notes7.msi" /quiet
"\\drivey\disks\DRS Software Applications\Office 2013\SW_DVD5_Office_2013w_SP1_W32_English_MLF_X19-34744\setup.exe"
"\\drivexy\e$\SoftwarePackages\Lync 2013\setup.exe"
timeout /T 180
"\\drivef\disks\DRS Software Applications\Acrobat Reader\Adobe Reader V11.0.10\AdbeRdr11010_en_US.exe"
"\\drivef\disks\DRS Software Applications\DRS Software Applications\Aobe Flash Player\install_flash_player_17_active_x.exe"
"\\drivexf\disks\DRS Software Applications\Citrix\Citrix Version 11.0\Xen App\Hosted Client\XenAppHosted.msi"


I have tried to use code such as https://sites.google.com/site/eneerge/scripts/batchgotadmin and http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1894967/how-to-request-administrator-access-inside-a-batch-file

Any suggestions? They are not into deploying using SCCM and the like here

Ok, nevermind, I have made a pretty simple process of firing up CMD in admin mode, then running a batch file which creates a task to run my install batch file with the highest available rights, no request for UAC except when launching CMD at the start, then deletes the task at the end. its messy, but works.

Surely just deploy it via GPO and running the script at SYSTEM is the easiest method here? That stops the computer prompting for UAC.

All you need to do is give Domain Computers read access to the shares you need to install from

Push silver light out with wsus, Adobe apps you ca get msis for, office has its own startup script you ca apply using gpo (modify the read permissions on the batch file so only computers that are members of the group can read the file so you can target accurately). Push msis out by group policy

Silver Light?.. SILVER BLOODY LIGHT... That's like suggesting that someone fills their car with 4-Star!
