Unofficial Batch File & Program Switches Thread

[akaladis Veteran]

OK, this thread should ONLY contain batch files on how to silently install various applications, and a sample database entry for AutoPatcher's database file.

Do not:

1. Include any serial numbers, cracks and such

2. Reply commenting on a batch file (keep it clean!)

Here are some guidelines (a.k.a. this is how each post should look like):

Application Title

Database Entry:

[Entry]
Name=Application Title
Default=True
AutoExpand=True
Description=Application Description
UniqueID=APP_TITLE
Parent=APP_PARENT
Target=Batches\application.bat
TargetNoBackup=Batches\application_nobackup.bat
WebLink=http://

Target Batch File (Normal version):

Filename=Batches\application.bat

@echo off
"%AutoPatcherXP_Dir%\CustomProgFiles\application.exe" /a /b /c

Target Batch File (No-Backup version):

Filename=Batches\application_nobackup.bat

@echo off
"%AutoPatcherXP_Dir%\CustomProgFiles\application.exe" /d /e /f

Nice Topic...I'll make some batch files and post em right away !! :D

[FlishFun Veteran]

Hmmm... now I just need to get kelsenellenelvian to post the million ones I made for him on here (I deleted them after making them). Got some nice ones, all verified and working. I'll get him to post them.

Also, please only post ones that are 100% silent. That's very important. If you post ones that require people to click things and they don't know it, we can have some probs. Thanks! :)

Try this... I tested it on myself and it seems to work pretty good. :) It deletes everything from the temp internet files dir that's currently not in use. :)

DelTemp.bat

[Toxikk Veteran]

does it work for 98se? i will test. maybe i could just edit the dir in the bat file to point to the right dir in 98se.

Yeah, I made this for 2k/XP... I can make one for 98SE though if you want. :)

@Kelsenellenelvian: make sure you dont include your Nero registration if you give out any file... same applies to WinRAR and all the rest!

[morkuma]

i have 2 batches that i use all the time

one is just a backup of the configs for progs that i use the most, it takes the previously backed up files and dumps them in an old dir and the current files and puts them in the backup dir

then i have one for updating websites that uses ftp.exe (good ol command line) that just updates pages on the sites, ie. just replaces every file on the server with the ones on my hdd, in case i have made changes

everyone laughs at me for the latter, but hey, if it works, why screw with it?!?

[Kelsenellenelvian]

I added some more stuff=

MagicTweak 2.70

Windows Media Player 9 Bonus Pack

-----Windows Media Player 9 Winter Fun Pack

XP Winter ScreenSavers

-----XP Bliss ScreenSaver

Ummm I wouldn't know where to begin there are so many now.

If any one wants specific ones Flishfun figured out or the ones I did just post and I will post specific instructions ie. Modifying the Autopatcher.dat file, making the .bat file and getting the proper version of whichever proggy in.

also just added in=

Enable PrintScreen Key

Disable QOS

nVidia Coolbits

I am trying to figure out more proggys and thier switches so just ask and if I have figured it out I will tell you how, If not I am SURE Flishfun and Raptor can help you.

Flishfun did a great job with the ones he made for me and really taught me a great deal in automating the install proccess.

Thank You Flishfun & Raptor

Well I know you weren't being serious, but there are newbies that patrol these boards and I'd hate for one to damage their system and either blame me, Neowin, or the AutoPatcher for it.

[tlyczko]

thank you, this is a great forum thread!!

I think its a great way to show your appreciation, not just to post the batch files you have, I noticed that again Flishfun is having to answer other posts with 'I made that for Kelsenellenelvian I will try to get him to post it' but the only response you give is 'let them ask' did you have to ask to download autopatcher or have to beg to get FlishFun aid to make and tutor you, do you think it reasonable that he has to remake files for all that ask, okay some of your own creations may not be perfect but in the OPEN others can help correct or improve them and more importantly FlishFun isn't having to reinvest time to help and respond to others in the same way he helped you.

I know what you mean... I would like to see him post all of those batches, but I guess it's partially my fault too. I was up so late helping him with the batches that I wasn't thinking and I deleted them all when we got them working. I'll try to get ahold of him today and get him to send them all to me. Then I'll make a post with them all in it.
