SUPERAntiSpyware 5.0 Silent Install

I know this is not the answer you want, but have you looked at MalwareBytes?

SAS has not kept up with the quality of the detections since its release, and is usually a big resource hog....

Anyhoo.....

Looks like this version  the /q on the .exe doesn't even work......

The only folders  it creates during install is :

%TEMP%\SuperSetup
%appdata%\SUPERSetup
%appdata%\SUPERAntiSpyware.com

Oh, I agree that Malwarebytes is MUCH BETTER, however, I install both programs just off the fact that sometimes SUPERAntiSpyware will catch things other programs will not.  I will post on their forum, but I have a feeling they are going to tell me that only the Professional Edition is able to.

If they have created their own installation tool, I don't think they made the tool itself also different for "pro" and "free" versions. The command switch, if any, would apply to the tool.

If you want, we can try to repackage it into true MSI.

Sure vadimrapp1.  What would I have to do?

I do appreciate the offer vadimrapp1, but I don't NEED to have a silent install.  I technically don't need to have SUPERAntiSpyware in my list of programs to automatically install.  However it would be nice.  I'll ask my boss, who I'm sure will ask me how much it would be, but if you do have suggestions that would be FREE, that would be the best option for me! :)  I know, I know, everybody wants things for free these days.  Damn kids :P

The beta programs are usually ongoing. ;-)

So, is silent install with SUPERAntiSpyware impossible now, without breaking down the coding?

Since it's appears to be their own custom installer, it's totally unknown. The only party who has the answer are themselves on their forum. Indirectly, if in the past they had MSI but then moved to end-user-oriented tool, quiet network deployment probably wasn't one of their priorities.

I found this page that indicates that have it planned when they were building 5.0, maybe this helps?

Just posting saying still looking for any suggestions.

I've requested that this question be deleted for the following reason:

Here is where you can find the MSI version if avail:

These are version 4 MSI's, which the author said he has. He was looking for version 5.

The question was in fact investigated and answered, with the answer being  http:#36580876 - this setup is made by the developers themselves, using their own custom installer, so only they know how it works, and they seem to be participating on their forum.

@vadimrapp1: You are right. Thanks!

Cheers,

I thank you all for your help.  Sorry we couldn't get an 'immediate' solution.

SouthMod, as you know, one of the acceptable answers is "you can't do that". Author's comment http#36583384 confirms that what we found in http:#36580876  was correct, the installer of this product is proprietary, and the only way to obtain what author wanted was to email "nicks AT superantispyware.com".

I wish there was a better answer than another forum, or have someone reverse engineer it, but that's the way it is sometimes.  Thank you for your help everyone.

> or have someone reverse engineer it

good idea. It was
