Adobe Captivate Silent Install



However, you may still be able to download and install Captivate 9 on Windows using just File 2 together with a utility such as 7-Zip, as File 1 is very small and primarily functions as an extractor. The macOS version, however, has been pulled completely by Adobe (we cannot explain the inconsistencies in the different file availabilities). Adobe Air exe command line explanation. AdobeAIRInstaller.exe – the msi file-silent – Silent Installation. Execute command. Run as Administrator the Install.cmd script and as a result the Adobe Air will be installed silently. The setup.exe for Captivate 4 does not understand the silent switches and thinks it has to install in full GUI mode. It says: 'Begin Adobe Setup UI mode: Full GUI' and then stops on the serial number screen. Has anybody tried and succeeded in silently installing Adobe Captivate. Download a free 30-day trial of Adobe Captivate. I’m pretty sure it is because of this message why I can’t deploy using SCCM via silent install. I know I can click ignore and continue installing the software; but i need to find best way to package and deploy, since I cannot use the Creative Cloud Packager for this one.

Note
First use Adobe's Creative Cloud Packager. The example uses Sep 2017 files.

cd Exceptions

cd ..Build
start /wait msiexec /i 'Captivate1709.msi' /qn /lv* 'c:windowslogsAdobe_Captivate1709.log'
cd ..Exceptions
exceptionDeployer.exe --workflow=install --mode=post
Then for SCCM application mode, use a method to detect. MSI detection did not work and files do not have the version numbers. I had to use file exist with a certain size logic. The picture would make it clearer.

Adobe Captivate 10 Silent Install

Update: This still works with Captivate 2017. Just update the acode.

Was working on packaging Captivate for a couple of labs that need it for a special class next week and was having the most difficult time with Captivate’s NeoSeeker Voices. It looks like its been a problem to deploy before and someone on the Mac side of things even made a tutorial to fix it for his use here. Knowing that Adobe’s packaging files are very similar across both platforms I wanted to see if I could do the same thing for Windows. Good news: you can!

When running the installer and clicking install the same deploy.xml is created in the logged in user’s temporary folder. You can take the same idea and install it.
