You can remove the /quiet, it's redundant with /qn

In setup.py, you can use the `install_msi_if_needed` command, which by default launches the MSI in silent mode
Code: Select all
def install():
print('Install Solid Edge ST8')
install_msi_if_needed('Solid Edge ST8.msi',min_version="",timeout=300)
print uninstallkey
The advantage of this function is that you don't have to worry about the uninstallation key (you leave uninstallkey=[] and the function fills it in automatically).

I did a debug and I'm getting a syntax error:
And all that's needed is to enter that to allow the package to be installed?

Hi Killian,
A quick search on the silent installation method for SolidEdge might help:

Also, to observe what's actually happening, you can use Process Explorer from Microsoft SysInternals (which I just updated):

I had looked at this interesting site but I didn't understand the link with the .py file, but now it's all OK, thank you!

I just had one last question about how to confirm an uninstallation.
Thank you.
