Hi Laurent,

the Windows Installer has no feature that is identical to our old response files. But it has features, that can be used, to simulate the old behaviour.
If you only want to make a silent installation, you can use the /qn parameter from msiexec.exe (the Windows Installer service).
If you want to change some other default values in the installation wizard, you can use the freely available Orca Tool to edit the Windows Installer database and to create a transformation.
Then you can start the installation with a command line like:


msiexec.exe /i openoffice.msi /qn TRANSFORMS=myTransform.mst

Of course the creation of the transformation requires some knowledge of the Windows Installer database. But for many problems this is not so difficult.
