Sorry for not reporting back, I tested LyX-207-Installer-2.exe, it worked perfect, now I can install and uninstall unattended with the /S-switch, and all the other icons is still there in the Start Menu. But a forgot to report back :-( I tested the same with LyX-2.0.7-Installer-4.exe now, also with success. With LyX-2.0.7-Installer-4.exe I also tested the integration against MikTex. First I installed the basic MikTex 64-bit installer, and then intstalled LyX-2.0.7-Installer-4.exe silent with /S. It worked very well, the installer started up automatically MikTex's packet manager in batch mode, and installed all necessary components. Great!
