Response file?

Hello

Is it possible to make a response file like Installshield?

Thanks in advance

(Since you've posted this in the AutoPlay Media Studio forum, I'll assume you're asking about AutoPlay, and not one of our Setup Factory products.)

You mean to automatically configure your application -- as though the user went through it and selecting this item, clicked that button, etc.?

The answer is yes and no. No, there is no built-in response file format that your AutoPlay application will natively understand. Yes, you can definitely do that on your own using scripting.

Just read in values from an XML file, or an INI file, or something. You could make your app look for a file with a predetermined name in the same folder as the app, or pass the path to a file as a command line argument. Then use those values to do whatever it is your app does.

No, sorry, SF6 does not have that functionality by default.

It's possible for someone to add that kind of functionality into an installer using scripting, but it's highly unlikely the author of that setup did so.
