About Silent Installation Using Answer Files

Are you continuing to perform silent installation without uninstalling?

Installation in a first-time and pre-installed environment often changes the process.

Wouldn't an answer file automatically created with the first installation not be able to accommodate those situations?

Possible actions include:

• Uninstall and then install silently
• Silent installation on other PCs that are not installed
• Create an answer file for installation in an installed environment. Check for installation separately and switch the answer file you specify
