.net - Specify quiet and norestart on msi installation executed, through visual c# app, by Microsoft.Deployment.WindowsInstaller.dll (Windows Installer XML)

Question

all!

I am using the dynamic library "Microsoft.Deployment.WindowsInstaller.dll" (from Windows Installer XML, that is, http://wixtoolset.org/), in my C# project, to install a MSI package programatically:

using System;
using Microsoft.Deployment.WindowsInstaller;

private static void InstallWIXML(string msiPackage)
{
    Installer.InstallProduct(msiPackage, "REBOOT=R");
}

. But I don't know how to make this automatic, not restartable, quiet, installation. This InstallWIXML method does a manual (it is case dependent!), not restartable, not quiet (it is case dependent!), installation.

Thanks for some help!

Answer 1

I used the following code, like in my comment of the Christopher Painter's answer:

using System;
using Microsoft.Deployment.WindowsInstaller;

private static void InstallWIXML(string msiPackage)
{
    Installer.SetInternalUI(InstallUIOptions.Silent);
    Installer.InstallProduct(msiPackage, "REBOOT=R");
}

. It works for my question.

Thanks for the Christopher Painter's answer and comments, too!
