Perform an Administrative installation (command line option /a).

Hi,
What you mean by Administrative installation (command line option /a)?
I tried this:
msiexec /a "C:\\A" /qb TARGETDIR="C:\\"
But got error. The error is "msiexec': not defined.
Do you know how to solve the error?

You need to point to your .msi file and you probably don't want to use the root of C. The syntax for a silent installation would be something like:
msiexec /a "c:\PathToMsi\Product.msi" TARGETDIR="C:\ExtractedLocation\" /qb
msiexec /a "c:\PathToMsi\Product.msi" TARGETDIR="C:\ExtractedLocation\" /qb
