Are you trying to accomplish to install VLC along with your product? If so, you may want to create your own InstallShield prerequisite for VLC so that you can include it in your Basic MSI, InstallScript MSI, or InstallScript project. If you want to provide a unified, fully customizable user interface, you may want to consider using a Suite/Advanced UI project in order to package together the VLC setup and the setup for your product as a single installation. See Creating Advanced UI and Suite/Advanced UI Installations for more information.
My requirement is I have few softwares like VLC, Postgres etc currently I am installing it separately and manually. So I want to create a installer for it, so they can be installed in one go and hidden.
I tried installscript for vlc, and used LaunchAppAndWait method, but currently it is installing it but it is visible(means user or I need to click next, next of vlc) (1) this I want to hide? (2) I have give hardcode path to LaunchAppAndWait, where should I place vlc.exe in installer?
It sounds like that an InstallShield Suite/Advanced UI installer is more suitable for your needs over an InstallScript installer as it offers a clear and easy solution that enables you bundle all of your packages together into a single installation. Below I have included some links to our resources for you to learn the technology as a starting point. Also, Flexera Software now offers a New Training Service for Suite Installations.
