command line to change the installation directory
I want to change the installation directory of a third party installer. It looks like it is Multiplatform InstallShield installer. I was able to see the following information by right clicking on the file, FILE -> PROPERTIES -> VERSION tab:
File Version: 4.0.100.1190
Internal Name: stub32
Original File Name: stub32i.exe
How I can modify its installation directory? what command line I can use to do this?
Thanks in advance,
Z

If it truly is a MultiPlatform installer, you can pass -P installLocation=C:\some\other\directory to it. But that version information looks like a PackageForTheWeb wrapper; if you launch this installer, are there any clues in the Temp directory?

Thanks Robert for ur reply!
I ran the following command and opened a different dialog box, which looks like a wrapper:
THIRD_PARTY.exe -P installLocation=C:\Progra~1\test
I have all the information attached in the doc file. Can you please help me figure this thing out, thanks alot.

The internal installer appears to be an InstallScript installation, which doesn't support directly changing the installation directory from the command line, but which instead uses a "response file" (.iss file) to perform a silent installation with changed variable values. Please look up "response file" in http://helpnet.macrovision.com for information about preparing an InstallScript installer for silent installation. (You might post any follow-ups to the InstallScript forum.)
