Picasa MSI please?

Has anyone got an MSI for picasa?

Never mind you can install it silently with /S and /L to prevent it running.


I can check for this installation via a batch file "IF EXIST" before installing it but how can I get this to run at login without asking the user if they want to run the batch file? Different topic I know, I might post it somewhere else if nobody replies.

cheers (yup working at the weekend)

Either of these should do it.

Picasa.cmd

Set SEE_MASK_NOZONECHECKS=1

Start "" /Wait /B "X:\Picasa36-setup.exe" /S /L

Set SEE_MASK_NOZONECHECKS=0

Picasa.vbs

set oShell= CreateObject("Wscript.Shell")
set oEnv = oShell.Environment("PROCESS")
oEnv("SEE_MASK_NOZONECHECKS") = 1

oShell.Run "X:\Picasa36-setup.exe /S /L", 0, True

oEnv.Remove("SEE_MASK_NOZONECHECKS")

As a matter of interest, what are you planning to use it for? Last time I checked, Picasa didn't work well on shared image stores - instead of modifiying images when you apply a filter, crop, etc, Picasa stores the change data in a separate file in the same folder as the original image. Having multiple users use the same shared folder causes confusion - you might want to check Picasa is doing what you expect before you get a class to use it.

I don't know to be honest, we have a curriculum team who use it throughout primary schools. I just need install it.
