TimH, thanks you saved me a lot of time, the --record=1 worked a treat.
I am deploying by group policy, the install only works when run as a logged on user, they are idiots at Adobe, because they are using environment variables not available at startup.
So I use a startup script that looks like this:
C:\WINNT\system32\REG.EXE QUERY HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{60B28ECA-78BC-4D18-AB63-4A9A93BF881D}
IF ERRORLEVEL==1 GOTO Logon
IF ERRORLEVEL==0 GOTO END
:Logon
TITLE Add local install account
C:\Winnt\System32\NET.EXE LOCALGROUP Administrators domain\user /ADD
TITLE Set Auto Logon
c:\winnt\system32\REG.exe ADD "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon" /V DisableCAD /D 1 /T REG_DWORD /F
c:\winnt\system32\REG.exe ADD "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon" /V ForceAutoLogon /D 1 /F
c:\winnt\system32\REG.exe ADD "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon" /V AutoAdminLogon /D 1 /F
c:\winnt\system32\REG.exe ADD "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon" /V DefaultDomainName /D Domain /F
c:\winnt\system32\REG.exe ADD "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon" /V DefaultUserName /D user /F
c:\winnt\system32\REG.exe ADD "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon" /V DefaultPassword /D password /F
ECHO AutoLogonSet >C:\Winnt\AutoLogonSet.txt
C:\WINNT\system32\REG.EXE ADD "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run" /V "AdobeCreativeSuite3DesignStandardVL" /D "\\server\AdobeCreativeSuite3MasterCollectionVL\InstallAdobeCreativeSuite3MasterCollectionVL.cmd" /F
C:\Winnt\System32\SHUTDOWN.EXE /r /t 02
GOTO END
:END
The install script called InstallAdobeCreativeSuite3MasterCollectionVL.cmd looks like this:
C:\WINNT\system32\REG.EXE QUERY HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{60B28ECA-78BC-4D18-AB63-4A9A93BF881D}
IF ERRORLEVEL==1 GOTO Install
IF ERRORLEVEL==0 GOTO END
:Install

:Restart
C:\Winnt\System32\SHUTDOWN.EXE /r /t 02

This works on hundreds of desktops in labs, it is not suitable for use staff desktops of laptops due to the autologon required.
