Hello
I am using INNO to make a setup file of my application, i want to install one more exe with the my application which should be hidden from user, i mean user should not know about it,
I have referred links This but the GUI of exe is visible.
I tried some ways but does not achieve my task

For information: that third party exe asks for "company name" while installing.

What I have tried:

"{app}\setup.exe"; Parameters: "install"; Flags: runhidden

Filename: "msiexec.exe"; Parameters: "/q /i ""{app}\\setup.exe""";Description: "Bio RealTime"; Flags: waituntilterminated

Solution 1

You could try runminimized if runhidden does not work, see: Inno Setup Help[^]
If this also does not work you need to rewrite your application so that when the parameter install is passed no GUI will be shown.
Another Inno Setup flag you can try is VERYSILENT, but I think this will not help in your case.

Solution 2

You have no business subverting the installation process of a "third party software".
