With the
Visual Installer setup tool it is possible to create a silent
installation that runs discreetly and without any user interaction. No
dialog boxes or installation windows will be shown during the
setup process, only a small percent gauge is shown discreetly in
one corner of the screen to show how the installation proceeds.
This functionality is very useful if you want to make it easy
for end-users to run an installation with default settings. It
can even be useful for administrators if they want to make
installations in networks with many computers.
