Hi,
I am installing an msi with msiexec.exe in quiet mode and I need to install
it for everyone instead of "Just Me". Is it possible to change this on the
command line? Is there a way to default to everyone before building my
setup project?

Current command line: msiexec /q mysetup.msi

Thanks,
Mark.

Open the msi in Orca and set the property FolderForm_AllUsers to ALL

Also take a look at
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/msi/setup/how_do_i_specify_a_per_use
r_or_per_machine_installation.asp
The msiexec command will be something like
msiexec /q /i package.msi ALLUSERS=1

You can set the ALLUSERS property to 1 or 2.
