Under certain circumstances you may need to install the Microsoft VM without user input or without the forced reboot at the end.
A common situation that requires this functionality is when you create a custom setup program that, in addition to installing an application, needs to upgrade the client's virtual machine.
Note The custom setup program must reboot the client's computer or the Microsoft VM will not install properly.
To accomplish this task you must install the Microsoft VM (Msjavx86.exe) with the following command line switches.
msjavx86 /q:a /r:n
The only thing that will be displayed is a window showing which components are being installed during the setup process. The computer will not be rebooted.
/q:a is quiet admin mode
This skips the disk space and administrative rights checks, both items that could potentially pop up an error dialog box. Using /q alone will allow the possibility of such errors occurring.
/r:n signifies no reboot
