Software Deployment

Hi,

Great stuff the ini file to do the country was the missing piece to my puzzel. Here's how I did a silent install

I used prtk.exe to create the prov.xml file:

adobe_prtk.exe --tool=VolumeSerialize --generate -- --serial=xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx --leid="V7{}PhotoshopElements-EMT12-Win-GM" --regsuppress=ss --eulasuppress

I copied the prov.xml file and adobe_prtk.exe to my source file location. I also created the elements.inin file as shown in previous post and copied that to the source files too.

I then created a batch file in the source file directory:

install.bat:

cd /d %~dp0

Start/wait setup.exe /q /UL1033/V"SERIALNUMBER=xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx"

adobe_prtk.exe --tool=VolumeSerialize --provfile

del /q c:\"users\public\desktop\adobe photoshop elements 12.lnk"

copy elements.ini "C:\Users\All Users\Adobe\Elements Organizer\12.0"

This batch file also removes the desktop shortcut to Elements

Hope this helps!!

I've been having that same issue and what I found is the first time you run Photoshop it creates "C:\Users\All Users\Adobe\Elements Organizer\12.0\elements.ini" without a country code in it.  So I put in 244 for the code and copied the elements.ini file into my source files. 

So the elements.ini looks like this:

[PSEInformation]
Country=244
AMTCode=574034
LauncherLaunchCount=6
AppState=0

And my install.bat looks like this:

start/wait Setup.exe /UL1033 /V“SERIALNUMBER=xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx"
copy elements.ini "C:\Users\All Users\Adobe\Elements Organizer\12.0"

Not sure if that's the best way to do it but it works for me.  Now I just need to figure out the license/registration issue.
