  • Cmd prompt pop up in installation of MS Access 32 bit DB Engine 2016

    I am installing MS Access 32 bit DB Engine 2016 from primer files using /quiet switch. I have tried File.Run() and Shell.Execute(). However, the cmd prompt window would pop up for some time in the middle of the installation before closing itself. Is there a way to hide this pop up? Thank you.

    No. The cmd window is spawned by a task performed by the setup created by Microsoft. The author would need to change the installer in a manner to hide this window from the desktop while it is performing a task on the user's system. The window may be used to display diagnostic messages in case of a failure, or maybe it was just by design - but we as the end users of the installer cannot modify its behavior.
