I am writing a simple program that can automatically reinstall and update third-party applications on BitsyX, however, when I execute the CAB file, the user is prompted with the message "app-name is already installed. Re-install?" Is it possible to suppress this warning so that upgrades and reinstalls can be silent?

| Have your installer erase the application install's registry entries before installing the CAB. |

I also try with ADScopy but the setup hang when message 'already instaled' popups.
Although, I known that the wceload command has /noui options, it does not suppress the dialog, and intaller must use wceload to execute the file. To suppress the reinstall warnings, can I edit a registry value for the application that indicates whether the application is already installed ? If yes, what registry key I must use ?
Here is the details of my device:
- BitsyX , CE 4.20.13 (which supports mono display but not supports WiFi CF card)
- Linksys WCF54G cab file (wl420.ARMV4.CAB)

I found the registry key :
[HKLM/Software/Apps/Linksys Wireless-G CompactFlash Card]
"inst" = 0 ; suppress popup
However I can't install it automatically by using ADScopy. No problem when install manually... Does anyone know why ? |

| Thanks for the details. What happens when you use ADSCopy? Does it hang up or just exit? Are there any messages on the debug port? |
