This article describes how to silently install hotfixes using InstallShiled 
installation commands.

You can silently install hotfixes using InstallShield installation commands. 
Follow these steps: 

1. Execute the hotfix using the r command to create the Setup.iss answer file. 

2. Run the hotfix executable (.exe) silently using both the s and r: commands. 
For example:

C:\Hotfixes\Xe100w017\XE100W017.exe s r:C:\Hotfixes\Xe100w017\Setup.iss

Hotfixes can also be installed using the Hotfix.exe utility. For further 
reference see CTX761623 "How to Create an Unattended Installation of Hotfixes."
