Install Microsoft Office and Adobe Acrobat via Tech Tool Store

Post by Muhammad Tasneem »

Hi,

I was trying to search the forum, but not succeed. That's why I am asking here.
Is it possible to install Microsoft Office and Adobe Acrobat Via Tech Tool Store? and how?
Like I have different versions in my Portable Hard Disk and I choose

At the moment I am installing these two software manually.

Hi Muhammad.

Adobe acrobat is already part of TTS. As for MS Office, I would recommend that you create a new tool that installs an office package that you previously placed in the Tech tool store tools folder. Downloading the desired package is also possible, if you know the direct URL

Most office packages support the /passive /norestart command line switches. Some even support the /silent switch.

Example for an executable file package:
  1. Download the MS Office installation package and copy it to the Tech Tool Store tools folder, naming it MSOfficeSetup.exe
  2. Create a new tool named MS Office (Install only)
  3. Set the new tool's first command as %ToolsDir%\MSOfficeSetup.exe /passive /norestart
  4. Save the new tool
This is just an example and may not work for the office package you use. Some packages use different command line switches, and others even use XML configuration files, that you can easily create and place in the Tech Tool Store tools folder as well.

Let me know if you need any further help.
One thing we humans have in common is that we are all different. So, if you think you're weird because you're different from everyone else, then we are all weird.
