Toad for SQL EXE install Switches Issue

Per Quests documentation, trying to use these command line options:

ToadInstaller.exe /S /Lx “C:\temp\installLog.txt”
INSTALLDIR=”Drive:\your_install_path” USERNAME=”some_user” COMPANYNAME=”your_company” ALLUSERS=1

SOMETHING here is causing the Windows Installer Help Window to Pop Up on the Client and it causes the install to fail....I even removed the SILENT switch, but still no love---thoughts?

Did you copy and paste the quotes from the documentation? If so, try deleting and re-typing them. Sometimes websites use a fancy version of double quotes that CMD doesn't understand.

I found the documentation you mentioned, and it looks like most of those arguments are optional. Try this:
```
ToadInstaller.exe /S ALLUSERS=1
```
