Ah I understand. Thank you for explaining this. You might be interested in the following conversations, which have to do with installing silently on Windows: https://www.mail-archive.com/search?l=mid&q=52F51626.4060703%40embl-heidelberg.de in particular the link within: https://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-devel@lists.lyx.org/msg181907.html After reading it might be useful to get in touch with Øyvind and Frank to see how they solved their problems. This shows a commit that is relevant to our Windows installer working in silent mode: https://www.mail-archive.com/search?l=mid&q=20140218011606.A8323280184%40lyx.lyx.org > Have you tried both the "bundle" and the plain "installer"?

Actually I won't be of much direct help to you (I've only used Ubuntu for the last 10 years). But Uwe will respond when he has time (note that he is quite busy though now). I hope we get this figured out soon! Scott
