Hi, I want to install the DirectX 9c user package in quiet mode. Is there any option like /quiet /q /qb etc. None of these worked.

Note:

With this file DXSETUP.exe /q

not the extractor file directx_9c_redist.exe /q ( this works fine.)

Try this (taken from MSDN):

Set up silently. Launch setup in silent mode so that users do not accidentally skip updating the DirectX runtime. You can do this by launching dxsetup.exe with the following command: path-to-redistributable\dxsetup.exe /silent or by calling DirectSetup and not showing any UI.

nope, not working ... please tell some more options, so that I try some.

added one more option, give it a try

seems dxsetup.exe /silent is not throwing any error msg :) , but no process can be seen in Task manager, unlike 'Window installer' in Silent mode or '.NET framework' in Silent mode. And how to confirm that it is being installed .. I'll get back again.

I guess you can check the returned error code for confirmation of a successful installation. Is it really critical for you that the process can be seen in Task manager?
Alexey Kalmykov
Well I got error code 0. OK .. it means it installs .. fine .. thanks.

Good to hear. Please kindly accept the solution (it will indicate for everyone that this solution works).
