I didn't expect to be deploying an application through a CD installation in 2018, but here we are. I have following files on my ISO image:
E:
|- autorun.inf
|- Setup.msi
|- CD_icon.ico
|- setup.exe
Here's a screenshot:
The autorun.inf
contains the following content:
[autorun]
icon=CD_icon.ico
label=Instal MySoftware
UseAutoPlay=1
shellexecute=Setup.msi
[Content]
MusicFiles=false
PictureFiles=false
VideoFiles=false
When I double click the CD file or select "Run or install program from media" I get this error dialog for this CD image:
What's wrong with my ISO file? Why is the icon not showing and the installer does not run?
Windows 7-10 Ignoring Autorun.inf: This wikipedia article describes differences in the handling of autorun.inf
over time: Autorun.inf. And more on AutoRun. It appears you need a real CD / DVD to test this double click. You have an ISO file? Maybe burn it to real media?
Setup.msi: Are you sure you can kick off an MSI like that? Don't you need a full msiexec.exe
command line or better yet: a setup.exe
wrapper which kicks off the installation? Tools such as Advanced Installer feature support to create such launchers. I think Installshield has it too. UPDATE: you probably can use an MSI file directly, since you use the shellexecute
and not the Open
"commands".
Previous Answers: Here is an older question relating to the use of ISO files: trigger setup.exe when I mount an iso.
Security Software: And as mentioned in the comment. Many security suites disable all auto-run and auto-play features of Windows - a well known issue that I just want to mention.
