Any installation silent switch for Avast 6?
« on: March 02, 2011, 04:18:47 AM »
Except /Silent, are there any installation silent switches to customize Avast 6 during installation? There are many features that I don't need such as P2P, outlook, and etc... And, recently, I discover that there is additional tools called autosandbox, which I don't use it at all. Are there anyway to customize these features during installation?

Yes, you can do a Custom Install of Avast.

Well I don't know if you are aware of how the avast auto-sandbox works. It doesn't run all the time, it doesn't run for all programs, it is only offered when the file system shield thinks it worth running sandboxed (e.g. suspect/unknown, etc.) and even then you can decline the suggestion to run it sandboxed.

So I would suggest that you leave that and see how it runs, if it has any effect on your system. For me it is almost near silent.

There is no silent install on the free version. The custom install is selected when you run the normal installation file.

You are given the option for a regular or Custom Install when you do the install.  Select Custom and that is it.  Just read what is on the screen and what you are clicking.
