System wide Installation

Normally, Google Chrome installs per-user. To install it system-level into the %PROGRAMFILES% directory, use the chrome_installer.exe installer and the --system-level option. Please note that the regular Chrome standalone installer (ChromeStandaloneSetup.exe) does not seem to accept any command-line switches and can't be made to install silently.

Interesting side note: even though you can't make ChromeStandaloneSetup.exe to install silently, you can get a version of it that will install systemwide. To get this, first download the regular version of the ChromeStandaloneSetup.exe . Make a note of the actual URL the file was downloaded from (in Firefox, right-click on the downloaded file and select "copy download link"). This link will include the string "needadmin%3Dfalse". Replace this string with "needadmin%3Dtrue" and download again from this modified URL. This will give you an installer for systemwide installation.

This is a silent installer and uninstaller for Google Chrome. This will install Google Chrome only for the user running wpkg.

<package
	id="chrome"
	name="Google Chrome"
	revision="17"
	reboot="postponed"
	priority="5"
	>
	<!--<check type="uninstall" condition="exists" path="Google Chrome" /> This doesn't work for per-user appliations... -->
	<check type="file" condition="exists" path="%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" />
	
	<install cmd="%SOFTWARE%\chrome\chrome_installer.exe"/> 
	<install cmd="PING LOCALHOST -n 5"/>
	<install cmd="taskkill /IM chrome.exe">
           <exit code="any"/>
        </install>	
	<install cmd='cmd /c mkdir "%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\Application"'>
           <exit code="any"/>
        </install >
        <install cmd='cmd /c echo hello > "%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\Application\First Run"'/>

	<upgrade cmd="%SOFTWARE%\chrome\chrome_installer.exe"/> 
	<upgrade cmd="PING LOCALHOST -n 5"/>

          <exit code="any"/>
