This is a silent installer for Cobian Backup.

Cobian Backup 11 project.

In order to make a silent install, you have to provide a file named "cbSetup.txt" (select the option "Create script for unattended installations" during install) which contains the following (e.g.) :

Cobian Backup 11 Gravity
License accepted=true
Installation directory=C:\Program Files\Cobian Backup 11

Cobian Backup 8 is an open source backup program.

<package
	id="cobian"
	name="Cobian Backup 8.4.0.198"
	revision="1"
	reboot="false"
	prority="1">
	<check type="uninstall" condition="exists" path="Cobian Backup 8" />
	<install cmd='\\%SOFTWARE%\cobian\cobian.exe /SILENT /verysilent /norestart' />
	<upgrade cmd='\\%SOFTWARE%\cobian\cobian.exe /SP- /VERYSILENT /norestart' />
	<remove cmd='"%PROGRAMFILES%\Cobian Backup 8\cbUninstall.exe" /VERYSILENT /SP- /norestart' />
</package>

At the moment the uninstall process does not work in silent mode, it requires user interaction. I'm trying to solve the problem.
