''Information for UltraEdit V17''

In order to '''deploy''' UltraEdit V17 silently to your users, please make sure to use
our latest build here:

http://www.ultraedit.com/downloads/ultraedit_download.html

You must first create a '''response file''' by running the EXE locally with
the /r switch. The path for the response file is specified following
the /f1 switch:

ue_english.exe /r /f1"C:\path\to\file\setup.iss"

(Please note: the path must already exist, as the InstallScript will not
automatically create it if it does not.)

This will launch the installer with all installation options, and your
choices to these options will be recorded in the "setup.iss" response
file. The options you select will then be used as the installation
defaults for all users to whom you silently deploy the EXE/response file.

After the response file has been generated, you can deploy the installer
silently based on the response file. To do this, launch the
InstallScript EXE with the /s switch, again using the /f1 switch to
specify the location of the response file.

ue_english.exe /s /f1"C:\path\to\file\setup.iss"

UE v17.00, UES 11.00, and UC 8.00 and later use per-machine activation
for licensing. If you are deploying UltraEdit silently to a group of
machines, then you can silently and automatically activate the license
on each machine via the command line.

To accomplish this, after the application has been silently installed,
run the following command on the target system to activate the license:

uedit32.exe /lic,e="<LicenseID>|<Password>"

...where "<LicenseID>" is your unique license ID and "<Password>" is
your unique password. Example:

uedit32.exe /lic,e="1234567|AzBxcYD"

Each system will use the same license ID and password to activate the
license, so you can simply save this as a batch file and automatically
execute it on each system as part of your silent installation (or
whatever works best for you). This process of activating the license
does require an outbound internet connection on the target system.

Important note: Should you need to move your license, make sure you
deactivate via the Help menu before activating a new installation or via
uninstalling from your old system before activating a new installation.

In order to uninstall UltraEdit silently, you would use the same method
as required for silent installation. You would need to first create an
uninstall response file with the /uninst flag, for example:

ue_english.exe /uninst /r /f1"C:\path\to\file\uninstall.iss"

Then to use this response file, use similar syntax on target systems:

ue_english.exe /uninst /s /f1"C:\path\to\file\uninstall.iss"
