CEAppMgr Cab Installer Through ActiveSync

    Hi,


    I am trying to write an installer based on CEAppMgr.exe to download a set of cab files to my PicoCOM2. I have managed to complete the Win32 application to call CEAppMgr.exe and load the application via ActiveSync but the install sometimes requires GUI input on the PicoCOM2 which is a problem. I would like to force the install to ask no GUI questions and accept Yes to all the installer questions.
    I have researched and found out that a registry entry here:-
    'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows CE Services\AppMgr'
    can have the key
    'SilentInstall'
    when set will install applications without dialog boxes!!
    Found this at <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb882209.aspx">http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb882209.aspx</a><!-- m -->


    This does not work, would someone be able to find out from Microsoft why this feature does not work???

    Might it be a solution to use the wceload utility instead? This programm features the "/noui" option, which is designated for this purpose.
    See: WCEload utility documentation on MSDN

    Hi,
    I wanted to use Activesync to do one click remote setup via usb thought!! Cannot do this with WCELoad unless I can reconfig ActiveSysnc to use this program instead.
    Any more ideas??
