MSI Options Specific to Dragon
This section describes the fundamental msiexec.exe options that apply to Dragon NaturallySpeaking
. Additional options that apply only to a Dragon installation are listed in:
n MSI Windows Installer Options
n MSI Options for Installing Dragon Features/Advanced Options
n MSI Options for Roaming User Profile, Tuning, and Data Collection Setup
Dragon command line options do not need to be prefaced by hyphens or slashes.
Notes:
n In Dragon NaturallySpeaking , the installation process does not present the QuickStart option.
If you wish to enable this option, you can do so after Dragon is installed.
n Launching msiexec.exe /i "Dragon NaturallySpeaking 12.msi" XYZ=ABC automatically sets the
property named XYZ to the value of ABC internally and continues the installation. However, if
you use setup.exe to install, you must put all msiexec.exe options you pass it in quotation marks
after the /v option.
Unless noted otherwise, all property values are in UPPERCASE.
Options Description
DEFAULTSINI="c:\
nsdefaults.ini"
Indicates a default settings (nsdefaults.ini ) file
that the installer uses to change the default
behavior of the product for all end-users at
installation time. This file must be in an .ini
file format; any settings you want to take
effect on clients must have a section name
encased in square brackets as well as the
value and data. If only values and data are set
in this file without the section name encased
in brackets, the settings are not propagated
on client computers. Usually, you do not edit
the nsdefaults.ini file directly; instead you
set defaults in Dragon’s Options and Administrative
Settings dialog boxes.
Follow these steps to create a nsdefaults.ini
file for an MSI installation:
Install Dragon on a computer with Windows
administrator privileges.
Set options in the Options and Administrative
Settings dialog boxes as required in
your environment and save them by closing
Dragon.
