Deploy software through KACE K1000 is really easy but how we can deploy a software that has multiple installers each for every platform (Windows XP & Windows 7) and architecture (x64 & x86)?

I realized a script that helps you to detect the architecure and the platform.

@echo off

if %PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE% ==x86 (

goto :x86

)

else (

goto :x64

)

:x86

if exist "C:\Users\All Users\ntuser.dat" goto win7x86

if exist "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\ntuser.dat" goto winxpx86

goto osnotdetected

:win7x86

REM Place here the installer command for Windows 7 or Vista 32bit

SetupForWin7x86.exe /S

goto :eof

:winxpx86

REM Place here the installer command for XP 32bit

SetupForXPx86.exe /S

goto :eof

:x64

if exist "C:\Users\All Users\ntuser.dat" goto win7x64

if exist "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\ntuser.dat" goto winxpx64

goto osnotdetected

:win7x64

REM Place here the installer command for Windows 7 or Vista 64bit

SetupForWindows7x64.exe /S

:winxpx64

REM Place here the installer command for Windows XP 64bit

SetupForWindowsXPx64.exe /S

goto :eof

:osnotdetected

Echo I have no idea what OS is this one

REM The end

Caveats:

• The script is given AS IS. You need to test it and adapt it to you needs before to adopt it.
• The script bases the decision about the OS (XP or Vista/7) based on the presence of a system file in a specifc path: if your OS language is not English you may need to refurbish it a bit...
