Patches are applied to an installation or to an administrative installation point, not to a package. You would use Admin Studio to *create* a patch.

I would like to know how to apply patch silently to installation or administrative installation point? There seems to be /s /a switches in patch.exe but using them only opens the install normally and wont do it silently. Do i have to point the installation or admin install dir somehow?

first create the AIP using MSIEXEC.EXE /a on the original msi
then run msiexec.exe /p <path to the patch .msp file> /a <path to the MSI in the AIP>

this MSP file, I'm willing to bet, is in the patch.exe you have, try running it through winzip or similar.

for this and more info on msiexec command lines: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa367988(v=vs.85).aspx
