Software Deployment

this should help it's the knowledge base, which of course you checked before posting

run "en_visio_2010_x64_516535.exe /extract:c:\visio" in the command prompt

edit the C:\visor\Visor.WW\config.xml

with the features you want remember that you should add
<Display Level="None" CompletionNotice="No" SuppressModal="No" AcceptEula="Yes" />
to the config.xml and
<PIDKEY Value="XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX" />
where the X:es represent you product key

to run the installation silently run
setup.exe /config Visior.WW\config.xml

done, works on MDT 2010

Is anyone having trouble removing Visio 2000 STD automatically on silent install? through msi I check remove all versions but the machines still have visio 2000 after deployment

What result did you get when you tested stand-alone i.e. not via your (unmentioned) deployment method?

testing via stand alone resulted in the same. visio 2000 remains. the manual installation procedure did not identify that visio 2000 was installed or ask if i would like to have it removed.

I am deploying visio 2010 via landesk. the msp file created is being called via batch file command listed bellow.

@echo off
rem - calls the msp file for installation
"\\mflandesk\packages\MS Visio 2010 Pro\setup.exe" /adminfile "\\mflandesk\packages\MS Visio 2010 Pro\MFC_Visio_2010_Pro.msp"
rem - displays a countdown timer (/T:#) and closes all applications (/C) before rebooting (/r) the machine
"\\mflandesk\packages\Microsoft Office 2007 Std SP2\shutdown.exe" /T:30 /C /R

If Visio is like other members of the Office family, there wil be a collection of log files in %TEMP%. Start with those.
