Note

If you need to supress the Autoupdate you can create an Active setup inside the MSI.

First i added the .prefs file(below) and the vbw script to the msi to be placed in a new folder in the [INSTALLDIR] i named \prefs.

I used a Reg, to run a vbw script. The vbw created the the folders if they werent created already for the location of the prefs file. which is:
sProfileFolder &"Roaming\Business Objects\Crystal Reports Viewer 2008\workspace\.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.core.runtime\.settings
And then copied the "org.eclipse.ui.prefs" file from the C:\Program Files\Business Objects\Crystal Reports Viewer 2008\Prefs\ folder to the newly created folder.

Below is the Prefs file needed.

File Name: org.eclipse.ui.prefs
Text inside file: (Line 6 disables the autoupdate)
