It is not silent but I think it will work

Hi,

I figure it out. Setup.exe accepts the parameter "/s" for a silent install. One can pass a destination log file, to log any error during the install.

setup.exe /s file_to_log.log

However, the silent install could not be absolutly silent, because sometimes you can get a warning message (like that the file being copied is older than the file you already have in disk). For this I change setup1.exe, and get off this message, writing in the log file that this situation had occur.

Thank you
