Installation Guide

Installation Guide 1

Corel® Painter® Installation Guide

The Corel® Painter® Installation Guide documents installation options so

system administrators can carry out an unattended (or silent) installation

and specify custom settings, such as installation folder, serial number, and

more.

Corel Painter X3 supports Setup.exe command lines. Each sample

command line provides an example of Setup.exe command lines, which

should meet your installation requirements.

Preparing for the installation

In preparation for the installation, you need to verify the version of .NET

Framework you have installed.

Verifying the .NET Framework version

You must have .NET Framework 4.5 or later installed before you can install

Corel Painter X3. If you’re installing from a CD, .NET Framework 4.5 is

included in the installation package. If you’re using electronic software

distribution (ESD), you must ensure that you have .NET Framework 4.5 or

later installed. If you don’t, you can download .NET Framework from

http://www.microsoft.com/download.

Running the full installer

You can run the full installer (Setup.exe) to install Corel Painter X3 with

the user interface (UI) visible for an attended installation, or without any

UI for a silent installation.

Accessing Help during the installation

You can access Help for the setup using either /? or /help.

Performing a silent installation

The /q switch can be used to perform “silent installations” to restrict the

amount of the user interface (UI) that appears during installation.

Parameters

You can specify one of the following parameters for the /q switch. The

default parameter for /q is n.

Parameter Effect

nNo UI whatsoever. Errors are logged in a file that you

can control by using /l. This is the default parameter.

Installation Guide 2

Installing with a pre-defined serial number

To install with a serial number, use the following command for 64-bit and

32-bit:

x:\x64\

Setup.exe /qn SERIALNUMBER=<valid serial number>

or

x:\x86\

Setup.exe /qn SERIALNUMBER=<valid serial number>

SERIALNUMBER is a property that defines the serial number that uses the

syntax xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx. Public properties, such as SERIALNUMBER,

are case-sensitive and must be typed in capital letters. For example:

SERIALNUMBER=YK93-DY87-V3LN-K3UJ

The serial number specified by SERIALNUMBER must be valid. If it isn’t, the

silent installation continues, but Corel Painter X3 will start up in trial

mode, as if no serial number had been entered. The validation failure is

logged by Windows Installer.

If you’ve entered a serial number incorrectly and Corel Painter X3 is in trial

mode, click the Enter Serial Number button and type your serial number.

Installing at a user-defined location

The default location for installation is the path Program

Files\Corel\Painter13, but you can use the INSTALLDIR public property

to install the software at a specific location on the workstations. The value

for this property is the desired installation path. If there are spaces in the

path, you must enclose the path in quotation marks. Here’s the command-

line syntax for 64-bit and 32-bit (which also shows a silent installation):

x:\x64\

Setup.exe /qn

SERIALNUMBER=YK93-DY87-V3LN-K3UJ

INSTALLDIR="C:\Custom_Install_Path"

or

x:\x86\

Setup.exe /qn

SERIALNUMBER=YK93-DY87-V3LN-K3UJ

INSTALLDIR="C:\Custom_Install_Path"

When using the INSTALLDIR property in a msiexec installation, the path

cannot end with a backslash (/).

rReduced UI: A progress bar, along with a page containing

information about the installation.

bBasic UI: The user sees only a progress bar.

Parameter Effect

Installation Guide 3

Using logging options

You can request the creation of logs at a specified location using the /l

switch with various modifiers. The default parameters for the /l switch are

iwearmo.

You can specify one or more of the following parameters for the /l switch.

Location and filename of log file

The /l switch can take an additional parameter: the location and filename

of the log file. Type /l followed by a space; followed by an opening

quotation mark, the path to the log file, the filename of the log file, and a

closing quotation mark. Here’s the command-line syntax for 64-bit and

32-bit (where log_file is the location and filename of the log file):

x:\x64\

Setup.exe /l

SERIALNUMBER=YK93-DY87-V3LN-K3UJ

"Log_file"

Parameter Effect

iLogs status messages

wLogs nonfatal warnings

eLogs all error messages

aLogs initiated actions

rLogs action-specific records

uLogs user requests

cLogs initial user-interface parameters

mLogs error messages about out-of-memory warnings or

fatal exits

oLogs error messages resulting from insufficient hard disk

space during installation to a server

pLogs terminal properties

vLogs very detailed information

xLogs extra debugging information

+Appends to existing log file

!Flushes each line to the log

*Applies all parameters except v and x, recording all

information in a single log file

/log <LogFile> Can be used in place of /l*

Installation Guide 4

or

x:\x86\

Setup.exe /l

SERIALNUMBER=YK93-DY87-V3LN-K3UJ

"Log_file"

If you do not specify a path and filename, the log file is created in the

current user’s Temp folder.

Syntax

The following sample command line uses the default parameters of the

/l switch to log information in the file C:\Logs\My_Log.txt during

installation (for 64-bit and 32-bit):

x:\x64\

Setup.exe /l

SERIALNUMBER=YK93-DY87-V3LN-K3UJ

"C:\Logs\My_Log.txt"

or

x:\x86\

Setup.exe /l

SERIALNUMBER=YK93-DY87-V3LN-K3UJ

"C:\Logs\My_Log.txt"

Using the /qn switch with /l

You can use the /qn and /l switches together. The following sample

command line uses /qn to suppress the user interface during installation

and record errors in the specified log file (for 64-bit and 32-bit):

x:\x64\

Setup.exe /qn

SERIALNUMBER=YK93-DY87-V3LN-K3UJ

/l

"C:\Logs\My_Log.txt"

or

x:\x86\

Setup.exe /qn

SERIALNUMBER=YK93-DY87-V3LN-K3UJ

/l

"C:\Logs\My_Log.txt"

Combining command line elements

You can combine command line elements, such as properties, switches, and

parameters. The following sample command line shows a silent installation

from a UNC path (rather than a normal map drive) with a predefined serial

number. The command line also shows installation to a custom path and

the creation of a log file to a specified folder for 64-bit and 32-bit.

"\\PathTo\x64\Setup.exe" /qn SERIALNUMBER=YK93-DY87-V3LN-

K3UJ INSTALLDIR= "C:\Custom_Install_Path" /l

"C:\Logs\My_Log.txt"

or

"\\PathTo\x86\Setup.exe" /qn SERIALNUMBER=YK93-DY87-V3LN-

K3UJ INSTALLDIR= "C:\Custom_Install_Path" /l

"C:\Logs\My_Log.txt"

Installation Guide 5

Repairing the software

You can use the command-line switch /f to repair the software. When

using the command-line switch /f, you must also use /qn. The default

parameters for /f are oums.

Here’s the command-line syntax for 64-bit and 32-bit:

x:\x64\

Setup.exe /f /qn

or

x:\x86\

Setup.exe /f /qn

You can specify one or more of the following parameters for the /f switch.

Removing the software

You can use the command-line switch /x or /uninstall to remove the

software.

Using the /x or /uninstall command line with Setup.exe removes the

entire suite.

Here’s the command-line syntax:

Setup.exe /x

Parameter Effect

pReinstalls missing files

oReinstalls missing files and files older than current

version

eReinstalls missing files and files equal to or older than

current version
