Polarman Posted December 5, 2016 Report post Posted December 5, 2016 I have a script installing "LabView" from "National Instruments". However the installer (setup.exe with parameters) is just starting a lot of other installers, and when I use SCCM and detection method the software goes to "installed" just after starting install, although it continues for another hour (!). That is because im checking if a file is present. How could I instead check for "when a process finish or exits then the software is installed"?

Polarman Posted December 9, 2016 Report post Posted December 9, 2016 try | Out-Null like so & "$filepath" $Prms | Out-Null it won't release the process until it's complete Can I change this to "start-process "$filepath" -argumentlist "$arguments" | Out-Null ? Or is the "&" only set for this? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
