RE: Silent install utility
I don't think it's any faster than just doing an admin image and having everyone load from that. Admin image is probably your best bet at this time. Silent install gives you the ability too to upgrade a users seat of SW without you leaving your seat or them being present. It upgrades it without their knowledge.

We've never used the SolidWorks install utility; we just use the "msiexec" function. SolidWorks has a good resource here:

(Look under "SolidWorks installation guide.")

Also, do you run the batch file from the windows startup folder?
