The thing is, that a silent install with, all the appropriate switches runs correctly when run from a command prompt on a machine. It makes the appropriate registry changes during the install. If the same install is deployed via SCCM, it does not seem to behave the same. I did use Regshot, and if it was a handful of reg entries, I would add them as part of the install.
Regshot shows more than 50 registry entries that get changed/added. Some are system registry entries. I was just looking for some input from Sys admins that may have had to deploy this product. I am sure it is great as an accessibility software, but in terms of enterprise deployment, it is a pain.
Yes, this is a terrible issue with this software. I contacted their support a year ago and they had no solution.
I too tried to look at what it was doing and it was quite overwhelming and unless machines were identical, I would guess impossible to replicate with a script and reg files. From their tech support: 'Unfortunately we have had reports of issues with deploying ZoomText with SCCM where you get the message where you have to log in with admin rights to launch it the first time.
Unfortunately we do not have a fix for this. Our developers are looking into the issue. Unfortunately we do not have a time frame on a fix. If possible send us the log files to ZoomText so we can pass it along to development to help them with trying to fix the issue. Yes, this is a terrible issue with this software.
