Hello,
The special software I have developed cannot be started when run on other computers. This is because Scanner Driver is not installed on that computer. But this software does not only act as a connection with the Scanner device. It must be done in transactions on Microsoft Access DB. That's why it should also work on computers that don't have the Device connected.
Is it possible to create a Setup project in Visual Studio and automatically install the Zebra Driver package with its own exe? (Zebra_CoreScanner_Driver_(64bit)_v3.07.0031.exe).
When I install this package application (Zebra_CoreScanner_Driverr_(64bit)_v3.07.0031.exe) manually, an interface is encountered and proceed with the Next buttons. How can I inject this into the Setup project I want to create?
Thanks,
Cenk

You can do silent installation of the corescanner
all the installshields for the scanners software follow the same silent installation process refer to the following

Thank you for your answer, Riad.
My client is asking me for quiet execution installation packaging. I don't know how to do this.
There is some terminal code in the website link you sent as a source. Is there a resource to teach me to package these on Visual Studio? Because you stated that you packaged it with Flexera InstallShield software. Unfortunately, I don't have an InstallShield license.
I've been researching how to make this a single .exe file and came across some resources on MSDN (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/visualstudio/visual-studio-2017/deployment/creating-bootstrapper-packages?view=vs-2017). I'm looking to see if I can add Zebra SDK to the Prerequisites section in Visual Studio. It has been stated that the "Product.xml" file is needed for special additions to Prerequisites. Do you have a file on this topic? Or do you have another resource to direct me to?
I also want to ask one more thing. Is it enough to install Zebra Driver or should I install the Zebra SDK?
Packaging using install shield is outside of our scope unfortunately . What I have suggested was that you use silent installation .
You provide you customer with the necessary files and batch script that will be used to install these packages without user interaction requirement .
Note that corescanner is part of the SDK package so you do not need to install it separately .
