Switches
Current MSI Switches used: /i /qn AUTHCODE="CODE-GOES-HERE" COMPANYNAME="Tufts University"
Modifications
The MSI's used in this template were extracted from the EXE's located at \\titan\software$\fsp\SPSS\SPSS 21\
This was done by launching the EXE (SPSS_Statistics_21_win32.exe or ...win64.exe) and doing then running a file search on the local system for "IBM SPSS Statistics 21.msi". If that fails to show results, try searching the disk for *.msi or and then sort by date & time modified.
The In Windows 7 the decompressed files will most likely be found in a folder under the current users directory in \AppData\Local\Temp\
You will need the entire folder that the MSI is located in, not just the MSI itself.
