    AIR app silent updater

    Hi im trying to figure out how I can update a .air app silently.



    I have these command lines to install air and the app silently...


    Command line install adobe air silently and allows air to update online if available
    & "c:\AdobeAIRInstaller.exe" -silent -pingbackAllowed


    install the actual air app
    & "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe AIR\Versions\1.0\Adobe AIR Application Installer.exe" -silent -location "C:\" "silientTester.air"


    But now Im trying to update silientTester.air silently.

    You can not just run... & "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe AIR\Versions\1.0\Adobe AIR Application Installer.exe" -silent -location "C:\" "silientTester.air"
    ..again as the documenation points out that...

    "You cannot use the silent installer option to update an installed AIR application. This is because the AIR installer
    cannot determine whether the version to be installed is newer than the installed version, and it would pose a
    security risk to downgrade the application."


    So any ideas on how I could install silientTester.air again .. but It needs to be silient as its a kiosk.

    Thanks
    Aidan
