About Product Licenses
Toad Editions products store their license key information in several ways:
1.
Toad for Sybase and Quest SQL Optimizer store the license files in the following
directories depending on the operating system.
Platform
License Location
Windows 2000, Windows XP,
Windows 2003
C:\Documents and Settings\All
Users\Application Data\Quest
Software\<Product_Name>\
Windows Vista, Windows 2008,
Windows 7
C:\ProgramData\Quest Software\<Product_
Name>\
2. Toad Data Modeler, Benchmark Factory for Databases and Spotlight on SQL Server store
the license key information in ProductLicenses.xml, located in the following directories,
depending on the operating systems.
Platform
License Location
Windows 2000, Windows XP,
Windows 2003
C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local
Settings\Application Data\Quest Software
Windows Vista, Windows 2008,
Windows 7
C:\Users\<
username>\AppData\Local\QuestSoftware
File Format
The format of the license file consists of two elements:
l
LicenseKey—This is the license key that was provided by Quest.
l
SiteMessage—This is also provided by Quest, and typically contains the name of the
customer and other asset information.
License Attributes for ProductLicenses.xml
The following describes the attributes for the license node:
l
ProductName—This is a case-sensitive text value that is assigned by Quest to
uniquely identify the product associated with the license key. ProductNames are not
likely to change between versions of the product. It is recommended that you do not
alter this attribute.
Toad for Sybase Edition Installation Guide
12
Installation
l
ProductVersion—This is a unique identifier for a specific version of a product. It is
typically only specific to the major version number (1.x). This means that all minor and
patch updates are still able to use this key. However it can be specified all the way down
to the build number if required by the product (1.0.0.13). Its primary purpose is to support
side-by-side installations for different versions of a product.
l
KeySaveDate—This is the date that the key was saved into the system. This is used
internally by the product for determining key priority when more than one suitable key is
found. It is interpreted as an OLE date type and is represented as a floating point number.
When performing a silent installation, or manually editing the ProductLicenses.xml file, it
is recommended that you omit this attribute. If this value is missing, the product
automatically updates this attribute with the file’s last modified date value.

Silent installation provides a convenient method for deploying Toad for Sybase to multiple
machines. With some customization, you can also deploy the license key and settings at the
same time. To perform a silent install, extract the .msi from the Quest Installer and use this for a
silent install.
Silent Installation Prerequisites
Before you perform a silent installation, you must install the following software on every
computer where you are installing Toad:
l
Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 (Service Pack 1)

target location for the extracted files by entering or browsing to a directory.
3. In the Product Selection page, select the products that you want to extract.
4. Click Extract to extract the files.
The Finish page has a link to the directory into which the files were extracted and a

Silent Installation
Create Transform (MST) Files
You can create a Microsoft transform (.mst) file that deploys the license key, custom settings, and
connections for users when performing a silent install using the .msi file. You can also use the
.msi file to perform a basic silent install using the default directory (or install to a Toad for
Sybase Installation Guide Installation different directory) and to specify command-line options
and default installation overrides. See "Perform Silent Installation Using MSI" (page 11) for more
information if you are not creating a transform file.
Note: (MSI installs on Windows Vista and 7) If you are using MSI to install Toad on Windows
Vista or 7 with UAC enabled, you can install a file that adds a "Run as administrator" option
when right-clicking the MSI file: http://www.symantec.com/connect/downloads/msi-runadministrator-context-menu-vista.
The following procedure uses the Wise Installer to create the transform file.
To create a transform file that includes custom Toad settings

sure the file extension is .key not .txt.
3. Launch Toad. The application should open without prompting you to enter a license key.

Configuration wizard. This wizard creates an initial settings file (Settings.xml).

msiexec.exe /i <path to msi file\ToadforSybase<version>SetupFull.msi>
REINSTALLMODE=vo REINSTALL=ALL

directory. For example:
msiexec /i "C:\Documents and Settings\johndoe\desktop\
ToadforSybaseSetupFull.msi REINSTALLMODE=vo REINSTALL=ALL
INSTALLDIR="C:\Programs\Quest Software\Toad for SQL Server 5.5\" /q /l*v

Extract MSI Files
In order to perform a silent install, you must first extract the MSI file from the Quest Installer.
The extraction log contains the command line parameters needed to perform default installations.
However, you may want to change parameters to fit your environment or standards. See
"Parameters for Silent Installations" (page 20) for more information.

are silently installing Toad products. The Quest Installer is only used to extract the
required MSI files.
To extract MSI files from the Quest Installer
1. Run your Toad bundle from the command prompt, including the correct path to the
directory where it resides and the /extract parameter. Since the executable contains
spaces, remember to include quotation marks.

directory where Toad Data Modeler should be installed, use INSTALLDIR=”PATH”.
(Otherwise, the default path is used.)
To specify the database platform where you want to install Toad Data Modeler or which
shortcuts should be created and where, use the ADDLOCAL parameter. If this parameter
is not used, a default installation is performed.
Example:
setup.msi /q INSTALLDIR="C:\Program Files\Quest Software\Toad Data

version
\ADDLOCAL=Complete,XPMANIFEST,SUPPORTDATABASES,SHORTCUTUNINSTALL,
