HP SoftPaq Unpack Switches

Here’s a quick tip for unpacking HP SoftPaq drivers:

* "SPxxxxx.exe is the SoftPaq filename to unpack

* "-pdf" is a runtime switch that overrides the build parameters

* "-f" is a runtime switch that overrides the default path set at build time

* "-s" instructs the package to unpack in silent mode, skipping the Welcome, License, and Directory screens

* "-e" instructs the package to extract only, that is, do not run the component installation program.


One example:

SP4242423.exe -pdf -f -e C:\Temp\drivers\
