I have created a project which includs 2 projects, one is setup project, other is vsto and i have added output of vsto in setup project.

i want to install both files in silent mode , for the execution of vsto in silent mode i write code in installer class as:

System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(pathofvsto,"/q");

and when i write command for executing setup as:

msiexec /i setup /q

it will execute setup.exe in silent mode. but it shows windows for installing vsto.
i want to install vsto in silent mode.

What happens? It works just like normal install? Elaborate more.

yes it works just like normal install but for setup which is installed sucessfully in silent mode.
but after installing setup there should be the silent installation of vsto because of statement System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(pathofvsto,"/q");
but its not happening and showing gui for installation.

Use /s for VSTO, Process.Start(pathofvsto,"/s")

Try using /quiet /qn
