I hope I am not duplicating another post. I couldn't find another topic that answered my question.

When I specify /nolicense and /recommeded in the arguments file. I get the desired response of autoselection of recommended items.

However, if I specify an answer file in the argumenst file such as /answerfile:default.aaf.

It will override the autoselection of both the critical and recommended sections.

Not sure what I am missing.

Many thanks for your fine work on a great piece of software.

That's the way it should work: if you give it an answer file, you are telling it exactly which updates to install.

OK I was hoping I could let it autoselect whatever hadn't been loaded in the upper sections and specify some of the addons and registry settings.

You would need to run it twice (in a batch file if you want) to do that. I would have it first apply ONLY the reg settings with the answer file and a noreboot flag, then have it install the updates without an answer file, and let it reboot.
