Hey Andrew!

I have never seen /launchbrowser=0 before. Can you tell me where you got this information, and have you tried it successfully in earlier versions?

For your use case (not launching the browser after installation) I think that /S can be used instead to start a silent installation without a UI (not /silent). The full documentation for officially supported commandline options can be found here.

Hi, Max!

Can't remember, where i'd got info about this key...
I'm writing some batch "silent install" for myself, and previous versions (cant fix, what version - aldeady had delete them all) had installed fine with this key.
Many times, cause my tool writing is in process.
Some days ago I'd downloaded most recent installer, and discovered, that FF starts after installation.

Thank You for commandline options link!!!

I assume it works for you with the command line parameter /S instead of /silent. It is documented that way, so I am closing this bug as invalid. Let me know if it still does not work for you.
