MSI installer switches and parameters

I want to use a custom action (MSI installer) and force the installation or re-installation without end user interaction.
I have successfully made the install work with parameters /quiet /passive
However I can not get the re-install to work without user interaction.

Here is the custom action I wish to execute (or its equivalent)

msiexec /fo application.msi

Any ideas?

What about using the “Install MSI package” custom action and using the “AdditionalParameters” field for /fo ?

When I use /fo as AdditionalParameters, I receive the following error when the install is run on client machine

Windows Installer V 5.0.7601.17514
error

msiexec /Options [Optional Parameter]

etc …
 
Could you please post the parameters you used for the custom action?
Or copy it to the clipboard and paste its XML content here.
 
Here is the xml code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
TMSIExecInfoInstall MSI package: "%DESTPATH%\CRRuntime_32bit_13_0_9.msi"45%DESTPATH%\CRRuntime_32bit_13_0_9.msi/foFalse
