I want to install the DirectX 9c user package in quiet mode. Is there any option like /quiet /q /qb etc. None of these worked.

Note:

With this file DXSETUP.exe /q

not the extractor file directx_9c_redist.exe /q ( this works fine.)

Try this (taken from MSDN):

Set up silently. Launch setup in silent mode so that users do not accidentally skip updating the DirectX runtime. You can do this by launching dxsetup.exe with the following command: path-to-redistributable\dxsetup.exe /silent or by calling DirectSetup and not showing any UI.
