I have an application for which it has 2 msi's. I need to install it silently. But when I am using command " msiexec \i "Path of the setup.exe" ALLUSERS=1 \qb", It is showing a error that "application can't be opened".
Please help me out how to install it silently for multiple msi's.

You cannot launch an EXE with MSIExec. You need to create a set-up executable which launches MSIExec against each of the MSIs in turn:
| CODE |
| msiexec /i "Path_to_and_name_of_first_MSI" ALLUSERS=1 /qb msiexec /i "Path_to_and_name_of_second_MSI" ALLUSERS=1 /qb |
You have a variety of ways to create an executable. If you have a package authoring tool like Wise or InstallShield you can use those product's scripting language to create an EXE. Or you could create a simple batch file and convert that using one of the many utilities which you can find on the web, or you could create a script in some other language, such as VBScript, and convert that to an EXE.
