first of all, this might be a problem of understanding from my side.
In the past I liked using the -Silent switch with Show-ADTInstallationWelcome (or the v3 equivalent) to just silently kill apps (without showing deferrals, countdowns etc.).
But it seems that (now?) it does force the whole install session into silent mode and all following commandlets to not output anything aswell, like Show-ADTInstallationProgress - at least if none of the specified processes are running.
Is that expected behaviour? Is there any way around it?
