Install Docker Toolbox for Windows Automatically

Docker Toolbox for Windows have command line arguments which allows you to install it without user’s involvement.
You can run this command in Windows Command Prompt to get those arguments:
> Downloads\DockerToolbox.exe /HELP
The most useful arguments for automation are: /SILENT, /DIR, /COMPONENTS, and /TASKS.
To know what values for /COMPONENTS and /TASKS, you can run this command
> Downloads\DockerToolbox.exe /SAVEINF=docker_toolbox.inf
[Setup]
Lang=english
Dir=C:\Program Files\Docker Toolbox
Group=Docker
NoIcons=0
SetupType=full
Components=docker,dockermachine,dockercompose,virtualbox,kitematic,git
Tasks=desktopicon,modifypath,upgradevm
If VirtualBox is already installed and I don’t want to install Kitematic, I can run this command, or put the command into the script to skip them. The installation will be automated.
> Downloads\DockerToolbox.exe /COMPONENTS=docker,dockermachine,dockercompose,git /TASKS=desktopicon,modifypath,upgradevm
