Installing Aptana Studio in passive mode bypasses the installation of Git for Windows and Node.js.

Aptana_Studio_3_Setup_3.6.1 /passive /norestart

(I am unsure whether Aptana Studio will work properly without those "prerequisites", but it appears to.)

If you want a global installation in a specific directory, the command line is

Aptana_Studio_3_Setup_3.6.1.exe /passive /norestart ALLUSERS=1 APPDIR=c:\apps\AptanaStudio

Install NODE JS on windows before installing aptana  Try the following link http   blueashes com 2011 web-development install-nodejs-on-windows

I had this issue and it was because of limited internet connection to source  You can use a proxy  VPN  but the better solution is download manually NodeJs from the source https   nodejs org download  and Git  too    after installation manually  aptana will check if they installed or not

Most of us will run into this problem  This can be solved by installing NodeJS from http   go aptana com installer nodejs windows  My Aptana installation installed the GIT automatically but if you still find trouble then I would suggest to install the GIT latest version yourself and rerun the Aptana installation

Right click the installer and choose  Run as administrator   I suspect it needs administrator account to download and install Node JS during installation

It seems having msysgit  Git for Windows  installed is causing the problem   In most cases you ll have a pretty recent version of Git for Windows installed  Cited from https   code google com p tortoisegit       There was a security issue in Git  see here  Git for Windows  lt  1 9 5 is affected - so you should update  TortoiseGit itself is not affected  using the default configuration  only if libgit2 is manually enabled for checkout fetching   TortoiseGit 1 8 13 0 includes all fixes    But it seems Aptana Studio Installer won t accept any pre-installed version of Git for Windows   What you need to do      Uninstall Git for Windows    Install Aptana Studio  Apanta Studio 3 6 1 will install Git for Windows 1 8 4-preview20130916    Download latest version of Git for Windows from http   msysgit github io     Install latest version of Git for Windows  The outdated Git for Windows 1 8 4-preview20130916 will be updated to recent version    That s it

If your issue is related to a failed Windows install   and you are receiving a message related to installer  jsnode windows msi CRC error      Aptana Studio  Aptana Studio 3  build  3 6 1 201410201044  currently   requires Nodejs 0 5 XX-0 11 xx   Even though the current release of nodejs seems to be 5 X X     Apparently there will be a new release in Nov 2015 that corrects this defect   Pre-installing x0 10 36-x64 allowed me to proceed with a successful install    If version numbers can be believed    this seems to be an ancient release of nodejs    but hey - I saw a very impressive demo of Aptana Studio and really wanted to install it   -   I also pre-installed GIT for windows    but I m not sure if that was necessary or not
