Sorry, I'm not really sure what you're asking. But I used this as my guide: Running RunOnceEx from CD Hope that helps. Regards, eNuffSaid

I dont use RunOnceEx, I use GUIRunOnce. Regards, eNuffSaid

MovieMaker2, AcrobatReader, and MSN 6.1 install without problems start /wait %CDROM%\Software\MM2\mm20.msi /qn start /wait %CDROM%\Software\Applications\AdobeReader6\AR6.msi /QB start /wait %CDROM%\Software\MSN\MsnMsgs.msi /QB I'm also having problems with WinDVD start /wait %CDROM%\Software\Applications\WinDVD\Setup.exe -s -f1 "%CDROM%\Software\Applications\WinDVD\setup.iss" I think its because the %CDROM% variable is inside the quotes. But if I remove the quotes, it won't install either. Other than that, yes the only problems I'm having are with the .msi installers. I'm thinking its because they are being installed from ReadOnly media, but then why do other .msi packages install correctly. I use the 8.3 notation in my powertools because the .msi installer names are long and have spaces in them. If I remember correctly I've tried renaming them, and that would give problems during installation too. Thanks for any help. Kind regards, eNuffSaid

Hi I've made the switch from the $oem$\$\install to %CDROM%. Most apps run fine, but I'm have a few problems with: .NET, Calc PowerToy, and Task Switch Powertoy. They worked fine without modification in the $oem$\$\install situation. ECHO. ECHO Installing .NET Framework v1.1 ECHO Please wait... start /wait %CDROM%\Software\NetFramework\netfx.msi /qb I get a "Please insert the disk: Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1" error. ECHO. ECHO Installing Calculator Powertoy ECHO Please wait... start /wait %CDROM%\Software\PowerToysXP\Calcul~1.msi /qn ECHO. ECHO Installing Task Switcher Powertoy ECHO Please wait... start /wait %CDROM%\Software\PowerToysXP\Alt-Ta~1.msi /qn For both powertoys tools I get a file not found error. If I replace %CDROM% with D:\XPCD\ it will install fine. The %CDROM% variable maps to the correct drive letter. Why is this not working? Thanks for any help. Kind regards, eNuffSaid

Thanks folks. I'll look into the shell extension. Thanks for your replies. Kind regards, eNuffSaid

Hi, I was wondering if anybody would know how to add an icon to the right-click context menu. Just like the WinRAR icons you see there. Say I would like to add the little DOS-box icon to the "open command window here" context menu item, how would I go about doing this? Thanks, eNuffSaid

I used the following command during installation to set rights: ECHO. ECHO Setting File and Folder Permissions xcacls C:\PROGRA~1\Agent\Data /T /E /C /G Users:RC /Y However, when install completed, and I went to check the folder permissions, it would complain: "The permissions on Data are incorrectly ordered, which may cause some entries to be ineffective. Press OK to continue and sort the permissions correctly, or Cancel to reset the permissions." I found the following at MS: ACLs Are Incorrectly Ordered on Subfolders http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?...kb;en-us;322293 from the above link: RESOLUTION A supported fix is now available from Microsoft, but it is only intended to correct the problem that is described in this article. Apply it only to computers that are experiencing this specific problem. This fix may receive additional testing. Therefore, if you are not severely affected by this problem, Microsoft recommends that you wait for the next Windows XP service pack that contains this fix. To resolve this problem immediately, contact Microsoft Product Support Services to obtain the fix. I believe Microsoft have a VBScript which will let you set the permissions without screwing up the order, but they won't let you download it. If anybody has other suggestions why this is going wrong for me, I'd be very much interested. Kind regards, eNuffSaid EDIT: I'm aware that I'm using XCACLS and not CACLS, but I've tried both and the outcome is the same.
