  1. Ha, that's a good idea. I'll experiment a bit with it. It's largely irrelevant, but I always like to do things in the cleanest possible way.
  2. I got it. It was this: else set language=. After changing it to set language="", it worked. Apparently what I originally did didn't set the variable empty, but rather removed it alltogether (which I did notice when simply typing set, but didn't understand what was going on). Jaclaz, you are probably right, but I didn't mention there was one more (might be even more in future if I bother with this stuff further) similar copy operation below. I did it like this to save a few lines. I wish I wasn't so dumb when it comes to anything even remotely related to scripting/programming, but I just can't wrap my brains around it. No sh.. I failed even at such simple thing as Turbo Pascal 20 years ago
  3. My head is about to explode. Despite writing it just like it says in help, it doesn't work. if exist d:\win7\boot\cs-cz\nul (set language=cz) else set language= if %language%==cz ( copy e:\unattended\AeroNoBackground-cz.theme d:\win7\sources\$OEM$\$$\resources\themes\AeroNoBackground.theme ) else copy e:\unattended\AeroNoBackground.theme d:\win7\sources\$OEM$\$$\resources\themes When I run it, I always get an error saying "( was unexpected at this time.". I don't get it. Please help.
  4. I started using this again, and was curious whether there was any other way to make wiminfo pause other than doing it with powershell. The window just flashes and disappears
  5. Is there any way to automate the process of relocating the location of libraries like documents, music and the rest? I have all this stuff on different disk, and would prefer if I could do this during the installation process.
  6. I really like WinRAR, but truth be told, even with the new format, it's still nothing awesome (but then again, it's not a problem for me). I use it solely because of the interface. If you absolutely need better compression, 7-Zip is the winner hands down.
  7. Haha, you reminded me how I got permanently banned from Opera forums after repeatedly complaining about some thing the changed over the course of v12 version history.
  8. I am sure 7-zip doesn't require a reboot for anything.
  9. @Bobbymat26 Just download Windows AIK and throw the answer file at it. It will tell you exactly what is or isn't correct.
  10. As a side note, I would be interested in "third party" software that is intended to replace CHKDSK (i.e. that can fix NTFS filesystem errors). jaclaz There are lots of programs for disk checking out there. Not sure where are you getting the intent part, because I am not aware of anything presented as such P.S. I just remembered Norton Utilities back in Win9x days. Loved those.
  11. I used Opera since like... 2003. I was always mostly happy with it, even thought in last two years I got more and more fed up with certain websites not being displayed properly, and certain functionalities not working. BUT when I tried v15 (is that where they switched to Chrome? I think so), I was horrified. It was the final drop that made me try Firefox after years of being refusive of it, and my life quality went up by like 500% that day. Honestly, Opera is not walking in wrong direction. It is already flushed down a toilet.
  12. The sector size probably doesn't make any difference on SSDs though.
  13. Would using third party software help in this case, or are they all working off some generic API (like defragmentation does for example), which is bugged?
  14. If only they bothered to have all relevant informations in one place. Anyway... how do I know if my SSD has 4kB sectors? Or, where do I read up on this?
  15. Jesus, so much arrogance and idiocy... But I am not surprised, it's Microsoft.
  16. Yeah I know how it works, I was just unsure because the Microsoft link only mentioned creating the partitions, but not doing anything with them, which kinda confused me and I thought maybe it was not necessary for UEFI (which wouldn't make any sense though).
  17. When installing Windows in UEFI mode, do I need to format the two system partitions in any way? I am reading this, and it only covers the creation (and for some reason they say the first partition should be 200MB, but everywhere I look it's usually only 100).
  18. This has never ever happened to me. Maybe it's your PC.
  19. Do not use bugged programs. Google Win Toolkit up and use that.
  20. Is there any switch I can use with msi installer that would let me disable automatic updates? I figured they apparently silently install Google Chrome and toolbar, which royally pissed me off.
  21. It didn't give me any problems with integrated IE11 here. Apparently it's a bit on the random side.
  22. Did you even read the previous posts? None of the switches after /s do anything.
