    nLite - Windows reduction tool

    in nLite

    Posted

    @CuBie, i'll see about defragmenter...sndvol icon is in old multimedia apps (cdplayer and mplayer), who needs icon when it's in the taskbar for starters but good noticing

    Hidden folder, don't know...probably some experimental option you chosen.

    Keep box...images...ok...going to check that, that option hasn't been fully tested.

    Shortcuts not working...first time i hear that...did you removed ie or something...hmm must check that...you can tell me details on email so we can fix it

    Thanx for detailed description, very helpful

    edit: CuBie, check if bliss.jpg is in your system32 folder

    I've checked and bliss.jpg is being put into the system32 folder (Should be in system32\web..)!

    Also, i checked about the ftp:// and http:// in run and shortcuts.. I said eirler that none work (mms://, telnet://).. This is wrong.. Only ftp:// and http:// dont work...

    Im sure it has somthing to do with the registry - does nLite edit the hives?

    Chris.

    Edit:

    Okay, i've noticed some more things, although i didnt tell it to remove Internet Explorer the icon has been removed from the "Quick Launch" bar AND the start menu...

    Also i done a bit of digging around the registry, this is the key that somehow nLite has managed to remove for http://, ftp:// and i think just about any url that is handled by IE..

    [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\<<HANDLER>>\shell\open\command]

    @="\"C:\\Program Files\\Internet Explorer\\iexplore.exe\" -nohome"

    (<<HANDLER>> is each one, https, http, ftp.. etc)

    Anyway lets kick these bug's a**'s! lol :)

    nLite - Windows reduction tool

    in nLite

    I just installed using the latest version.. I *DIDNT* check to remote sndvol32 (Volume control) or Disk Defragmentor (dfrg.msc).. On first look i thought it had removed them.. (Im running the installation of xp that was slimmed down by nLite now).. But on closer inspection the icons were just missing...

    Also there was a folder in the control panel, i dont know what it was.. But it had the icon of a "Hidden folder".. I just right clicked on it and pressed remove..

    1 more thing: I added bliss.jpg to the "non-remove" list in nLite, yet, it still removed it!

    Just thought i should tell ya of these bug(s).. There easy to fix by hand!

    Keep up the superb work with nLite!

    Chris!

    Edit: - Reguarding the Bliss.jpg.. i just checked and nLite didnt delete it like i asked it to, but it didnt get copyed over to the cd during the installation!

    Edit2 - Found another bug.. the http:// url handler wont work.. If i goto start click run and type a url it wont work or if i try to create a shortcut with a url :)

    -- This is the same for any url handler in run or shortcut, ftp, telnet, mms, anything..

    Use a old pc as a wireless router

    Thanks for the information, but i was thinking more Windows Based.. So i could use ISA..

    Would this work?:

    [Net]-[server Router With ISA]-[WAP]-[Computers]

    The net goes into the Server via a network card and out via a network card set to Share Internet Connection....

    thanks Alot!

    Dont the key gens generate keys from a base key therefor there pid's will be similar or somthing? So although they may be valid they wont work (in sp2).. because of the pid's?

    Just a guess.. Dont know much about this.

    Chris.  :)

    Yes the ones based on the Devils 0wn, you all remember the dreaded fck** key, this is what the first program was based on and those are the ones with the 64* PID's. Now Microsoft is supposedly going to block these because they don't issue keys that generate them, or that was the origonal intention of the SP2 PID checking. As to if they will keep it, highly doubtful due to all the issues related to it. So I guess we will have to wait and see.

    ah Thats what i thought!

    Try this on for size, any keys made by the devils own files and/or Keygen will not work.  Hope this clears it up.

    This is not a fact, because it may generate valid corporate keys! :rolleyes:
