And don't forget this one: [Components] NetOc = On this will make winnt.sif process the NetOptionalComponents section.

I think it's the "DefaultThemesOff = Yes" line. Setting it to Yes means that you want to use the Classic-theme. This is what I have for the Royal theme, and it works: CustomDefaultThemeFile=%WinDir%\Resources\Themes\Royale.theme DefaultStartPanelOff=No DefaultThemesOff=No

RTM = Released To Manufacturers aka final, done, finito

is the ADD REG code still good or does it also have to have 2 \'s? It also needs the two slashes: REG ADD "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce" /V Cleanup /D "cmd.exe /C RD %systemdrive%\\install /S /Q"

Afaik, you will have to start over again if you've removed something with nLite, but you might want to ask it in the nLite forum

Yes it does, but there are still people that don't use SP2 B)

* Me nods to the Unattended page...

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced] "Start_ShowHelp"=dword:00000000 "Start_ShowNetConn"=dword:00000001 Use HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop instead. [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\VisualEffects\MenuAnimation] "DefaultValue"=dword:00000000 "DefaultApplied"=dword:00000000 You can add these all to hkcu.reg, so they will be applied on first logon (and to all users).

This one's easy The point is, you're adding a value called Cleanup to the registry. What you're doing is first adding the value Cleanup, with the contens "cmd /C RD %systemdrive%\\install /S /Q". After that, you're adding the same value again (thus overwriting the previous value) with some other contents. I think I'm explaining it a bit too difficult, but here's what you gotta do: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce] "Cleanup1"="cmd /C RD %systemdrive%\\install /S /Q" "Cleanup2"="cmd /C RD %systemdrive%\\drivers /S /Q" Now, first the command of Cleanup1 will be executed, and after that the command of Cleanup2. If you want to add more vaules, just name them Cleanup3, Cleanup4, etc. Hope you got it all sorted out now

Well, the code looks right to me. If the code worked, you should see a command window for a brief moment after you logon. Also, you can make sure that the value was really imported by opening regedit and navigating to the key. Note that if the command was imported and executed, the value is probably gone (you will have to import the reg file again just to see if the value gets added to the registry). @kenedy: you got a point there, forgot to mention that you might have to use 2 slashes. Good luck, I'll be back in about 2 hours.

Add this to a reg file: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce] "Cleanup"="cmd.exe /C RD %systemdrive%\install /S /Q" And then make sure you import it to the registry somewhere. You can also use this code from a batch file: REG ADD "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce" /V Cleanup /D "cmd.exe /C RD %systemdrive%\install /S /Q" I believe that should work

I think it's better to use RD (remove directory). RD %systemdrive%\install /S /Q Also, I'm not sure if you can use it from that batch file, since that batch file is probably in the folder you're trying to delete. If it doesn't work, you can try to add it to the registry (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce). Then it will run on next logon.

Some basic things of what you can delete can be found here: http://www.unattended.msfn.org/xp/space_saving_tips.htm Furthermore, there are a few guides on how to reduce the source, for example: http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=9478 Also, nuhi has developed a tool called nLite to remove things you don't need: http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showforum=89

For the "Setup will finish in approx x min" text, open up WINNT32U.DLL in Resource Hacker, expand String Table, expand 67 and select 10xx (where xx is a number, for example 43 for Dutch). Then edit string 1064 and 1065 to you likings. Make sure you makecab it, because WINNT32U.DL_ needs to be replaced too. I'm not sure if it is neccesary, but you can do the same for WINNT32A.DLL (both files look pretty much the same, and I think noone found out yet what the difference is between the two).

The command you get from the wizard is just an example sentence. That's the sentence you have to use to start the setup using the transform. So all you do is copy that sentence, edit it as appropriate, and put it in your cmd. For example: start /wait %SystemDrive%\Install\Applications\OfficeXP\setup.exe TRANSFORMS=%SystemDrive%\Install\Applications\OfficeXP\Unattended.MST /qb-

Move WaitToKillServiceTimeout to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control. Like others said, this isn't a registry tweak, it's the code that the "Show Desktop"-icon uses to toggle the desktop (open up the file in notepad and you see exactly the same code). The "Shop Desktop"-icon is by default shown in the "Quick Launch"-bar, so you can remove that tweak alltogether. These are the same tweaks, just commented differently. Note that this tweak is right in XP (SP1), but in SP2, you will have to use SFCSetting instead of SFCDisable. Remove the "LinksFolderName"=- line. Replace "" with @. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Well, I believe that's it. Happy tweaking

This one works for me: [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\WebView\BarricadedFolders] "shell:ControlPanelFolder"=dword:00000000 "shell:ProgramFiles"=dword:00000000 "shell:System"=dword:0000000 "shell:SystemDriveRootFolder"=dword:00000000 "shell:Windows"=dword:00000000 Note: if you want to use the Category View in Control Panel, set shell:ControlPanelFolder to 1 instead of 0.

Alright, nvm then

Right, RyanVM explained it, I'm not going to repeat him. I'm sorry if my post came over as a bit attacking, it wasn't meant that way

Why don't you read the Unattended page on OEM folders? it explains everything clearly.

Thanks for the credits buletov Like buletov says, this is normal behavior. You can remove OOBE (which is the animation and the wizard you would normally get) by using GOSH's guide.

If you apply the tweak with cmdlines.txt, you can use HKEY_CURRENT_USER, because then it is applied for the default account, thus applying it to every new account created.

It's intro.wm_ (WMV file), and it's located in the I386 dir. If you want to change the music, replace title.wm_ (WMA file).
