no theres a folder on my desktop called "Special Folder Icons" it gets put there by XPize and my cleanup wont delete if for some reason, any ideas on the IE file too ????

but thank you all for your input ~twizt3d <topic can be closed>

after a deeper analysis on this topic I have decided doing an upgrade install of the same cd would be a bad idea seeing as i reformat the drive anyway lol, so scrap this idea.

point taken, was just trying to find a fast answer, 2 more problems, the dir Special Icon Folders and the Internet Explorer icon werent removed, the folder i have no idea why, but IE, Im not sure thats a link, that mite be acopy of teh exe, since i use firefox i have no use for the icon either way, and a simple tap on the delete key gets rid of it, there has to be a way to remove it, any ideas?

hmmm, ya I guess that would be why, thnx man

Something doesnt work with my cleanup.cmd file, it will run, but comes up saying windows cannot find any of the files in it, and they are there, can anyone help me? I think it found the first 2 actually, but nothing else. @echo off DEL "%AllUsersProfile%\Start Menu\Set Program Access and Defaults.lnk" DEL "%AllUsersProfile%\Start Menu\Windows Catalog.lnk" DEL "%AllUsersProfile%\Start Menu\Programs\SlySoft\AnyDVD\AnyDVD.Ink" DEL "%AllUsersProfile%\Start Menu\Programs\SlySoft\AnyDVD\Register AnyDVD.Ink" DEL "%AllUsersProfile%\Desktop\Internet Explorer.lnk" DEL "%AllUsersProfile%\Desktop\AnyDVD.lnk" DEL "%AllUsersProfile%\Desktop\Nero StartSmart.lnk" DEL "%AllUsersProfile%\Desktop\CyberLink PowerDVD.lnk" DEL "%AllUsersProfile%\Desktop\AnyDVD.lnk" RD /S /Q "%AllUsersProfile%\Desktop\Special Folder Icons" DEL "%APPDATA%\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\IsoBuster.Ink" DEL "%APPDATA%\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\Nero StartSmart.Ink" DEL "%APPDATA%\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\Launch Internet Explorer Browser.Ink" DEL "%systemdrive%\bootlogo.cmd" DEL "%systemdrive%\start.cmd" DEL "%systemdrive%\fonts.exe" DEL "%systemdrive%\xpize.exe" EXIT

I figured this out, heres the information for anyone else interesed. People have wondered how to remove keys and values from the registry simply by importing a registry file. All that needs to be done to achieve this is the insert a hyphen, -, in front of the "H" in HKEY....... [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft] would delete the entire Microsoft key from this location. In order to just delete a value the syntax is to set the value equal to Hyphen, -. [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft] "VALUE"=- Would delete "VALUE" from this area of the registry.

yes I have seen the error in my scripting, but this is an error in the source that is released on bittorrent.com, Im trying to fix it, but im not very good with python, i do java myself, I found one of the errors, but it was just a typo and im not sure what the deminsion should be, im still working on it tho... It seems the source that brahm has released is not the one that he uses on his installer. Im also working on removing all "donate" refrences.

How do I stop something from loading with windows, I know the reg key is [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run] and to remove it you do [-HKEY_LOCAL............] but what if I want to just remove one line from under it, like only stop one program, i dont want to delete the whole key....

Ok all you people asking for the origional bittorrent forgot one very important thing, ITS OPEN SOURCE!!! you can make your own ::official:: installer to do what ever you want using python... now I bet half the people here have no idea how to do that so fear not, I have made the official BitTorrent 3.4.2 Switchless installer, My installer doesnt say you installed blah blah blah, and it doesnt install or load the html file at all. If there is interest I will make a switchless installer for 3.9.x the beta for 4, I will make one for 4 when it comes out... ~twizt http://www.twizt3d.com/files/BitTorrent-3.4.2.exe <-Switchless to run it you can modify this to fit your batch file, or run this as a batchfile to test the installer. @echo off title Installing BitTorrent 3.4.2 Switchless Edition by Twizt3d DesignZ ECHO Windows will now install additional programs onto your computer.

<bump>

dumb question but where do i get the updated antiviruses and live update and stuff? and how do i slipstream nis with the antivirus defs?

Hello all, after searching for an unattended switch for anydvd i have failed to find any, I do not fully understand the switches in detail about rebooting and i think that anydvd requires a no reboot switch. Also, can someone please explain the difference between /s /S /silent /verysilent /VERYSILENT /q /quit, they all seem to do the same thing in my mind. Also back to the anydvd topic, I have already figured out how to register it, it was a very complicated process that required 3 .bat files, but when you run 2 in the correct order it registers, So i made a 3rd file tht ran the 2 in order using /w and it works fine, i will post my methods if need be.

personally i use dbpoweramp www.dbpoweramp.com, for ripping music, lots of cool settings and no protection. But as we have all stated, your "backed up" music is worthless rite now, unless you can find a way to crack the protection. Your best option is re-ripping your collection.

any other thoughts on this?

well before you do anything, could you tell me where you got your release of windows xt lol?

thankyou for the reply but maybe i should clarify my question, I dont want to upgrade windows through dos, I want to modify the setup.exe file so that when run through windows <the autorun menu> when you click on install windows xp, it installs it unattended. I think that I can modify the unattended.bat file generated with setupmngr to make this work, but im having problems doing this, any additional help is apreciated.

no one has any ideas on this???? Im getting desperate...

anyone have any ideas about this?
