Only if you use multiple windows. You can set the icon for each window.

This is to run my alternative RunOnceEx, so it starts installing. If it is not installed at the time of script execution, run the installer instead of the RunOnceEx.exe application.

Well, the something are the application entries needed to let Alternative RunOnceEx work, which will be added to the registry when running the BAT or CMD file which Alternative RunOnceEx Script Creator creates.

1. Try this: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced\Folder\SuperHidden] "Type"="checkbox" "Text"="@shell32.dll,-30508" "WarningIfNotDefault"="@shell32.dll,-28964" "HKeyRoot"=dword:80000001 "RegPath"="Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Explorer\\Advanced" "ValueName"="ShowSuperHidden" "CheckedValue"=dword:00000000 "UncheckedValue"=dword:00000001 "DefaultValue"=dword:00000001 "HelpID"="shell.hlp#51103" 2. I don't know.

You forgot the quotes in REG ADD %KEY% /V TITLE /D "( TITLE HERE ) /f. And this SHOULD work with mine too, if you do NOT use start /wait rundll32.exe iernonce.dll,RunOnceExProcess, but run the Alternative RunOnceEx installer ONLY ONCE AT THE END. After inserting the first window entry's in the registry, you must set the %KEY% to (...)\Ruby Software\RunOnceEx2, to define the secound window. That should work. Example: @echo off cmdow @ /HID SET KEY="HKLM\SOFTWARE\Ruby Software\RunOnceEx" REG ADD %KEY% /V TITLE /D "( TITLE HERE )" /f REG ADD %KEY%\035 /VE /D "Chipset Software Installation Utility" /f REG ADD %KEY%\035 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\APPS\FIRSTBOOT\chipsetupdate.exe /s" /f REG ADD %KEY%\035 /V 2 /D "%systemdrive%\install\PAUSE.CMD REG ADD %KEY%\040 /VE /D "Visual Communication Camera VGP-VCC3 Driver" /f REG ADD %KEY%\040 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\APPS\FIRSTBOOT\CAMERADRIVER.EXE" /f REG ADD %KEY%\040 /V 2 /D "%systemdrive%\install\PAUSE.CMD REG ADD %KEY%\045 /VE /D "Alps StickPointer Driver" /f REG ADD %KEY%\045 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\APPS\FIRSTBOOT\alpspointer.exe" /f REG ADD %KEY%\045 /V 2 /D "%systemdrive%\install\PAUSE.CMD REG ADD %KEY%\050 /VE /D "Sony Image FilterDriver" /f REG ADD %KEY%\050 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\APPS\FIRSTBOOT\imagefilter\SonyImageFilter.exe /s" /f REG ADD %KEY%\050 /V 2 /D "%systemdrive%\install\PAUSE.CMD REG ADD %KEY%\055 /VE /D "Programmable I/O Driver" /f REG ADD %KEY%\055 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\APPS\FIRSTBOOT\programmableio.exe" /f REG ADD %KEY%\055 /V 2 /D "%systemdrive%\install\PAUSE.CMD REG ADD %KEY%\060 /VE /D "Gunze Touch panel Driver" /f REG ADD %KEY%\060 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\APPS\FIRSTBOOT\touchpanel.exe" /f REG ADD %KEY%\060 /V 2 /D "%systemdrive%\install\PAUSE.CMD REG ADD %KEY%\065 /VE /D "Sony USB Mouse Driver" /f REG ADD %KEY%\065 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\APPS\FIRSTBOOT\mousedri.exe" /f REG ADD %KEY%\065 /V 2 /D "%systemdrive%\install\PAUSE.CMD REG ADD %KEY%\070 /VE /D "LAN-Express Software" /f REG ADD %KEY%\070 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\APPS\FIRSTBOOT\LANExpress.exe" /f REG ADD %KEY%\070 /V 2 /D "%systemdrive%\install\PAUSE.CMD REG ADD %KEY%\075 /VE /D "Sony Batt Check" /f REG ADD %KEY%\075 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\APPS\FIRSTBOOT\batcheck.exe" /f REG ADD %KEY%\075 /V 2 /D "%systemdrive%\install\PAUSE.CMD REG ADD %KEY%\080 /VE /D "Setting Utility Series" /f REG ADD %KEY%\080 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\APPS\FIRSTBOOT\SUS.exe" /f REG ADD %KEY%\080 /V 2 /D "%systemdrive%\install\PAUSE.CMD REG ADD %KEY%\085 /VE /D "Sony Shared Library" /f REG ADD %KEY%\085 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\APPS\FIRSTBOOT\sharedlibrary.exe" /f REG ADD %KEY%\085 /V 2 /D "%systemdrive%\install\PAUSE.CMD REG ADD %KEY%\090 /VE /D "Sony Utilities DLL" /f REG ADD %KEY%\090 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\APPS\FIRSTBOOT\utildll.exe" /f REG ADD %KEY%\090 /V 2 /D "%systemdrive%\install\PAUSE.CMD SET KEY="HKLM\SOFTWARE\Ruby Software\RunOnceEx2" REG ADD %KEY% /V TITLE /D " ( SECOND WINDOW TITLE HERE )" /f REG ADD %KEY%\005 /VE /D "Vaio Control Center" /f REG ADD %KEY%\005 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\APPS\FIRSTBOOT\controlcenter.exe" /f REG ADD %KEY%\005 /V 2 /D "%systemdrive%\install\PAUSE.CMD REG ADD %KEY%\010 /VE /D "Vaio Event Service" /f REG ADD %KEY%\010 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\APPS\FIRSTBOOT\VES.exe" /f REG ADD %KEY%\010 /V 2 /D "%systemdrive%\install\PAUSE.CMD REG ADD %KEY%\015 /VE /D "Vaio Powermanagment" /f REG ADD %KEY%\015 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\APPS\FIRSTBOOT\powermgr.exe" /f REG ADD %KEY%\015 /V 2 /D "%systemdrive%\install\PAUSE.CMD REG ADD %KEY%\020 /VE /D "Special Button Utility" /f REG ADD %KEY%\020 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\APPS\FIRSTBOOT\SBU.exe" /f REG ADD %KEY%\020 /V 2 /D "%systemdrive%\install\PAUSE.CMD REG ADD %KEY%\025 /VE /D "Vaio Touch Launcher" /f REG ADD %KEY%\025 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\APPS\FIRSTBOOT\VTL.exe" /f REG ADD %KEY%\025 /V 2 /D "%systemdrive%\install\PAUSE.CMD RunOnceEx EXIT

No problem.

I've just uploaded a new version (1.6). Does this fix your problem? If you're NOT using this for an unattended installation: Remove the registry value for Alternative RunOnceEx in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run first!

That secound window should NOT install your applications again, it should only add this RunOnceEx to the RunOnce registry key. If that's all what happens, I can't fix it.

Found a way to fix that DPI issue. Now uploading version 1.0.1. (build 64).

I'm now trying to fix this 'DPI issue'.

Then, your DPI setting is wrong. That must be set to 96.

That could be because your screen resolution is 800x600. You need to set the screen resolution to at least 1024x768.

Not yet. Edit: Fixed. See first post.

Make a batch file which sets the %TEMP% and %TMP% environment variables, and add it to HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run.

You aren't doing anything wrong. Windows just starts after RunOnceEx.exe is finished, but that RunOnceEx calls itself again because another window must be loaded. Windows doesn't wait for that other instance of RunOnceEx.exe which is running. I'll try to fix this.
