[Change the volume image flags values]

Hi

 

I am using Windows 8.1 Update and Windows ADK.

 

Without using the ImageX command, how do I change the volume image flags values displayed with the Dism /Get-ImageInfo /ImageFile:"<WIM_File_Path>\<WIM_Name.wim" /Index:<Image_Index> command?

 

Where are these values ​​stored?

 

Thanks

[[Win 8.1] Coping iso file and mounting problem]

Hi

 

I am using Windows 8.1 Update Enterprise 64 bit and Windows ADK.

 

I noticed that, if I select the "Environment of the deployment tools and creations images" and I click on the "Run as Administrator" item of his Pop-Up menu and I mount on a iso image of windows 8.1 Update, when I run the command

 

robocopy <Drive_Letter>:\"<Windows_Files_Path>" /e

 

to copy all its files in a directory and the command

 

dism /Mount-Image /ImageFile:"<Windows_Files_Path>"\install.wim /Index:<Image_Index> /MountDir:"<Mount_Directory_Path>"

 

to mount an image volume, this error appears:

 

Error: 0xc1510111Not have permission to mount and modify this image.

 

However, if I copy these files through the "file explorer" window, the mounting of this volume image is working properly. How come?

 

Thanks

[[Win8.1] Choice of edition and serial integration in the iso]

Use an Autounattend.xml file for each edition. The only real way to do what you want is to create a custom boot.wim that has a program (or script/batch) that launches first. Then you choose your option and it will launch setup with the appropriate unattend file. See here for reference (this topic uses WinRE to launch setup)

http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/142990-installing-windows-7-from-recovery-partition/?p=918385

I thought that, if I insert the ei.cfg file

[Channel]Retail[VL]0

in the sources directory in my iso, I could choose the retail edition to install. That's right?

Instead, how do I create the file Autounattend.xml to insert my two serial numbers that correspond to those of the Core and Professional?

Inject your serial with dism into each edition

dism /Image:<path_to_mounted_image> /Set-ProductKey:12345-12345-12345-12345-12345

Then use sources\ei.cfg to skip serial entering dialog

[Channel]Retail[VL]0

The DISM command mentioned above can be applied to each volume image stored in the file install.wim? If so, how do I do this?

Thanks

[[Win8.1] Choice of edition and serial integration in the iso]

Since the Windows Update 8.1 Update (Multiple Editions) MSDN iso includes the retail editions of the Core and Professional, how I should do to change this iso so that, during the installation, allow me to choose which edition to install?

 

In addition, I would include in this iso my two serial numbers of installation (one for the Core and the other for the Professional) so that I should not insert any serial number during installation.

 

So, what should I do to reach my goal?

 

Thanks

[Adding an directories group to default directories in Windows Search 4]

[Adding few directories to default directories of Windows Search]

http://lmgtfy.com/?q=add+folder+to+windows+search

Please search before posting. This is your last warning.

Excuse me, but, when I click on "new index", my additional directories disappear and only the default directory of the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows Search\CrawlScopeManager\Windows\SystemIndex\DefaultRules keys of the Windows registry are reintroduced. In other words, I might add, permanently, some additional directories to those keys.

[Installing Windows 7 in three partitions]

HI

Should I create a custom DVD of Windows 7 (all editions) to force the creation of three partitions: a boot partition, a system partition (C ) and a data partition (D) to automatically save the users directories in D:\Users\<Name-user-account>.

The boot partition must be set to 100MB. Instead, the size of the other two partitions must be set directly by the person who will install Windows 7.

So, how do I create this DVD?

[SetupComplete.cmd and files not deleted]

HI

I wrote this RemovePending.vbs script used to delete multiple files at the end of a custom installation of Vista SP2 and, then, I inserted, in the SetupComplete.cmd file, the calls to this vbs script. Namely:

Option Explicit
Dim objFSO, objReg, objArgs
Dim objFile, objFolder, objSubFolder
Dim arrObjects, arrOldObjects, strKill

Const HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE = &H80000002

Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set objArgs = Wscript.Arguments
Set objReg = GetObject("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\root\default:StdRegProv")

objReg.GetMultiStringValue HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, "SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager", "PendingFileRenameOperations", ArrOldObjects
If isArray(arrOldObjects) Then strKill = Join(arrOldObjects, vbTab)

If objArgs.Count = 0 Then
	Wscript.Echo	"Script for scheduling files and folders for removal at next boot" & vbCrLf &_
			"Syntax: RemovePending.vbs c:\folder"
	Wscript.Quit
End If


If objFSO.FolderExists(objArgs(0)) Then
	DeleteFolder objArgs(0)
ElseIf objFSO.FileExists(objArgs(0)) Then
	KillObject(objArgs(0))
Else
	Wscript.Echo "Can't find path: " & objArgs(0)
	Wscript.Quit
End If


arrObjects = Split(strKill, vbTab)
objReg.SetMultiStringValue HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, "SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager", "PendingFileRenameOperations", ArrObjects
If Err.number = 0 Then
	Wscript.Echo objArgs(0) & " was scheduled for removal at next boot."
Else
	Wscript.Echo "Could not schedule object for removal" & vbCrLf & "Error: " & Err.Number & " " & Err.Description 
End If

Private Sub DeleteFolder(strFolder)
	Set objFolder = objFSO.GetFolder(strFolder)
	For Each objSubFolder In objFolder.SubFolders
		DeleteFolder(objSubFolder.Path)
	Next
	For Each objFile In objFolder.Files
		objFSO.GetFile(objFile).Attributes = 0
		KillObject objFile.Path
	Next
	objFSO.GetFolder(strFolder).Attributes = 0
	KillObject strFolder
End Sub


Sub KillObject(strObject)
	If Len(strKill) > 0 Then strKill = strKill & vbTab
	strKill = strKill & "\??\" & strObject
	strKill = strKill & vbTab
End Sub

and, at the end of the SetupComplete.cmd file, I wrote:

cscript %windir%\Setup\Scripts\RemovePending.vbs %windir%\Setup\Scripts
cscript %windir%\Setup\Scripts\RemovePending.vbs %windir%\setupact.log
cscript %windir%\Setup\Scripts\RemovePending.vbs %windir%\Logs\DPX\setupact.log
cscript %windir%\Setup\Scripts\RemovePending.vbs %windir%\Panther\setupact.log
cscript %windir%\Setup\Scripts\RemovePending.vbs %windir%\Panther\UnattendGC\setupact.log
cscript %windir%\Setup\Scripts\RemovePending.vbs %windir%\setuperr.log
cscript %windir%\Setup\Scripts\RemovePending.vbs %windir%\Logs\DPX\setuperr.log
cscript %windir%\Setup\Scripts\RemovePending.vbs %windir%\Panther\setuperr.log
cscript %windir%\Setup\Scripts\RemovePending.vbs %windir%\Panther\UnattendGC\setuperr.log

shutdown /r /t 30

I noticed, however, that some files not are deleted as the %windir%\setupact.log and %windir%\setuperr.log files and the %windir%\Setup\Scripts directory. Why?

P.S: If, however, having finished the installation, I write one of the following commands (%windir%\Setup\Scripts\RemovePending.vbs %windir%\setupact.log or %windir%\Setup\Scripts\RemovePending.vbs %windir%\setuperr.log or %windir%\Setup\Scripts\RemovePending.vbs %windir%\Setup\Scripts )from the command prompt of the administrator, the next time that I restart Vista, these objects are removed as scheduled.

[Windows PE and shared network resource]

What is the correct syntax for NET USE to do this?

Use: net use /? to obtain help.

Please try to be more helpful.

This is an example of my use of this command:

net use z: \\server\share Password /user:UserName

Full documentation here:

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb490717.aspx

Then, in a LAN without a domain, should I write:

net use Letter:\\Server\Shared-Directory password-user /user:\\Server\Username

Instead, in a LAN with domain, should I write:

net use Letter:\\Server\Shared-Directory password-user /user:Domain-name\Username

Right?
