Hi All! I put together a package to prevent the weather bug and wild tangent from being installed but I need your help on preventing the tool bar... What are the silent uninstall switches for the toolbar I included the script below just change to your paths... you will have to get the installer yourself it is to big to included just put it in the same folders as the MessAIM.cmd http://channels.netscape.com/wrap/linker.j...Install_AIM.exe Enjoy Mac! P.S. What AIM is doing is installing the loaders So when you do finally go on the internet it loads you up... and even if you reboot they start up again silent... I shut down them down and removed them.. MessAIM.zip

you missed some script somewhere you don't make a new user..... I included the script below... it switch you to the hidden default user..... look it over.......... did you delet the wrong default user.... turn on the options to see all files included hidden one... did you delete the default user or default user.domainname <<-- this ithe on that goes... Did you get your path right ????????????????????? the sytem has to reboot after you run the script then you can delete default user.domainname.. the link in the register has to be switch to the hidden default user first .. requires a reboot DON"T MAKE ANY new users _SIDefaultuser.zip

When you do a hand install of yahoo it puts this file in the yahoo folders autocomplete.inf grab it and put it in the install folder,,,, when you do a fresh install after grabbing this file it doesn't make it again it just uses it to install yahoo how you want it,,, LOL it kept the bloody mail to stuff away... I attached the one I trapped and used Enjoy! Mac! P.S. I used a little s --> /s cmdow @ /HID @echo off Cls TITLE Setup Yahoo ECHO.

*** JUST A NOTE *** I had to sack the viewer along time ago cause it conflicts with microsoft office there is also a article at MS support that stays to sack the viewer if you install office So keep this in the back of your gray matter.... Plus you really don't need it cause this is what it does,, Microsoft Windows Journal Viewer 1.5 This accessory permits people who do not have a computer that is running Windows XP Tablet PC Edition to view files that were created in Windows Journal Viewer on a Tablet PC. The program is available for download. Opening Certain Programs Causes Repair of Journal Viewer to Start http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?...kb;en-us;815036 You will need it if you are talking to a Table PC.. Most of us Don't... I know I don't.. Mac!

all depends on the rest of your code.. I have this [COMMANDS] "AllUsersTweaks.cmd" <<--- this one setups up some register stuff "useraccounts.cmd" <<--- this one calls autologon.reg also "RunOnceEx.cmd" <<-- this one start the whole ball at the first logon.. You have to get the loading of the first logon keys somewhere My RunonceEX.cmd calls a file on the D:\ drive %XPCD%\~XPCDRunOnceEx.cmd that loads the real RunoncEX keys right now the %XPCD%\~XPCDRunOnceEx.cmd file is blank cause I'm playing but it will finally link to the RunOnceEx_999_DU.cmd once I get done.. I'm daisy chaining right now so I can play.. I burned a CD-RW for the basic load and then I use the files from the d:\ drive to load runonexstuff I don't need to keep install windows cause that is done I just wipe the drive and put back the same windows basic then run the RunOnceEx_999_DU.cmd for testing.... So you see it all depends on your code where and when and how you place and do something is up to you Just get the timing right... If you gave two different people that same plate of food would they both eat it the same... NO but it all does end up in the stomach.... Mac!

Here is a new package all dressed up! All the windows are the same size you can look in the code to see how I pulled it off I spaced the high and low number apart so just keep the key numbers in between the ranges you can look at the code and see how it was done... Right now there is ten lines at the most just keep the program keys balanced to the spacers... you can add or take away to your liking... same here follow the other post and get on the hidden default profile.. also look at the cleanup it is nice safe and easy clean up.. EnJoY! Mac! XPCDinstall.zip

That is one of the many reason why I put up the subject about login into the hidden default profile....................... What is happening to you.... you are on the admin profile install stuff well most programs do not update the hidden defaullt profile so when you make a new user you are using the hidden default profile and nothing from the admin profile,,,, You all need to read my post about the deault profile,,, if you do it my way you will be on up on most of the your m8 out there,,,, The HKLM keys are shared,,, The HKCU are not .... You are loading up the HKCU for the admin profile and not touching the HKCU hidden default profile.... When you make a new user you get the HKCU keys from the hidden Default users,,, And as a heads up some programs do not care over the activations from profile to profile .. once the links change into the file folders you will still have to reactivate them... Just the way the numbers bounce......... read this http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showto...=0entry182275 Mac!

What it looks like you need to do is extract the files find the setup.iss in the folder mmsetup_9000156_ENU and delete it also look in the C:\WINDOWS folder and delete any setup.iss files now make a short to the mmsetup_9000156_ENU\setup.exe open it and look at the properties put a -r on the end than do the whole thing after you are done move the new setup.iss into the install folder... it works half way just need to know how to bypass the regitration screen and the last screen setup complete.... So far for me I'm going to have unattended install for most of my programs but I will still have two things to lick.. the ones that auto install but have to be finished up later cause there is nothing in the program to set it up or in the register to keep.. and the ones that just plain don't have a silent installer,, Any way life will be easier cause they will be over half way done just have to doctor them up... Like music match it will have to hand installed cause I have not found a way to kill the bloody reg screen... but the rest installs silent... Go figure,,, and some that will have to activated cause the program will not carry over the activations... when the time stamps of the files don't match they kick out... Mac!

They are flags for inside the Setup files.. if flag.txt exist do this...... So Leave them... Mac!

LOL STONED ESSUI LAER EHT WONK EW WON

Also what do you do if any programs drop runonceEX keys back in that need to be pulled before your next set of keys.. For me it is easier to do code in small chunks called subroutines that just have a long list.. this way you can test a subroutines out without having to run all the code.. Mac!

This is for you all that like to play with code... The thing I did with mine is switch over to the default profile so when I run the application installation from the runonceEX they are being install into the default profile.. read this post on how to switch to the default profile... http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showto...=0entry182275 I will try to upload a zip file so you look over the code all you will have to do is insert you installation run keys... I use batch and vbs files to install things I use the keys to call the batch files... You will have to change the XPCD to your path,, I use a enviroment varible to point me at the D:\XPCDInstall folder... I add a line code in the HIVESYS.INF so when it lights of my XPCD = D:\XPCDInstall HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment","windir",0x00020002,"%SystemRoot%" HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment","XPCD",0x00020002,"D:\XPCDinstall" HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Executive","AdditionalCriticalWorkerThreads",0x00010003,0 I also included a batch to run regedit after each step.. just rename the EditRegister.txt when you are done,, also close the regedit before it is time to reboot so the rest of the code will run I inserted it so you can have 30 seconds to look at the runonex keys... I also included a nice and clean way to complete clean up.. the clean up is done after the last reboot and right before it logs you back in this way all open files are closed and not active... You cannot delete open or inuse files.. open this files and change the name of the folders to delete to yours,,, CleanUpFinish.vbs and this file I didn't included cause you will have to do your own links replacement ICNSetupUnHide.vbs This one puts back my caller ID startup short cut On Error Resume Next 'Declare var's and objects Dim WshS, fso, sysr, sysd, home, aup, cpf, pf, up, XPCD Set WshS = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell") Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") 'Expand Environment 'Create const's to spare time and place sysr = WshS.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%SystemRoot%") sysd = WshS.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%Systemdrive%") home = WshS.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%Homepath%") aup = WshS.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%AllUsersProfile%") cpf = WshS.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%CommonProgramfiles%") pf = WshS.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%Programfiles%") up = WshS.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%UserProfile%") XPCD = WshS.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%XPCD%") fso.CopyFile XPCD & "\ICNSetup\U.S. Robotics Internet Call Notification.lnk" , aup & "\Start Menu\Programs\Startup\U.S. Robotics Internet Call Notification.lnk", true *** NOTE*** Also to you all that like to play wth code the same thing goes here as with all code you will nned to modify to meet your needs,,, I think I got it all if not just yell Enjoy Mac! LOOK ON PAGE THREE for the updated CODE all dressed up! XPCDforum.zip

I have not tested the other code but Since I posted the Coolsights way I have add ed some stuff to it ... My questions is can you add a reboot sections cause some programs that you install reguire other things to be installed first,, then install them so you need a reboot somewhere in there between.... how would you code pick up from I added a reboot sections at the front... My first reboot puts you on the default desktop. and then installs all the programs.. then reboots after the last sections and puts back some short cut links.. that I pulled to prevent warning windows,,, This is my first block of code... The ~SIDefaultuser.cmd does the logic for the user switch and the ~SIDShutDownBlocker.cmd prevents windows from finishing the runoneEx,,, when it reboot you are on the default desktop and it starts the loading of program from the keys that where placed in the RunOnceEx_980_ISP.cmd I did figure out when you start the runoneEX it reads all the keys then keeps them somewhere else It deletes them as they finish,, I found this out cause I was deleting the keys after it read the keys and the commands where still being carried out... so it doesn't read one key at a time it scans and reads all the keys and puts them on a clipboard for that instannce of the rundll32.exe iernonce.dll,RunOnceExProcess,,,, I looks like you can hand delete the last section of keys and put a whole new set in and it will still finish the last reading of keys even though they are gone.. so when you go rundll32.exe iernonce.dll,RunOnceExProcess again it will read the new keys as a set.. Same rule about numbers .... do no overlap numbers... cmdow @ /HID @echo off cls TITLE Switching to Default User ECHO.

Just a place holder for now.. +++++++++++++++++++++++=== And I am sure there is probally a way to make the final window sizes all the same size so you will not see the windows underneath... If all of my pop up runonEX windows are the same size then you will not see the window underneath cause they will all be stacked on top of each other,,,, and only the top window will be seen,,,

I started another thread over here and play with the runonce code Have a look at what I did here I took the ideas of others and put this together http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=26982 Mac!

Hi! All! You all gave me something to play with so here is the results..... Ok I figured it out you have to set it up like a nested for -- next loop BUT only on the bottom.... Each time you call the rundll32.exe iernonce.dll,RunOnceExProcess it opens a new windows each window is on top of the last window.... and the last key is still open in the last window but it is hidden cause we didn't use the /VE on the last command You have to up the numbers from the top down and decrease the numbers from the bottom up.. working to the middle BIG NOTE Do not use the same runonce number twice or it may get written over or deleted when a key is done... Cause you are in the middle of a half A** loop.. I used the example from above but did some changes so I could play You will have to change the %XPCD% to your path and as you run it move the windows that pop around so you can get to the runonceEX window move that one and you will see another window under it,, when you get done with the last window it will go back and close the runoncw windows backwards 6 then 5 then 4 so on..... The only other questions is if there will be any program that drop any runonce key while we are looping if they are.......... They will have to pulled and put back on the last reboot.. Happy camping!

I will give the other thread a try I see what they are saying I just have to split up the cmd ... I know that the runonce goes low to high and will not go back to lower numbers so maybe the restart thing will work... or maybe it is....... it only reads the set of keys once then deletes as they are done... Not sure yet! so when you add more keys it doesn't see the new yet till a reboot or runonce restart..... One issue that I see with that setup is............... I will have to monitor the runonce keys to see if anything else that I install is adding keys for after a reboot if they are then I will have to pull them before the next set of runonce,,, cause that may cause a conflict.... Pull them then put them back... prior to the reboot.......... guestions guestions guestions,,,, I will not know till I play.... I already pull a HKLM run key then put it back on the reboot... cause what I am install gives a warning and says you need to reboot DAH DAH I know that already.. It is just when you come out of the runonceEX there is no reboot yet.. Normal the program is installed after the run keys have already ran.. Mac!

evilvoice At least you see what I am talking about... I will have to reread the link that sleepnmojo posted again but that is basically what I will need to do.. I read the post quickly so I don't know if they came up with a fix,, or not... Astalavista what good is it going to do by posting my runonce keys it just is to long for the screen and I need scroll bars .... there is 37 /VE entries so far and it will grow by the time I get done... Mac!

Hi All! I'm not sure what to call it But I need to be able to have the window that pops up during the runonceex time to scroll or be side by side... I have so much stuff in it.... it just goes off the bottom of the screen.... and you can only move it up so far to see the rest ... Here is a picture of what I'm refering to............. http://unattended.msfn.org/images/runonceex.gif Thanks! Mac!

What settings did you use I did a svcpack.inf install and it works great for me.. ;The comment below contains SFX script commands Path=C:\installnetfx SavePath Setup=netfx.msi /qb!- Silent=1 Overwrite=1

as long as the cable modem is seeing the cable line are all the proper lights on... http://www.toshiba.com/taisnpd/support/troubleshooter.html first you need to run the cable modem setup disc,, USB Driver for Windows XP, Windows 98SE, Windows ME and Windows 2000* http://www.toshiba.com/taisnpd/usb/pcx1100u_usb_drivers.exe then the comcast disk... I'll tell you if you are running a firewall getting comcast to enable will never happen they want to load you up with spyware and back doors for them... Best bet with comcast is get a old hard drive put it in with no blockers then run the modem install disc then the comcast disk... then put your old drive back in... run the setup disc for the modem As long as you keep up the bill you will not have to reenable the modem.. and you can take the comcast disc and throw it out the window.. Mac! Been there done that,,, LOL P.S. I reformat a play drive many times when I had comcast and all I ran was the modem disc after that...

spywareblaster install it no programming running adds blockers in the register it is free just keep it updated

LOL I was using the Dot folder as an example yes it is old 1.0 some thing ,, Mine is gone already,,, My netframe SP1 is done to used winrar SFX... I cheat when it comes to the dos commands (for me they are easy) I create a short cut to file and open the properties box then add tthe switches The ones that you are extracting the files,,, Then when you slip it do the same but put the switches on the end of the file you are slipping... You don't have to go start RUN--> bla bla When I did the sfx file I open winrar then changed the default setting then when I rarred it up...... it made the SFX file at the same time... IF you are having trouble deleting the folders just get rid of them later when you clean up... I am planning on putting a shortcut or a run key some where in the end to clean house As a bonus I still have not figured out for sure it you drop a lower number in the runonce it will only read low to high and if you drop a lower number it it will only pick it up on the next boot,,, I have one working that way right now.. But I have to make sure before I say for sure.... When My run once key goes off they go from 000 to 999 then when I get to 999 it puts a key back in numbered 000 .. it seems to skip the lower number and completes the boot up and restart then it gets the new 000 ... If that is true I will drop a lower number clean up runoneEx key in... I'm using this method to prevent my caller ID from popping up a message saying you need to reboot bla bla bla,,, It pulls the run key then puts it backon the next reboot.. Mac!

I agree with the meaning of slip stream is to update the file like you do with XP going from Plain to SP1 to SP2 ... NET frame 1.1 has a slipstream SP1 that you update the files in the plain netframe 1.1 This is where I may have confused you or I am confused ???????????? NET Frame is not slipstream into XP and never has been there is a folder for it called DOTNETFX it is a separate program that gets installed by the users,,,, To me slipstream is updating files Not installing a programs... You install programs from various places during the installations of XP.... Same with NETframe... Popupcop Zonealarm Mcafee Norton If I am not correct in this definitions then I stand corrected... OR Does slipstream included everything that we included in the runonex.. SVCPACK.INF driver folders etc etc
