It's an interesting question, you know! I use both: Inside Autounattend.xml <FirstLogonCommands> <SynchronousCommand wcm:action="add"> And SetupComplete.cmd inside: $OEM$\$$\Setup\Scripts\SetupComplete.cmd I think SetupComplete.cmd is launched first (which runs after OOBE phase but before first logon) and after the <SynchronousCommand > at first logon! http://social.techne...d4-868cfe0635d7 Yes! SetupComplete.cmd is launched automaticaly if exists http://technet.micro...314(WS.10).aspx http://technet.micro...314(WS.10).aspx FirstlogonCommands: http://technet.micro...150(WS.10).aspx

Yes, that's it, and I do like the example given above!

Many thanks for the useful and awesome tutorial about permissions maxXPsoft ! @coucou. Thank you for your search. I will add this infos inside a tutorial!

I see that inside "Unattended Windows Setup Reference for Windows 7.chm" when a value is writed with an underscore we can't have a blank space: Examples: Computer_name ; Registered_organization_name ; Manufacturer_name ; etc.. If we use a blank space some or all dialog boxes are displayed, even with an Autounattend.xml file complete! But if we want add a value with blank spaces we can use a reg file, example for OEM informations: OEM.reg Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 ;------------------------------------------------------------------- ; - OEM Informations (Original Equipment Manufacturer) - ;------------------------------------------------------------------- [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\OEMInformation] "Logo"="C:\\Windows\\System32\\oemlogo.bmp" "Manufacturer"="Se7en Titan™" "SupportURL"="http://people.consolidated.net/veeger" "Model"="Windows Se7en Titan"

Yes, you are Administrator and your account name is Administrator! I use Oracle Sun VirtualBox. However I think it's better to create a user account inside Group: Administrators! Like this: <UserAccounts> <LocalAccounts> <LocalAccount wcm:action="add"> <Password> <PlainText>false</PlainText> <Value>xxxxx</Value> </Password> <Group>Administrators</Group> <DisplayName>myselfidem</DisplayName> <Name>myselfidem</Name> </LocalAccount> </LocalAccounts> </UserAccounts> It's just an advice!

No! Fully unattended! Only the dialog boxes for selecting the Edition x86 or amd64 and the HDD!

Tested with blank space and doesn't works. All dialog boxes are displayed! Tested successfully adding: <RegisteredOwner>nice_guy75</RegisteredOwner> at <settings pass="oobeSystem"> <component name="Microsoft-Windows-Shell-Setup" processorArchitecture="x86" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" language="neutral" versionScope="nonSxS" xmlns:wcm="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WMIConfig/2002/State" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"> <TimeZone>Indian Standard Time</TimeZone> <RegisteredOwner>nice_guy75</RegisteredOwner> <component name="Microsoft-Windows-Shell-Setup" processorArchitecture="amd64" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" language="neutral" versionScope="nonSxS" xmlns:wcm="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WMIConfig/2002/State" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"> <TimeZone>Indian Standard Time</TimeZone> <RegisteredOwner>nice_guy75</RegisteredOwner> Image *Edit: Autounattend.xml file attached updated with the new values (post #126) I think you can try with: <ComputerName>Windows_7_Vaio</ComputerName> *Edit 2: Tested and works also with Computer Name: Windows_7_Vaio Image

The first time I gave you your Autounattend.xml file working, the computer name was : <ComputerName>Win7_Vaio</ComputerName>! (post #126 updated with Team-ARC): http://www.msfn.org/...e/page__st__120 Try to keep the same name! *Edit: remember you need to add for x86 and amd64.

Remove [cmdow @ /HID] and check the silent switches!

Maybe the problem is with the space inside : <Organization>Team ARC</Organization> Try whithout space: <Organization>Team-ARC</Organization>

Oh sorry, I've made errors because I've made your Settings.ini file manually and the positions aren't correct!!! Values inside: PrivateSetting_GadgetDropLocationY="value" I think it's needed to keep the same resolution screen: PrivateSetting_GadgetDropLocationX="1120" or PrivateSetting_GadgetDropLocationX="1760" or others for the destination screen! I've updated my last post... But check your Settings.ini file if it's OK! When we change the order, the value for the GadgetDropLocationY change! However, it's better to have the Settings.ini file made by Windows! We can close all the Gadgets and set a new time the Gadgets we want and save the Settings.ini file. I think, it's better to keep the attributes: +A +I

Thanks! I think you can remove inside your Settings.ini file and Missing Section0="1": [Root] LayoutPosition=Default (you can remove this line) Your choice for the order: 1 Calendar; 2 Weather; 3 Clock; 4 CPU and 5 RSSFeeds ; like your Autounattend.xml file order!

That's odd! Could you attach your Settings.ini file, please? *Edit: 1) You can try to use smaller size for the Gadgets! 2) Check if you have add Tweaks reg files with your customized Windows 7 and no correct value inside: [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\DesktopBackground\Shell] or [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\DesktopBackground\Shell] http://www.msfn.org/..._20#entry966749

I've made a new test successfully and it seems it is the best way! We can use RunOnceEx, like this: Clean.cmd COPY /Y "%~dp0Settings.ini" "%userprofile%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Sidebar\" ATTRIB +A +I "%userprofile%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Sidebar\Settings.ini" /S /D REM Restart 'sidebar.exe' SET KEY=HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnceEx REG ADD %KEY%\001 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\Program Files\Windows Sidebar\sidebar.exe" /f REGEDIT /S "%systemroot%\Setup\scripts\Tweaks.reg" Tweaks.reg Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 ;------------------------- ; - Show Gadgets - ;------------------------- [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run] "Sidebar"="\"C:\\Program Files\\Windows Sidebar\\sidebar.exe /autoRun"" [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Sidebar] [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Sidebar\Settings] "ShowGadgets"=dword:00000001 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Sidebar\Settings] "AllowElevatedProcess"=dword:00000001 Of course with this example the Desktop must be installed first and Gadgets installed with Autounattend.xml and after the reboot we will see our customized Gadgets! The Autounattend.xml file creates the "Settings.ini" file during "Preparing the Desktop" and the batch file (clean.cmd) needs to be launched after the Desktop is installed! The "Settings.ini" file is replaced with our customized settings!

To try to answer quetions: 1) the swith /f remove the value if it exists and the value will be replaced with the new one! You can use inside command prompt: add reg /? t o see explainations. The execution is carried out with order number! I think you can use: REG ADD %KEY%\1000 to execute the last reg add! 2) In fact with your Autounattend.xml, you don't need: <RequiresUserInput>false</RequiresUserInput> ; value true or false, because your account is Administrator! Default value is : false Extract: Unattented Windows Setup Reference for Windows 7.chm 3) Your are Admistrator but some Tweaks needs a reboot to see the changes! It seems the problem is with some Addons!

We can't do that !!! Downloads are RESERVED TO SUBSRCIBERS !!!

Excuse my english! After Windows® Welcome, the "Preparing Your Desktop" screen appears for up to two minutes. It's needed to see first the sidebar (visible and installed with Autounattend.xml) and after the batch file is launched and other programs (I use WPI). And we will see our customized Gadgets after the reboot! I keep the same order inside Autounattend.xml and Settings.ini for the Gadgets: Settings.ini [Root] SettingsVersion="00.00.00.02" ShowGalleryPrivacyStatementOnceComplete="true" Section0="1" Section1="2" Section2="3" [Hashes] C:\Program Files\Windows Sidebar\Gadgets\Clock.Gadget="%7B196EB779-40FE-AE35-C357-36AACE0AA470%7D" C:\Program Files\Windows Sidebar\Gadgets\Calendar.Gadget="%7BD3D8A841-CEE3-68C5-F99F-7302ABBBA0E3%7D" C:\Program Files\Windows Sidebar\Gadgets\Weather.Gadget="%7B42DE9D91-AEE2-BAC6-FEE5-ADCC7B7904C4%7D" ...........

You can use SetupComplete.cmd to add your registry Tweaks! Set the Tweaks registry inside the same folder: $OEM$\$$\Setup\Scripts Using RunOnceEx with SetupComplete.cmd: @echo off SET KEY=HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnceEx REG ADD %KEY%\001 /V 1 /D "REGEDIT /S %systemroot%\Setup\Scripts\Tweaks.reg" /f You can also add inside your Autounattend.xml file to all SynchronusCommands: <FirstLogonCommands> <SynchronousCommand wcm:action="add"> <RequiresUserInput>false</RequiresUserInput>

Thanks The Glimmerman! @nice_guy75 To change the text: Mount the install.wim image you want customize. And look inside the folder [with your language (en-US ?; mine is fr-FR)] : %Mounted_Folder%\Windows\Branding\Basebrd\fr-FR\basebrd.dll.mui => String: 14 (Copyright ...)

Yes, I use the option to wait before WPI installs the programs. You can choose the time you want! Launch WPI.exe and select the General options: you will see Inside useroptions.js: // General tab NumCols=1; // --- Timer=true; Seconds=120; StartBeepAtSecs=10;

I expand the program and I create a folder "ATI Driver" where I set all the expanded files, inside the distribution folder. And I use the silent switch: Setup.exe -INSTALL 1) Using RunOnceEx method : REG ADD HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnceEx SET KEY=HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnceEx REG ADD %KEY%\001 /VE /D "ATI Display Driver" /f REG ADD %KEY%\001 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\Install\ATIDriver\Setup.exe -INSTALL" /f 2) Using WPI (Windows Post Install Wizard): Same switch : Setup.exe -INSTALL 3) You can also create an SFX file: http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/101552-7z-sfx-modified-module-and-tools/

You can use nice programs like Se7en_UA and RT Se7en Lite or WIM 7 Integrator (http://www.win-lite....wim-integrator/) But it seems the best way is to use sysprep method: http://www.wincert.n...nt-101-updated/ (watch the video)

You can try the new version Oracle Sun VirtualBox 4.0.8: http://www.virtualbo.../wiki/Downloads Tested successfully with WPI 8.1.0 and Windows 7 Ultimate x64.

I'm guessing your are talking about security dialog boxes with WPI and Windows 7 SP1 with IE9! Maybe this workaround gives you some help:: http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/150585-issues-with-internet-explorer-9/
