Update Version 2.3.6.0 - auto mounting of all active primary and efi system partitions - removed UXTheme patch for Windows 8 installations

Okay here we have the problem, you have an encrypted wim file. Sorry, but there is no way to use and ESD image with WinNTSetup. You need a normal Windows 8 Medium, one that have an install.wim file.

WinNTSetup is not designed to install a WinPE, so you'll get this error if you try to install 1 of the 2 boot.wim indexes. You really need to have an install.wim file or is your boot.wim bigger than 2GB ?

Thanks alacran

Thanks to cy06 for updating Chinese (Simplified & Traditional) language. Also there a new beta available, that should mount all active primary and EFI system partitions.

Thanks tiagotecno

There is a Tools folder inside the .zip file. It contains the downloader and a file list. Not sure about a wb script, thought there was one, but not on the server anymore. Once you have downloaded the files, WinNTSetup is fully portable.

Well, there are debug messages all over in the code. However, i wasn't on my own PC were i usually compile it. Somehow not all debug messages got strip, by the pre compiler that I had adjust a bit.

I will never touch any source code on snowy eastern again. Update v.2.3.5.2 is online

Should be fixed now

That, properly the problem. I used all paths for tools folder correct, but for forgot the the bcdboot patcher search in all places expect the tools folder Update v.2.3.5.1 is online

No, only from an already applied wim file or other offline windows.

Hi wimb, there is a small problem with SidebySide components on x64 SP1 sources. The reg file PE3-SOFTWARE_SxS.reg is only compatible with SP0 sources. The SP1 version will not be compatible with SP0 again, so MakePE3 would need to make a check for service pack and apply the right one. PE3_mod.7z

Hmm, not so sure about new features, Version 3 will be a complete rewrite in a more suited language. Following improvements are planned. - command line will be more logical - better language file support - VHDX support is still missing I might also include some tools, I use in very often in WinPE - offline product key finder - offline admin password reset - gui wrapper for BCDEdit maybe an offline regedit could be added to.

Seems I won't get enought time to finished version 3 in a foreseeable time, so here comes a new minor update: Version 2.3.5.0 - small fixed and code improvments - ADK files are now required WinNTSetup will of course help you downloading these files automaticly. With latest ADK files it should be possible to support legacy system like Windows XP for a longer time.

Thanks for 4Li, we now have Korean translation

Hi martin, many people wonder about that, but it's correct behavior of WinNTSetup. Microsoft has create Vista and Windows 7 images with default system letter D:. WinNTSetup is not only used as a setup tool, but also as an generic WIM Image applier. Therefor it's not always wanted to change the letter.

Seems WinNTSetup got very popular and my dropbox sharing is now gone. Have added SD mirror, hope this works for everyone. Also we now have Chinese translation by cy06

Thanks alacran Spanish translation added to first topic

No Zip file!Only unpacked folder than contains the *inf files.

Oh, I forgot to update it. Here is the latest language.zip I put that link to 1 page, but so far I don't expect any language changes for version 2.x anymore.

Hi xcv150! Just make sure your MassStorage drivers are unpacked, the *.inf files must be available. So just select this folder under the "Add Drivers" option and they will be integrated. Well, there is -DisableSystemRestore but as already told we can't have cmdline options for everything so get familiar with the ini file For the combo box, yeah reproduced. It only happens if wimindex is used in command line. Had not thought someone would specific something as cmd parameter and try change it right after the app has started But it's no serious problem only description is not updated. You can use mouse wheel while the box hast focus to manually fix it for now.

Sorry, have no idea why this is happening.

hi zpimp, open cmd.exe with admin rights and use mountvol to remove the wrong letters. example: mountvol Y: /D

As long WinXP is still used by some many, i'll try to keep supporting it if the workarounds are that easy. Yes, Windows 7 or a PE3 based PE like Win7PE_SE are the recommended platform to run it. Some goes for Windows 8 and PE4, but both of them still are under development. Never had a freezing problem, maybe it's Grub4DOS causing it on some machines, but just a guess.
