It creates a Firefox Launcher on the desktop, similar to the IE one, (and My Computer etc.), they are not lnk files. The launcher has the added benefit of a right-click context menu containing Open, Options, Profile Manager, Safe Mode, Create Shortcut It's a superb addition epecially for those not pinning Firefox to the Start Menu. The start.cmd is not a requirement of the tweak, just the reg file, you can simply use the reg in with your usual regs and install /copy firefox using your usual method. Or just apply the reg on an existing install.

Bâshrat's answer is still correct, and has nothing to do with your error. It would probably be a good idea to start your CD source again from scratch.

Try something like this: REG ADD %KEY%\163 /VE /D "MsgPlus" /f REG ADD %KEY%\163 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\Install\MSN\MsgPlus-350.exe /SilentInstallNoSponsor" /f REG ADD %KEY%\163 /V 2 /D "taskkill /I /FM explorer.exe" /f REG ADD %KEY%\163 /V 3 /D "taskkill /I /FM msmsgs.exe" /f REG ADD %KEY%\165 /VE /D "Microsoft Windows Antispyware" /f REG ADD %KEY%\165 /V 1 /D "\"%systemdrive%\install\Microsoft Windows Antispyware\msantispyware.msi\" /PASSIVE /NORESTART" /f REG ADD %KEY%\170 /VE /D "Windows Media Player 10" /f REG ADD %KEY%\170 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\install\WMP10\MP10Setup.exe /q:A /c:\"setup_wm.exe /Q /R:N /DisallowSystemRestore\"" /fNotes: For MS Antispyware start the install, get the .msi from "%UserName%\Local Settings\Temp" cancel the install. Also as stated, all the required switches were available on this site, that's where I got em!

Try something like this @ECHO OFF FOR /F "TOKENS=3 DELIMS= " %%I IN ('REG QUERY "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\cie\desktop" /v "OsLanguage" ^| FINDSTR "REG_SZ" ') DO SET LangOS="%%I" IF ERRORLEVEL 1 GOTO :NOTEXIST IF %LangOS%=="EN" GOTO :ENGLISH IF %LangOS%=="FR" GOTO :FRENCH :NOTEXIST ECHO SORRY THE KEY DOESN'T EXIST PAUSE GOTO :EOF :ENGLISH <put your english stuff here> GOTO :EOF :FRENCH <put your french stuff here> GOTO :EOF <EDIT> Just to make sure that the copy process works okay, the space between = and " in DELIMS= " needs to be a TAB </EDIT>

If your PC came with Windows XP installed, the Product Key will also be found on a sticker on the PC case. In fact, even if you purchased XP seperately, there is usually a sticker provided and instructions to stick it to your case anyhow.

The problem is not in the registry entry, but in your batch file. The batch file will very likely still be running in its own directory, i.e C:\My Bats As a simple fix, I would just make sure that your batch is in the directory upon which you clicked. To do this the batch would probably need to start with a line something like @echo off CD %1

This for Open and Play may help [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\.avi] @="AVIFile" [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\AVIFile\shell] @="play" [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\AVIFile\shell\open] @="&Open" [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\AVIFile\shell\open\command] @="\"C:\\Program Files\\Windows Media Player\\wmplayer.exe\" /prefetch:8 /Open \"%L\"" [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\AVIFile\shell\play] @="&Play" [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\AVIFile\shell\play\command] @="\"C:\\Program Files\\Windows Media Player\\wmplayer.exe\" /prefetch:8 /Play \"%L\""

Amaya 9.1, is an open source WYSIWYG editor, worth looking at too.

Thanks for the answers so far, like I said, I guessed the /qn /qb switches would work, just a question of what to include and any setup changes. For the size of it, I may as well include the mst file just in case. Is it really worth the drivers from winnt.sif then? I suppose I could add the following OemPnPDriversPath = "install\VMTools\program files\VMware\VMware Tools\Drivers\hgfs;etc. to prevent using two copies of them. Then again would these paths be okay with spaces in them? It's probably not worth it, unless you know better...

Either post the batch file or paste it into a PM, if you prefer. My guess is that you just need a few adjustments to take %1.

My mistake, I've re-edited my previous post correctly. (note the double backslashes)

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Folder\shell\do replaygain] [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Folder\shell\do replaygain\command] @="\"C:\\My Bats\\dogain.bat\" \"%1\""Just change the location of the bat as required, and you can replace \Folder\ with \Directory\, if you prefer. You can change the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes, for HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes, if your tweak is for all users. This would be the same as HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT, but you should try to avoid directly going there; all HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes entries are mapped to HKCR.

I know it's just an msi, so the usual /qn /qb will be probably do it, but is that all that's needed. Are any other changes required, (setup.ini or whatever), so that for all UA test disks, I dont need to go through the install VMTools and reboot. I know I can add the drivers etc to my winnt.sif, but I still need the Tools. Also If I install the tools silently, should I then also get rid of the winnt.sif drivers and let them install as part of the VMTools setup. I'll say what everyone else does, I have searched, but oddly, haven't found anyone even mention VMTools in this scenario.

The only real advantage is the possibility unistall it by putting back the windows defaults. With a reg file you would have to carry two an install one and a defaults one. Other than that no!

Here is a bunch of reg settings which may help! [HKEY_<LOCAL_MACHINE or CURRENT_USER or USERS\.Default>\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Control Panel] ;<Adds or Removes> the Security tab from the interface in the Internet Options dialog box. "SecurityTab"=dword:0000000<0 or 1> ;<Adds or Removes> the Programs tab from the interface in the Internet Options dialog box.

"AdvancedTab"=dword:0000000<0 or 1>No need to delete keys, if you wish you just toggle between 0 & 1

Sorry Bâshrat, I have tried too. I dont think there are any extractable files as such, just the contents of the dlls and instructions from the msi. the source files cabinet.dll Imagehlp.dll msi.dll msiexec.exe msihnd.dll msimsg.dll msls31.dll mspatcha.dll riched20.dll shfolder.dll usp10.dll If anyone else can shed some light, or has a compatible pc, the link for the file is this

Use this link to a post I made previously in this thread, the Microsoft file is linked in there.

No, you can continue to use your, usual methods. Also the file is only normal text, is commented and you can add, remove or change whatever you require.

Or you can use the Excel file listing them all with descriptions and registry keys, from Microsoft. Either search this site for the link or search MS

Yes it should...

Can someone point me in the right direction for the location of instructions for method 2, drivers from cd, no winnt.sif, bts driverpacks. Looking inside the RUN_ME.cmd it seems to be making edits to a winnt.sif file, I thought that the main purpose of the 'Pyron' method was drivers from the CD without a winnt.sif file. I have been all the way through the 'Pyron' thread and this forum and still cannot work out what I need to do or edit! TIA

Thanks, I got that version to check if my edits were correct. The problem of course was that the updated version on your site wasn't updated. <Edit> Even the download I got manually from your site two minutes ago was the incorrect version. </Edit>

I have just now (last 10 minutes) downloaded the latest base using the update.cmd, I ran the BTS_DPs_Slipstreamer_V5045.cmd, chose method 2 and it produced a folder called UWXPCD_ROOT containing M1 instead of M2.

The Copy To/Move To Context Menu Shell Extension is added if you use RyanVM's Windows XP Post-SP2 Update Full Pack

This will log you in basically for the install and a possible initiated reboot from your commands or applications. It will log you in as Administrator using the password as supplied in the winnt.sif. This should give you time if you wish in the GUI to add another user or even rename the Administrator account. If you do not create a new user, you will just have Administrator at the welcome screen after your specified number of AutoLogons have elapsed.
