What about VMware? The way you could have one secure computer behind a firewall and your Webserver could run in VMware, with open ports. When being hacked the main-system would'nt care

Seems to work, but havent installed with this The question is, would it even work if copied to CD? ^^

Had a look for office 97 here, the only things I could find were Office 2003 or XP, no 97 Does anyone know how to perform an unattended installation with Office 97, where to put the destination-directory, what to install and maybe tell the setup to put the shortcuts in a directory "Office 97"? Here is the site with switches for 97: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?...oduct=ofw97#kb2 Nothing which could help me :/

The problem is, when looking for something special to install, e.g. regtweaks, its very annoying for searching it in 60 other tweaks, so best would be to sort them, but when adding a new one.... And Optic: I think it's more or less important, matters on whom you ask^^ I would like to have a nice optic at the setup, so you could think the program integrates fully in the setup. But also you are right when you say, the program is not for the optik but for an unattended installation Another point: Does already a thread exist, how to get the versions of several programs? ^^ (Like for MediaPlayer/DirectX/.Net)

Ich mach dann auch mal auf Englisch weiter ^^ @BenjaminKalytta: I think when using group You only want to install one item in this group, otherwise group wouldn't be the right choice, right? So selecting more than one point in the .ini doesn't make sense to me. When you change something you also can't select more than one point any more. Only at the start in the ini you can select more than 2, what would be a programming-failure in the ini for me, when you do so ^^ So the best choice for me would be, only select one of the items in the ini and using this as "default". So when selecting "alles auswählen" or the item above, all items should be selected, which are selected in the ini ^^ But sure it's up to you how to configure WIHU in this case, it's only my opinion @my2001: Sure, it would work. But in XPlode the design is very cool, so it covers the Original Setup-design of XP and only the left frame is visible. Sicherlich würde das klappen, so weit hab ich das Programm ja auch schon verstanden Aber bei XPlode ist einfach die integrierende Optik ziemlich genial, bei mir legt sich XPlode mit dem Setup-Design über den Setup-Schirm, nur der linke Teil ist dann noch zu sehen, einfach genial. @both: the different config-file struture is sure a problem and would cost programming-time to combine. If Wraith and Benjamin would like to think about combining the config-files, I would suggest using the XML-format, because it seems to be easier for the user. For example if you want to change two positions, you just need to copy and paste in the install.ini you have to change the numbers for all points, which are in my case 3-4 per item. So when writing a new regTweak (which I sort by letters) it's very uncomfortable to change the numbers of 30 items ^^ Here an example, what a combined config-file could look like: <item display="IrfanView 3.91"> <execute display="Installiere..." program="IrfanView3.91.exe /> <selected=1 /> <item display="deutsche Sprache"> <execute display="kopiere .ini" program="copy" arguments="i_view32.ini %programfiles%\IrfanView" /> <selected=1 /> </item> </item> If You think it's too much programming-effort, what about a user-friendly way of arranging the items? Maybe a sort of auto-increment instead of the numbers, so copy&paste would work? Every "description"-point would make such auto.increment fpr example. For the Sub-Items one could set sub = 1 or something like this, for a new set of Sub-Items, when finishes you set sub = 0 and you're back on your main-area. Example for this: ;beginning with .0 description = 7-Zip 3.13 command = Software\7-Zip3.13\setup.exe -y /q /r:n selected = 1 collapsed = 1 ;recognizes the "sub=1", program stays with .0 and starts a sub-item .0.0 sub=1 description = deutsche Sprache command = regedit /s regtweaks\7-Zip.reg selected = 1 ;not changed back to main-level, staying with .0 and suffix would automatic be .0.1 description = abcdef command = regedit /s regtweaks\abcdef.reg selected = 1 sub = 0 ;as recognizing "sub=0" program will get back, adding .1 description = Aida32 command = Software\Aida32_3.94.2.exe selected = 1 So You wouldnt have to use numbers for your items, program would recognize items by description and put everything after description until next description to one point. Sub-Items would be generated like this: .0 sub=1 .0.0 .0.1 .0.2 sub=1 .0.2.0 .0.2.1 sub=0 .0.3 sub=0 .1 .2 sub=1 .2.0 .2.1 hope I could express what I mean ^^ @Benjamin: Das soll nun nicht so rüberkommen, als ob ich das ganze nur kritisieren will, ich find das Programm echt genial;) Die einzigen beiden Sachen die halt nicht schlecht wären, wären das Abschaffen der Zahlen und ein ins Setup integrierendes Design

Just use <execute> with your shortcut.exe and put the arguments in arguments="/X" Don't think its possible with shortcut plugin

I have used XPlode now while Setup of XP and I have also used WIHU for Installing on an already installed system, where you can have to make a choice for programs you wish to install. Only problem is, you have to have 2 seperate files with the information what to install. So a conclusion would be, when both programs would build up on the same configuration-file May be it could be optional, that XPlode also can read the install.ini of WIHU and execute the commands which are basically selected?

When using group.x I have to select one Item and unselect the others manually (or unselect all), because selecting more than 2 would be useless. This works well so far, but when I select the main-Item, always the first group-item is selected, when I select "Alles auswählen" (bottom-left) always the last item is selected... In my opinion best behaviour would be that always the points are selected, which are selected in the .ini Übirgens tolles Programm Für Installationen nach dem Setup einfach genial! Aber, könnte man dieses und das von Wraith nicht kombinieren? Zumindest das beide die gleichen Dateien auslesen? Wäre cool beim Setup von CD bei T-13 XPlode laufen lassen zu können und für alle andern Fälle wo XP schon installiert ist WIHU ^^ Werde Wraith das auch nochmal vorschlagen

Would like to say Thank You for this wonderful tool. (Didn't find another thread for this ) Use XPlode now in my apprenticeship (IT-System-Elektroniker) in an unattended XP-Setup for installing Patches and Software at t-12 and also for Installing afterwards (the same .xml's) Have only 3 Problems, the design does not integrate perfectly in XP-Setup, Patches won't run with XPlode at t-13 (svcpack.inf), and "hide" does not work like I want^^ But more in another Thread for this, cause we should let this Thread for people who want so say Thank You (and maybe tell what they use XPlode for ^^) so Wraith knows he does good work
