    In my experience the "average punter" we supply to cannot copy & paste never mind find an oeminf file and edit it or del it! You wouldn't believe some of the "tech" queries we get. Drag and drop with the right mouse button is rocket science dont you know! :no:

  2. I want to use an SFX to create a file to install my rarreg.key to my Winrar folder thru' RunOnceEx. I can make the archive and do the syntax for the RunOnceEx ok - but I have 2 quick questions: when specifying the absolute path in the SFX settings can I use %systemdrive%\Program Files\WinRar (which will make the uA CD more versatile) or does it have to be X:\Program Files\WinRar ?? Also because there's a gap in Program Files does it all have to be enc in quotes?

    Have used the winrar help file util but there's no mention of %systemdrive% usage. T.I.A.

    You can slipstream SP1 (that is SP1 for Office 2003) into an Office 2003 image on your harddrive - and then put the resulting slipstreamed Office 2003 image onto your unattended cd - usually in $OEM$\$1\Install\Apps\ folder and install Office as you would all your other apps, by calling the install from either a batch_file or using RunOnceEx.

  4. Para1. Yes. Find out which installer it uses and "search" preferably in the correct forum = "Application Switches" http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showforum=80 Or run the installer with the /? switch to see a list available.

    Also SEARCH the main website!

    Para2. Search for your switches in correct forum.

    Para3. Yes they can all be reg this way, so get all your other stuff together first and then post back for reg help with some more details. No problem. Tell us all what you're using, RunOnce or Batch_file.cmd?

    Edit: not gone mad, must have posted simultaneously with Incroyable Hulk!

  5. @rmarsico = bet your glad you asked now!

    @un4given1 & radimus = you are both clever and educated guys who both contribute enormously to this forum with quality posts, but 'tis the season of goodwill and your rantings at each other are enough to dissuade a junior poster from ever posting again. Please calm down gentlemen.

  6. Guide for uninstalling it here = http://www.activewin.com/tips/tips/microso...dvanced/8.shtml

    So I s'pose if you never wanted to re-install in you could forget all the "backup" instructions and then adapt all the instructions to run as a cmd file or thru your RunOnceEx. This would then remove it on first run. But as far as removing it from the source CD is concerned, I would have thought MS would have made this virtually impossible.

  7. HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer

    NoSetActiveDesktop = 1

    Add this by any number of methods. (If you need details, PM me).

    Create a new DWORD value named "NoSetActiveDesktop", and set the new value to equal "1" to enable the restriction or "0" to disable the restriction.

    P.S. This restriction can be used either on a user by user basis by adding it to HKEY_CURRENT_USER or on a computer wide basis by adding it to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE.
