    Firefox 3.5.xx 3.6.xx addons install

    in Application Installs

    Posted · Edited by Chester^

    Hey there

    I'm trying to make this script of yours to work with xcopy.

    reason: i make a full backup of Firefox addons and other settings with FEBE and just extract the backup file's to the xxxxx.default dir.

    i find it easier also it saves all settings of addons and other.

    this is the code: 

    setlocal EnableDelayedExpansion
    "!programfiles!\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -createprofile default
    for /f "delims=" %%i in ("!appdata!\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\*.default") do set path1=%%~pi
    xcopy %systemdrive%\install\firefoxadd "!path1!" /e /i /h

    problem is it copys everything in the profiles\* folder, not in profiles\xxxxx.default\*

    any idea whats wrong?

    Thanks!

    Language settings & start panel probs

    in Unattended Windows 2000/XP/2003

    The double negatives can be confusing; basically [NoInstrumentation = 1] means Windows will not track your program usage.

    You can just delete the policy subkey if you want Windows to behave as default; leaving it as 0 doesn't do anything (and causes confusion). But that's just me not wanting to leave useless keys hanging around.

    It looks you have imported someone else's reg tweak.

    yea i deleted it, and yea i got the reg file from a thred here :whistle: cand remember witch one..

    i playd around with that registry key but no luck

    What did you actually do? When in the uA did you apply the reg?

    I said that is one of the locations. There seems to be others.

    I can’t seem to find the InputLocale for kayboard layouts Geek 319 and 319 (Latin)
    I think these are character set (code pages) in the old days; not sure if these are still used nowadays.

    Takeshi, i found the problem :thumbup

    it was cused by this registry key:

    ;-----  Won't check if you are low on diskspace and pop up a balloon telling you
    ;-----  NoInstrumentation disables windows user tracking
    ;-----
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer]
    "NoInstrumentation"=dword:00000001

    Thanks for all your help! :D

    The list of Frequently Used Programs on the bottom L of the Start Menu is indeed stored in the registry but it only gets populated when you have actually run a program on the installation.

    This is one of the locations:

    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\StartPage

    There is already a thread with a list of input locale IDs in this forum so have a look. It's also on the MS website.

    i playd around with that registry key but no luck.. :no:

    i checked the thred and ms web page but i did not find the input locale ID for Greek (319) nevermind this is a minor isue.. thying to resolve the start menu problem :wacko:

    Hello every one :hello:

    I have some minor problems with my unattended windows.

    First of, I can’t seem to find the InputLocale for kayboard layouts Geek 319 and 319 (Latin)

    The InputLocale for Greek is 0408:00000408 I know that but is there any way to install those two?

    My other problem is that in start panel I don’t get any shortcuts of programs I use.

    Anyone know what is causing it a service or a reg key?

    Picture below.

    Thanks in advance :)
