For some reason, I get (2) on many of my Start Menu shortcuts. I used to have Start10 on Windows 10. I then upgraded to Windows 11, removed Start10, installed StartAllBack and re-added the Start Menu shortcuts. Any ideas?

Is it a genuine .ISO? As in, not been tampered with by some third party? I restarted my computer and the program begun to accept the ISO. How bizarre :|

I am using RT Seven Lite beta build 2.6.0 and when I select my Windows 7 Professional Edition (with SP1) ISO and an extract path, I get a message stating "Select a bootable Windows 7 operating system". I have also manually extracted the ISO and pointed to that directory, which then gives me an "Object reference not set to an instance of an object." message. Any ideas?

How would I go about doing this?

I am currently running x86 and now that SP1 is out, I have decided to slipstream it and start using x86-64. How would I do this? The option in the 'Hotfixes' area seems greyed out. Do I need to run vLite on an x86-64 system to slipstream SP1 into the image? Seems daft :S

I do. It could very well be a standard Canon/Vista issue

Whenever I make a vLite'd DVD, I always tick all compatibility options. It starts me off on things I shouldn't remove from the disk.

I made the DVD over a month ago unfortunately.

I made a vLite DVD-R based on Windows Vista Home Premium. I have installed the drivers for my Canon MP510 in Windows Vista. I can print fine but can not scan. I do not appear to have Windows Fax and Scan installed, although I did not ask for it to be removed. I also retained WIA to be best of my knowledge. No application can currently access the scanner. Any ideas?

You are right. I am sorry for getting heavy but I have no idea what went wrong. Thank you guys.

Projected folder is 1.62 GB, ISO is 1.61 GB.

Attached 19jul07.ini

Will do later today, can't at the moment. I do appreciate this, believe it or not

On further inspection, it does seem to have removed things like the Sample Pictures and Screensavers. So my question is, why do you think it was unable to remove things like the Snipping Tool and the Welcome Center?

So you mean you can't help me with my problem. Fair enough.

Right, I have done exactly that more than once! Read the topic :S

I am confused. Where have I gone wrong exactly? :S

I apologize for being how I am, I am just frustrated in other ways than this vLite issue at the moment. I copied all the files from the DVD into C:\WINVI. I have a key for Home Premium. I directed the program to the directory, chose HOMEPREMIUM and set all the options I wanted. When Vista is installed from the newly burnt DVD-R, all the components I ticked (i.e. to be removed) were installed. That is all I know. I do not see what I could be doing wrong.

I am not daft, I TICKED the components I want removed. I clicked Apply (which did shrink the folder) and then burnt it to media using vLite and although the installation settings went through fine (automatically entering CD key, setting Microsoft Update options etc.), it did NOT remove the applications/components I asked it to remove. I have a reason to be annoyed now that you two guys are making me out to be stupid but I have done everything I was meant to do. It has happened with previous versions of this software, too. Wasted a lot of DVD-Rs over time.

Additional: I went through it all again, clicked Apply, chose the second option (that shrunk the folder by phyiscally removing the files) and then burned to DVD-R using the program and although Vista installed without asking for things like my CD key, whether to set Windows Updates to automatic etc. (which was a good thing), it STILL installed the Welcome Screen, Sidebar, Snipping Tool etc., things I asked it to remove! I am highly unimpressed with this program so far.

I just tried installing Vista using the CD made with vLite and it instantly asked for my CD key, so I am assuming vLite just made a duplicate of my original CD. How frustrating. Guys, I am only helping here, but you can not assume users know they have to click the Apply button before burning. If the Apply button had to be pressed prior to the 'Burn' Mode, then fair enough, but it's not.

I used the 'Direct Burn' mode before clicking Apply (as the mode selection box is shown on the screen before the Apply button). Have I gone and burnt an exact copy of my original media with no changes? If so, I will be annoyed that I wasted a DVD-R (and also if it's the case, the software should make it clearer as I consider myself very good with computer software and if I am confused, I certainly won't be the only one).

I have copied the Vista DVD contents to the HDD (2.52 GB) and set vLite to use the directory. I have chosen my selected tasks, the components to be removed, the tweaks to be applied etc. and I am now on the ISO tab. How do I now burn a bootable DVD? I don't know which 'Mode' to choose, which 'Label' to enter, whether I should make an ISO and/or click 'Apply' first etc. Can anyone help?

So you don't have to. Silly me, thank you
