Correct me if I'm wrong, but KB911564 is still needed even when installing WMP11 because it replaces something that exists across all Windows Media component programs.

@jvidal: I have this list somewhere. I'll go dig it up in a few seconds...stay tuned. Edit: Here you go! Not for IE7: KB922760 (previous Cumulative IE5/6 update) KB925454 (current Cumulative IE5/6 update) KB925486 (Vulnerability in Vector Markup Language) Superseded by IE7: Windows Script 5.6 KB917344 for previous Windows Script 5.6 KB924496 (Vulnerability in Windows Object Packager)

@retalv, You're kind of confused there. I'm not quite sure where you're getting this information . OK, kindly read Tomcat's post above and the information below. HFSPLUG2.CMD does not modify any predetermined file. It only does what you tell it to do. That is, the file is called by the HFSLIP program at the end of the slipstreaming process right before the log file is written. If you want HFSLIP to do what you requested, simply create the plug-in file like this... HFTOOLS\HFSPLUG2.CMD IF EXIST HFTOOLS\AHFSLIP.TXT FOR /F "DELIMS=" %%I IN (HFTOOLS\AHFSLIP.TXT) DO ECHO %%I >>SOURCESS\I386\SVCPACK\HFSLIP.CMD We can't implement exactly what you told us because that would just be redundant.

@retalv, you must use the name 'HFSPLUG2.CMD'. Simply write whatever you want to do in the batch script, then place it in HFTOOLS. If you're not sure how to do so, I'm not so sure how we can help as it was an older feature (i.e. HFSPLUG1.CMD existed before but we later incorporated that stuff back into the script).

[offtopic] Pssst...Tomcat! Are you checking your PMs? [/offtopic]

@retalv, This is already supported. Create a batch file with the necessary commands called HFSPLUG2.CMD and place it into HFSVCPACK. Keep this in mind - the CMD is executed right before the log file is generated. The path is your HFSLIP folder.

@Kiki: It would be good to have this topic stickied, but I feel that the list of pinned topics is getting loooonng.

See the changelog for the test releases.

@Tomcat76, Is nLite still slipstreaming IE7 at all? I was thinking maybe we could implement their method, but I'm sure you've thought of that long ago.

@All Can we please try using the right terminology? It's reseal, not rescell or resell. Thanks.

My HFANSWER.INI file hasn't been modified since the last time HFSLIP has worked. I will try it, however, with DRIVERCOMP=A. I'm afraid to re-use the latest final because a few things in my HF folder are only supported by these test releases. But I'll see what I can do to rule things out.

List updated. I've kept the HighMAT update for now until I can take a better look at it.

I'm afraid recopying my source did not solve anything. Setup is still restarting. Here's the HFSLIP.LOG and other relevant files from my latest run.

There's a section in HFSLIP that will do this. I have only the relevant sections posted below. You may copy and modify it to suit your needs. All credit goes to Tomcat76, who wrote the code for it. Paste before copy section :TIMECALC FOR /F "TOKENS=2,3 DELIMS=:. " %%Q IN ('ECHO %TIME%') DO SET ETIMEM=%%Q&SET ETIMES=%%R IF NOT "%STIMEM%"=="00" IF %STIMEM% LSS 10 FOR /F "TOKENS=1 DELIMS=0" %%I IN ('ECHO %STIMEM%') DO SET STIMEM=%%I IF NOT "%STIMES%"=="00" IF %STIMES% LSS 10 FOR /F "TOKENS=1 DELIMS=0" %%I IN ('ECHO %STIMES%') DO SET STIMES=%%I IF NOT "%ETIMEM%"=="00" IF %ETIMEM% LSS 10 FOR /F "TOKENS=1 DELIMS=0" %%I IN ('ECHO %ETIMEM%') DO SET ETIMEM=%%I IF NOT "%ETIMES%"=="00" IF %ETIMES% LSS 10 FOR /F "TOKENS=1 DELIMS=0" %%I IN ('ECHO %ETIMES%') DO SET ETIMES=%%I SET /A TMIN=%ETIMEM%-%STIMEM% SET /A TSEC=%ETIMES%-%STIMES% ECHO>TTEST.TXT %TSEC% FOR /F %%I IN ('FINDSTR/R "\-" TTEST.TXT') DO SET SERROR=1 IF DEFINED SERROR CALL :NSTIMES ECHO>TTEST.TXT %TMIN% FOR /F %%I IN ('FINDSTR/R "\-" TTEST.TXT') DO SET MERROR=1 DEL/Q/F TTEST.TXT IF DEFINED SERROR (SET NSTIMEM=59) ELSE (SET NSTIMEM=60) IF DEFINED MERROR CALL :NSTIMEM IF %TSEC% LSS 10 SET TSEC=0%TSEC% SET RTIMELN=Total run time: %TMIN% min %TSEC% sec ECHO.

@the_guy Is KB925398 needed for Windows XP SP2 when WMP11 and WMF11 are installed? Automatic Updates still downloaded this hotfix when it updated my computer today.

How did you manage to make the size increase to 180 KB?

Not again!

@retalv: I do not believe the script has changed anything for support of items in HFSVCPACK for any operating system recently (at least for .NET installers). @Kiki: If you want to see what new hotfixes have been released on WU/MU, check out this KB article.

@retalv RyanVM's .NET 2.0 installer has never worked in HFSVCPACK. It clearly states on his site that his installer is not installable through SVCPACK, the reason being a specific registry entry must be modified before and after setup is launched. I would recommend you try RogueSpear's installer. This will make the necessary registry edits at the appropriate times. Place it in HFSVCPACK and you should be good to go! Good luck!

Will try and see...

Thank you, dziubek. More information at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/894199. P.S. Just a gentle reminder- KB925454 (MS06-072) is NOT for Internet Explorer 7. Edit: Why is KB929120 not included in KB928388? Maybe because they released it later...?

Hmmm...I almost thought today was Monday! Tomcat, I think you got mixed up too.

Here you go!

@dziubek, 1. This option has long been supported. Simply use the proper variable. Don't mention it here - absolutely no support will be provided if something goes wrong. 2. I believe Tomcat just needs to change one of the switches for DIR.

@Kiki: XP Gold did contain the Java VM, but it was XP SP1a that removed it (following XP SP1). Just wanted to clear that up.
