Add Right click .wim Windows 7 or Windows 8/8.1
maxXPsoft replied to maxXPsoft's topic in Unattended Windows 7/Server 2008R2
The whole idea behind this is not needing the waik unless they want imagex functions. A lot coming here are on dial-up and I know what that is. 1.6GB Waik uh no thanks. I realize some need it to do more advanced things and that's fine, a majority coming here just want to build an unattended dvd. All I need is the updated .chm files and there is a separate d/l link for those. May 2010 chm files Everything working fine here with uac off. If your paranoid unplug the Inet cable and disable, reboot, build, restart it. I'm starting to get many more ideas for this once I make updates work -

Add Right click .wim Windows 7 or Windows 8/8.1
maxXPsoft replied to maxXPsoft's topic in Unattended Windows 7/Server 2008R2
You don't have that option with UAC on I'm trying to do this programatically, like with a .reg. Under UAC system32\dism.exe does not have FULL permissions with Admins and that's the holdup Have tried 6 different things I have here on doing that. My program Se7en_UA run's with Admin privledges so I know there is a way. Setacl would probably be only way to give Full permissions to Admins I am runnng without UAC because I keep a tight rein on my OS and have numerous restore options if I think something s wrong. Most don't have that so I didn't want to venture out and do that with setacl yet. I'm still looking because with anything Windows there is a way just have to figure it out. -

The InstallToAvailablePartition setting specifies whether to install the Windows operating system to the first available partition that has enough space and does not already contain an installation of Windows. but If you are installing Windows to a blank disk, you must create and format partitions with the CreatePartitions and ModifyPartitions settings, and set one of the partitions as the active partition. After the partitions are created and formatted, using the InstallToAvailablePartition setting will select the first available partition with enough space to install Windows.

You need to be running Windows 7 or Windows 8 with UAC ON or OFF A cascading menu to right click a .wim file to mount and do other things. Win 7/Win 8 has Dism.exe included in System32 folder so no need for the WAIK to be installed. Unless you need the separate tools it is a 1.66 GB xml checker that gives errors Note: You will need the WAIK if you want the IMAGEX options You can download Imagex.exe and drop in system32 folder as part of Windows Assessment and Deployment Kit (ADK) for Windows® 8 Get this adksetup.exe download and I just selected deployment tools. CMD /C Start /Wait %SystemDrive%\APPS\MS_ADK_WIN_8\adksetup.exe /features OptionId.DeploymentTools /norestart /q /ceip off A plus to that is you don't need a 1GB + download, was 80mb installed here and includes WSIM for xml editing. - minus is you need .NET4 ;( I set to C:\zMountDir where it will be at bottom of drive in windows explorer to find easier.
