Windows PXE Boot Fails to Capture Image
Tripredacus replied to bookie32's topic in Unattended Windows 7/Server 2008R2
My install doesn't have fonts for that locale either. Also there is no appropriate localisation for DISM, which you can find in the Deployment Tools folder. I also checked my ADK 10 install but it appears to be English only. -
Windows PXE Boot Fails to Capture Image
Tripredacus replied to bookie32's topic in Unattended Windows 7/Server 2008R2
It is the wrong DISM.exe. The one from the OS doesn't have /capture-image. In your AIK install, you need the DISM files from Tools\{arch}\Servicing. However you can also use the DISM from newer ADK too. -
If you make your own WinPE, it will boot to a command prompt by itself. This is handled by the startnet.cmd where you can put in your own menu. For modifying a Setup boot.wim, I'm not sure. I never figured out how that worked exactly. For using a winre.wim, you can add custom actions to the RECENV menu, as mentioned here: http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/142990-installing-windows-7-from-recovery-partition/#entry918385

Okay, let's discuss how to get rid of these processes...
Tripredacus replied to NoelC's topic in Windows 10
Perhaps due to all drivers having certificates, and Windows checks to see if certs are valid? -

You should put words that are not yours into quotes. I can't tell what is your writing without them. -
RocketTab may also be an extension added to your browser. What steps have you taken already? Malwarebytes should be able to remove this.

Windows PXE Boot Fails to Capture Image
Tripredacus replied to bookie32's topic in Unattended Windows 7/Server 2008R2
Try doing a capture with DISM instead. -
Have you run SFC already? Is this on a clean install or a modified OS? You've posted about that before and makes me wonder.

How to avoid being "upgraded to Win 10" against your will:
Tripredacus replied to dencorso's topic in Windows 8
The guy on Anandtech got his post contents from a post by a user on another forum. That user then later said a mistake was made. Either way, it is FUD unless actual proof can be shown. -
It seems that a file copy bug from the Windows NT 4 days still exists in Windows 10.

What is your licensing type for the VLSC download, KMS or MAK? In either case you would have a product key to put in the XML which would hide that prompt. This was how it was for earlier OS versions, where choosing to skip entering the product key would not mean the OS would activate afterwards. The Productkey you need in your XML is the activation key that you use in the Specialize pass. This will hide the Product Key prompt in OOBE.

Windows 10 10240 to 10586 upgrade change reports

Windows PXE Boot Fails to Capture Image
Tripredacus replied to bookie32's topic in Unattended Windows 7/Server 2008R2
What is your WinPE that you are capturing with? Using WDS default? MDT? Custom PE with DISM or Imagex? -
Doubtful. You are using the OS made from Media Creator or another source? The normal (manual) method of installing Windows 10 from the Free Upgrade ISO is to skip the product key entry. When this is done, then it uses a runtime key. I can only imagine this is where you got your ISO from, as if you got it from any other legitimate source you'd have the correct Product Keys to put in the XML.

If you use the download tool, I noticed it will automatically download the required updates before attempting to install Windows 10. After finding this method, I never try to get the update to show in Windows Update, because sometimes even after you get GWX onto the system, you STILL can't get it to install Windows 10. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/windows-10-upgrade Run the program that is downloaded from the Upgrade Now button.

The only 2 things I am sure about are slight GUI differences. However there are some bugs that exist in 10240 that I haven't had the chance to test in 10586, or seen anyone else test yet.

I did a Windows 10 upgrade test a couple days ago from Windows 8.1 and it upgraded to 10586 version of Windows 10. One thing different I noticed was that the context menu for the Start button is skinned differently now.

Ok I was just checking and the RAM is non-ECC. Sometimes (some versions, some situations) running memtest on ECC memory can generate errors. It doesn't seem to be the case for you here. At least there are 2 pieces in there, if one goes bad you only have to replace the one.

Any way to reveal "Super Hidden" Task Scheduler tasks?
Tripredacus replied to NoelC's topic in Windows 10
It appears that those 4 tasks are owned by the SYSTEM account. Only SYSTEM has Full Control of them in the registry. Running Task Scheduler as Administrator doesn't seem to be enough for them to show up. Maybe if you run schtasks.exe as System you could see them? Take a look at the answer on here for Windows 8: http://superuser.com/questions/497983/windows-8-waking-issues-maintenance-configurator-task-cannot-be-changed-or-d The elevation trick doesn't work for me. -

I doubt the RAM got warm enough to pull off what you are thinking. I also don't think memtest fixed anything. I have seen it where memtest will pass/fail with various configurations. For example, memtest would pass running tests on 2 sticks individually, but fail when they are together. Can you post a CPU-Z shot of the memory and SPD tabs?

Windows 10 SetupComplete Vs Windows 7
Tripredacus replied to aXeSwY's topic in Unattended Windows 10/11 Installation
Setupcomplete.cmd does not work on some editions, notably OEM ones. I'm guessing that would only leave Retail and VL editions, but not sure about the one made with Media Creator. -
IIRC, you get locked out of the OS. I'm also fairly certain that internet activation is available on XP, but otherwise I do know telephone activation is an option.
