nlite.inf missing in c:\windows\system32

[KAR]

Hi all,

After the Install of a Unattended install of XP I'm getting the message the nlite.inf is missing when opening the windows software list to add or remove windows software. When I expand the file from i386\NLITE.IN_ to c:\windows\system32\nlite.inf it works fine.

Am I doing something wrong? I assume the files should have been copied during the install of my windows?

Thanks

Correct it should be copied to %WinDir%\system32\inf (hidden folder, you can get to it by typing INF in the Run... box)

And yes if you delete it it breaks Add/Remove Windows Components, another fix would be to open sysoc.inf and delete this line

nLite=ocgen.dll,OcEntry,nLite.inf,HIDE,7
