Grizzly Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 I try to install WinXP x64 (SP2) with German MUI pack.I changed Program Files locations in winnt.sif:ProgramFilesDir="\Programme"CommonProgramFilesDir="\Programme\Gemeinsame Dateien"ProgramFilesDir(x86)="\Programme(x86)"CommonProgramFilesDir(x86)="\Programme(x86)\Gemeinsame Dateien"After installation there are the following program directories created too:C:\Program Files (x86)C:\Program Files (x86)(x86)Latter is containing some files (e.g. Netmeeting software).Doing some research in registry I found following corresponding wrong keys, where theprogram files location change did not has taken place, e.g.:HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersionCommonFilesDir = C:\Program Files (x86)(x86)\CommonProgramFilesDir = C:\Programs Files (x86)(x86)Does anybody know whether there is patch for this setup configuration error?Or how to write a repair script to be integrated in the setup?Second question I have is regarding the MUI setup.I did it by let setup calling muisetup.exe /i 0407 /d 0407 /r /t during unattended setup.Afterwards I noticed MUI installed in default program dir ("Program Files"),i.e. MUI is ignoring changed program file location.It does so when installing MUI manually too.I can't find any switch of muisetup to change target directory. An answer file mui.txt is ignored too.thx for any suggestions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark-Fiber61 Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 (edited) Hello. I ran into the same issue myself yesterday. I saw your post and just changed the following below, after the OS installed. Is there a way that you can insert some sort of command or batch file to change the registry settings to the ones below when you set up the winnt.sif?? After i made this change everything now defaults to D: . Only thing i have in C: is the windows folder, I386, and the AMD64 folder. Why do i have the AMD64 folder on C:\?? don't know lol just though i would place it in there.CommonFilesDir REG_SZ D:\Program Files\Common FilesCommonFilesDir (86) REG_SZ D:\Program Files(86)\CommonProgramFilesDir REG_SZ D:\Program Files(x86)ProgramFilesDir (x86) REG_SZ D:\Program Files Edited April 12, 2008 by Dark-Fiber61 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
