Arrow22 Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 the thing that controls that(in xp you had that runonce key but in visat/7 its something else)thanks in advanceRunOnce is also in Vista but I know what phase of boot you are talking about.When an update is installed and Needs to complete after the next RebootCan you specify an update so I can test that?I am currently testing my Vista x86 installation disk andas I will be reinstalling Multiple times over the next 3 days, I would like to see if I can figure that out.

submix8c Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 here, then click the link in it. (a double-topic by OP)The OP is referring to IE8 and why it's saying "Installing Updates". IE8 has an "optional selection" to Update that must be "turned off".No magic here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbomcp Posted March 21, 2009 Author Share Posted March 21, 2009 i think any update that requires reboot(and maybe has files at work at the time of installing which is same thing actually:))will cause this thingi just cant figure out where it is exactly and what controls that gui:)could be nice to migrate my apps to running in this nice gui before login wouldnt it:)?

maxXPsoft Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 runoncex can still be used in Vista and I'm doing it with Win Seven also Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
submix8c Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 I think the OP misunderstands that any given "package" may have different silent/noreboot options (depending on what software created the package).It would be necessary to investigate that (type), then determine the method (switches), then put in into the RunOnce sequence.There is no "catch-all" method...
