Becuase youre arabic and im a jew so i was wondering if you hate me so do you?

@DuduMan

If you want you can make a copy of the file "eng-refrence.lng" and translate this new file with hebrew language.

After you've made the translation, you just need to put your new file renamed "Hebrew.lng" inside the folder "langs" and select this one with the Tab: Language, with 7Customizer!

Thanks to Blue for give us the possibility to have the software with a lot of languages!

Have fun!

Regards.

hey.

i have a problem with this program. i can´t add patches. -> unexpected error

@Hopie

Maybe the reason is you are trying to install the tool "KB947821-v4-x64" who need to validate your Windows version (Genuine).

Some informations here:

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=de&FamilyID=914fbc5b-1fba-4bae-a7c3-d2c47c6fcffc

Extract: "Important: This update is offered on Windows Update only to computers that have a condition that the tool could resolve."

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/947821/de

Can you integrate others updates?

I see inside the log file that you have a subfolder:

"H:\Win7\Win7x64\sources\install.wim"

Try to just make a single folder => H:\Win7\sources\install.wim

(And you need to have the same architecture x64 in your computer. But I think is your case!)

I hope that will help you!

@grabben @ajdee

in 0.4.2a I made some changes to the eng-refrence.lng so make sure you include these changes.

Nope. I do not. Feel free and translate it.

I do not think this is an update. It is a tool. Anyways, I will check it out and see.

Hey

First of all, I wanna thank you for your wonderful program

I'm new to the "unattended windows" world, but i'm learning quickly

I've got lots of questions ^.^

Hope you'll have some time to answer

- As I said, I'm new in making unattended windows but, i choose to customize the ULTIMATE version of Windows 7, wich I think is index 5 in the install.wim.

But in the log i see many index 4 instead ! Do I misunderstood something ? :/

- About the integration of themes. I love adding themes to my windows but they are not just a .thempack file...

Would it be possible to integrate themes that need a patching version of uxtheme.dll, themeui.dll and shsvcs.dll ?

Those are generally a .theme file and a folder.

- Also, would it be possible to customize the windows orb (wich need to replace the explorer.exe) ?

- And finally, I saw that your program is not open source, would it be possible that ... ?

In fact, I would love to see in the log the commands that the program uses in imagex, dsim, etc. (In order to learn)

Thanks a lot again for your amazing program

Keep up the good work

pollop.

PS : Sorry if my english's not perfect, I'm french

Hello pollop!

Yes it's correct!

With Windows 7 x64 you have 4 Editions:

1) Windows 7 Édition Familiale Basique

2) Windows 7 Édition Familiale Premium

3) Windows 7 Professionnel

4) Windows 7 Édition Intégrale

And for Windows 7 x86 you have 5 Editions:

1) Windows 7 Édition Starter

2) Windows 7 Édition Familiale Basique

3) Windows 7 Édition Familiale Premium

4) Windows 7 Professionnel

5) Windows 7 Édition Intégrale

You can see that inside the folder "sources" in your DVD Windows 7 and you have these files for Windows 7 x86:

1 - install_Windows 7 HOMEBASIC.clg

2 - install_Windows 7 HOMEPREMIUM.clg

3 - install_Windows 7 PROFESSIONAL.clg

4 - install_Windows 7 STARTER.clg

5 - install_Windows 7 ULTIMATE.clg

Inside the sources folder for Windows 7 x64 there is no:

install_Windows 7 STARTER.clg

For the others questions, Blue can give us answers!

Welcome.

What myselfidem is correct. Also, when you choose the installation source, the list

of editions will appear in the list. Also the list appears in your log. You could post your log so we could help you more.

About the integration of themes. I love adding themes to my windows but they are not just a .thempack file...

Would it be possible to integrate themes that need a patching version of uxtheme.dll, themeui.dll and shsvcs.dll ?

Those are generally a .theme file and a folder.

Hmmm. I could look into that.

Also, would it be possible to customize the windows orb (wich need to replace the explorer.exe) ?

I was looking in this yesterday. I think it could be done. All we need is to replace some images in explorer.exe

And finally, I saw that your program is not open source, would it be possible that ... ?

In fact, I would love to see in the log the commands that the program uses in imagex, dsim, etc. (In order to learn)

If you go to 7Customizer work directory you will see some batch files. Edit these files with notepad and you will

see the commands. I recommend doing that before hitting the apply button.
