oao, please see my attached screen shot. Just click on the Preset word in the RED ellipse.

I now see there was some confusion on my part regarding WMP11: I confused wmp with .net frame. According to your ini, WMP11 and its hotfixes go into Hotfix section, without the wmp11 slipstreamer.

Right, the WMP11 Slipstreamer must be installed on your system but not included within nLite.

I use Kurt_Aust's method for installing .NET Framework, as follows:

Rem .NET 3.5
%Source%AddOns\dotnetfx35.exe /Passive /NoRestart
%Source%AddOns\NDP20SP2-KB958481-x64.exe /Passive /NoRestart
%Source%AddOns\NDP20SP2-KB974417-x64.exe /Passive /NoRestart
%Source%AddOns\NDP30SP2-KB958483-x64.exe /Passive /NoRestart
%Source%AddOns\NDP35SP1-KB958484-x64.exe /Passive /NoRestart
%Source%AddOns\NDP35SP1-KB963707-x64.exe /Passive /NoRestart
%Source%AddOns\WindowsServer2003.WindowsXP-KB961118-x64-ENU.exe /Passive /NoRestart
%Source%AddOns\WindowsServer2003-KB968930-x64-ENG.exe /Passive /NoRestart

You could just place these into the RunOnce section in the Unattended section and place the required files in a folder called AddOns which is in the source folder. Enjoy, John.

Yes, I finally figured out the Preset button a few minutes before I read your reply. Would have been better to name it Save. What is Tray button for?

Where should I install the wmp11 slipstreamer -- anywhere?

I noticed that boooggy has 9 more hotfixes on his wmp11 list than you -- any particular reasons you don't?

Are there any of the directory names hardwired into nLite, or are they all at my discretion?

Thanks.

Tray button is to minimize it to tray (next to time, volume etc.)

oao, I get my update list from Kurt_Aust's tutorial. Is booogy running x64? Install WMP11 Slipstreamer in the normal Program Files (x86) folder. Enjoy, John.

No, but I looked systematically for all boooggy's x64 equivalent KBs and I found them with the exception of two. The question is why aren't they required by Aust?

When Aust provides directory names to put files in, are they obligatory or discretionary?

Thanks.

You need to ask Kurt_Aust.

You can name the files/folders anything you wish, as long as you are consistent. Enjoy, John.
