danpye Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Like I said, I can get the explorer.exe to launch, but only as a file browser, not as the actual shell. (btw - in order to do this, i had to chance the USERPROFILE env var from x:\windows\sytem32\config\systemprofile to x:\Users\default )When I go into the winlogon reg key and change the SHELL entry from the cmd /k cmd.exe to explorer.exe, then open taskmanager, kill explorer.exe and relaunch it, I see the little blurb about 'Preparing windows ' - Windows update, etc.. (small grey screen at upper right corner), but the actual GUI never launches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ludo Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 Hello Kullenen_AskAlso i managed to change language of pe's. A little hard work but it's also possible.You can change language in a live PE (With Panel configuration, change language) or in WIM files ?

Kullenen_Ask Posted April 29, 2012 Author Share Posted April 29, 2012 I can only give a procmon log file if it will be usefull to see called files and registry. I do not have exact registry and files list. Just i checked if it works and not and it works. Wim file is 360mb with lots of files with printer support. Remote desktop probaby can work under 300mb. Profilling continue to work. In near future i can just boot to a command shell run remote desktop, grab needed files list and get list the minimum files.

Kullenen_Ask Posted May 1, 2012 Author Share Posted May 1, 2012 First i do not advice to use sp1 winpe, i do not see any point to use it. I did not know "all.wpf" and "core.wpf" are txt files before you mention here, do not have any idea what for they will be usefull to edit, only i am sure they need for profilling to work. I never had black screen when i delete files in winpe, maybe i know what to delete. i cant start explorer.exe (when i start it , it makes nothing) (Hard to say the reason from just 2 words)in taskmgr i cant see any adapter Can be permission error or missing stuff[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\Class\{4D36E972-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002bE10318}][HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM_00\ControlSet001\Control\Network][HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE_00\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\NetworkCards][HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE_00\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\NetworkList][HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE_00\Microsoft\Network]Linkage,Adapters,Interfaces subkeys of servicesi can run mediaplayer with video , but nosound[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE_00\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\MMDevices] ***[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE_00\Microsoft\Multimedia][HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE_00\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Audio][HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM_00\ControlSet001\services\AudioEndpointBuilder][HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM_00\ControlSet001\services\Audiosrv][HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM_00\ControlSet001\services\MMCSS][HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM_00\ControlSet001\Control\Class\{4D36E96C-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}]Check keys and files in that keys[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE_00\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\MCI][HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE_00\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\MCI Extensions][HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE_00\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\MCI32]What a huge list of service loading from inf files.

Kullenen_Ask Posted May 1, 2012 Author Share Posted May 1, 2012 (edited) 367mb boot.wim with printer and remote desktop support. Did not optimized. It's converted from base english winpe to turkish winpe because english one auto loads all the drivers by itself. I could not remake same again. Maybe needs some more fixes.I played with win 8 release preview today. It looks promising. i think we will see very good stuff as soon as it rtms. 285mb Edited June 3, 2012 by Kullenen_Ask Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreatG Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 On your post #181 you say you were able to get explorer.exe to work. I've been pulling my hair out trying to build my 7pe with explorer to work, no luck. I'm somewhat computer savvy and I'm willing to follow a complicated procedure if you have one. I can edit registry, mount images and can almost make a good ISO. I'm not looking for anything fancy, just a desktop in my 7pe. Could you do me the grand favor and explain the steps to do that? I've tried talking to someone on Reboot.pro and I still can't get this "seemingly" simple thing to work.I would greatly appreciate it.Thanks, GreatG.

Kullenen_Ask Posted July 23, 2012 Author Share Posted July 23, 2012 (edited) I never made ram booting full windows builds before, because i do not know to do it. I just make winpe builds. This one is from a russian developer yahoo002, AEK or whatever. He is coder of inftoreg.exe tool and i had it years before. Today i decided to convert it from russian to my own language and modify to work better than it built. It is full windows that boots to ram. Works like winpe but it is not (maybe hybrid i did not investigated so much). User control panel fully works. Directly boots to local account. Everything that is not works in a winpe session are works in it. It needs more work on it yet. 493mb boot.wim and can boot with 1gb ram. Of course it says nongenuine and desktop warns about it.
