@JFX still about wifi,

now I am just after checking my wife's laptop in device manager, and I see the wifi thing perfectly installed if that is what u mean, but still on the top right corner of the screen I am faced with the globe icon and no access to any wifi list as would be the case with normal full-install pre-minwin service. the os does not seem to care to even look for wifi points around. the hardware, as I said earlier, is ok. 

Good, next check if the service (WLANSVC) is running. and check wlan interfaces.

netsh wlan show interfaces

Maybe reapply reg file for classic taskbar flyout: MinWin\Default\Reg\SysTray_Network_Flyout.reg

 

@wuliyen 
There will be only a few bug fix releases, but I don't plan to add any new features.
WinNTSetup development is more or less frozen, but not yet discontinued.

thank u ever so much jfx,

the interface and service tests were successful, but the reg file would not want to merge.

the access point was detected, but when I entered the pw and pressed next it left me with an error message of the kind. the exception unknown software exception (0xc0000002) in the application at location 0x00007FFF69AE051C.

There is nothing I can do about.
Looks like MS did only update the ReFS driver, but forgot to update the boot loader.

  • 2 weeks later...

I just noticed that the bcdedit included in the WinNTSetup Tools directory has an invalid signature. What is the difference between that and the bcdedit in \system32 and why is it even included?

The one in system32 folder is to old for users of Windows 7 or 8, so a newer version needs to be downloaded.

Current ADK does not support Windows 7 therefore the files will be patched.

Just wanted to say wow, well done sir/madam/other, kudos!
Does this site have a thread search? I had a quick peak but couldn't see... or an FAQ sticky, to save you re-answering questions.

Thanks again 👍🏻

🆘 I don't want to reset yet as I don't have any recovery option, I've just tried to build my first win11, and think I've broke my BCD.

My disks (currently, after installing new "windows 11 reference" volume

disk 2 is my current c: , residing on disk 0 partition 2 i:\win11.vhdx

 Disk ###  Status         Size     Free     Dyn  Gpt
  --------  -------------  -------  -------  ---  ---
  Disk 0    Online          931 GB   675 GB        *
  Disk 1    Online          119 GB    55 GB
  Disk 2    Online           35 GB      0 B        *
  Disk 3    Online           50 GB  1024 KB
  Disk 4    Online           70 GB      0 B

Partitions on main disk - should I have used SYS partition for the new boot partition when installing to new vhd ?

partition 1 was S: - I removed, assigned S: to the FAT partition I created in the VHD volume

 Partition ###  Type              Size     Offset
  -------------  ----------------  -------  -------
  Partition 1    System             100 MB  1024 KB
  Partition 2    Primary            256 GB   229 MB

Disk 4 is the new vhd windows disk that was made

disk details

  Volume ###  Ltr  Label        Fs     Type        Size     Status     Info
  ----------  ---  -----------  -----  ----------  -------  ---------  --------
  Volume 7         WIN11REFSYS  FAT    Partition    128 MB  Healthy
  Volume 8     X   win11MAIN    NTFS   Partition     69 GB  Healthy

The other disks aren't important for boot.

The BCDEdit from C: 

 

Windows Boot Loader
-------------------
identifier              {current}
device                  locate=\windows\system32\winload.efi
path                    \windows\system32\winload.efi
description             Windows 11
locale                  en-us
inherit                 {bootloadersettings}
volumebandid            1
isolatedcontext         Yes

osdevice                partition=C:
systemroot              \windows
resumeobject            {062fd573-b645-11ee-bb50-fbd2e6a76d0a}
nx                      OptIn
bootmenupolicy          Standard
A device which does not exist was specified.

 

I noticed this after noticing the app appeared to close (I was awaiting system reboot, which I may have disabled)

If I reboot I fear I'm stuck unable to boot into anything, or even kicked out of C: ain't great.

Can anyone make any suggestions? Ideally bcdedit steps with any diskpart / bcdboot etc?

 

Thanks!!

issue.part3  - start) ... This looks good
https://woshub.com/how-to-repair-uefi-bootloader-in-windows-8/
but I don't have bootrec - I may be able to access as an emergency, from the usb media I used to build my first vhd on bare metal (winPE environment via shift+f10 at start-setup)

bootrec /fixboot
bootrec /scanos
bootrec /rebuildbcd

💡Boot Manager (Important!)

device should be system volume: according to the repair guide I shared ^

so partition=\Device\HarddiskVolume5 should be partition=\Device\HarddiskVolume1 for me (SYS partition is vol1 according to list vol)

Windows Boot Manager
--------------------
identifier              {bootmgr}
device                  unknown
path                    \EFI\Microsoft\Boot\bootmgfw.efi
description             Windows Boot Manager
locale                  en-us
inherit                 {globalsettings}
default                 {current}
resumeobject            {062fd573-b645-11ee-bb50-fbd2e6a76d0a}
displayorder            {current}
toolsdisplayorder       {memdiag}
timeout                 30

 

change: 

bcdedit /set {bootmgr} device partition=\Device\HarddiskVolume1

Following this I was able to point the current entry to the vhd files (this was failing with the invalid device error until I fixed unknown {bootmgr} device

But I couldn't see this with bcdedit, until I enumerated

I don't know if this is right...

C:\Windows\System32>bcdedit /v

(continue from post 1) The options I used at build time (S and X were partitions 1 and 2 on vhd)

Not sure what to try next 😟

I would say that the problem, you create the boot files inside the VHD.

You should select the bootable partition on local disk (I guess on disk 0).
