JFX Posted February 10, 2024 Author Posted February 10, 2024 Good you remind me about CompactOS and Server. It works so I'll remove this limitation. ! for WinSxS.ini will be supported. I think about making this ini optional. That should make things easier for people that just want to remove some files.

JFX Posted February 10, 2024 Author Posted February 10, 2024 \windows\system32\config should never be deleted. If it happens without you using telling it to do, then it's a bug. 1
Antonino Posted February 10, 2024 Posted February 10, 2024 (edited) u referring to the whole folder and subfolders and files I presume. me I have tried !ing all those entries wherever I found I had them \ed, but there is still something that prevents winntsetup from loading system 0x3 and software 0x3. what else coud it be? oh btw, there is another one that cannot derive from users\default\ntuser.dat, so I guess I will have to revise the list and ! the \users\default entry as well. btw, no issues instead if I delete some files in the config after it has loaded the registry, on an ex-post-facto basis.

jaclaz Posted February 14, 2024 Posted February 14, 2024 @JFX There is an user of your nice WINNTSETUP that for *some reasons* (I will also post in site and forum issues) cannot register here on MSFN. He posted on reboot.pro, here: http://reboot.pro/index.php?showtopic=22827 what he asks for seems to me reasonable, maybe you can suggest a way (or officially exclude there is one) to directly install on a VHD. jaclaz
JFX Posted February 14, 2024 Author Posted February 14, 2024 I would say steve6375 has already given the right answer. WinNTSetup only applies the WIM to the VHD and create boot files. The image is still in sysprep phase and therefor will try to "specialize" the BCD store on first boot. If he immediately boot that VHD with Ventoy it will cause that error. I don't know how Ventoy boot it, but i guess it uses a virtual boot drive like NTBOOT. And that can't be seen later in the boot process. For the "hidden menu" he will need to use newer version. 1

JFX Posted February 16, 2024 Author Posted February 16, 2024 Thanks, added and also re-added offreg.dll.

JFX Posted February 18, 2024 Author Posted February 18, 2024 That path is invalid, some API's will misunderstand "..\Tools" to be the parent directory. I doubt you could even open that folder in windows explorer.
sharicov@gmail.com Posted February 18, 2024 Posted February 18, 2024 (edited) Server 2022 getting following error with 5.3.4: "The code execution cannot proceed because BCDBoot.exe was not found". 5.3.3b works perfectly well on the same PC. Edited February 18, 2024 by sharicov@gmail.com
JFX Posted February 18, 2024 Author Posted February 18, 2024 Not sure why you have missing system files, but you can always download all requires files. WinNTSetup_x64.exe download
