Thanks for the translation. While you're at it, Final version will have 2 more:

1439, "Restore Classic Menus"
1440, "Always show the full context menus"

There are several questions ...

There are several questions ...
1) I pack your program into one file "SFX" of the program "7zSFX_Constructor" and after I close the "WinNTSetup v5.0 Beta" outside 2 files are created "WinNTSetup.ini" and "WinNTSetup_mru.txt".  This is not convenient for me, because the settings file is not read from the inside of the SFX, but from a new, external file. Also, I have created a file with my file ISO/WIM/ESD, it is also created a new one outside and it is of course empty. How can you do as before reading from the unpacked SFX?
2) I created a file CMD and it starts up to "7zSFX_Constructor" and scans all disks creating a file "WinNTSetup_mru.txt" with my file ISO/WIM/ESD and your program picks up the list by displaying it, but can you embed something like that into your program?

CMD Code

echo [Source_NT6]>>WinNTSetup_mru.txt
@echo
  setlocal enabledelayedexpansion
    for /l %%i in (65, 1, 90) do (
      cmd /c exit /b %%i
      2>nul dir /b /s !=exitcodeascii!:\*.iso >>WinNTSetup_mru.txt
      2>nul dir /b /s !=exitcodeascii!:\*.wim >>WinNTSetup_mru.txt
      2>nul dir /b /s !=exitcodeascii!:\*.esd >>WinNTSetup_mru.txt
    )
  endlocal
echo [Drivers_NT6]>>WinNTSetup_mru.txt
echo [UnattendedFile_NT6]>>WinNTSetup_mru.txt
echo [RegTweaks_NT6]>>WinNTSetup_mru.txt
echo [OEM_NT6]>>WinNTSetup_mru.txt
echo [RunAfter_NT6]>>WinNTSetup_mru.txt
echo [Source_NT5]>>WinNTSetup_mru.txt
echo [Drivers_NT5]>>WinNTSetup_mru.txt
echo [UnattendedFile_NT5]>>WinNTSetup_mru.txt
echo [RegTweaks_NT5]>>WinNTSetup_mru.txt
echo [OEM_NT5]>>WinNTSetup_mru.txt
echo [RunAfter_NT5]>>WinNTSetup_mru.txt
echo [VHD]>>WinNTSetup_mru.txt
exit /b

 

1049.dll

1) It saved the window position and MRU outside the SFX, so it won't be lost.
You could make it unaware of the SFX, by removing the environment variable with CMD:

set 7zSfxFolder36=

Or change "SfxFolder" Unicode string in the SFX.exe

2) That would make the start very slow, but I will think about it

Getting BSD with final Win 11 V21H2 x64 on first boot with WinNTSetup 5.0 b4

With WinNTSetup 5.0 Final getting "windows setup could not configure windows to run on this computer's hardware." error message. (on computer that supports and runs native installed Win 11 V21H2 x64

Edited October 6, 20214 yr by sharicov@gmail.com

is there a .ini entry to "Add Drivers to WinRE" ?

@sharicov@gmail.comtry
try normal windows setup instead.

 

@Sonic
Yes, Ctrl+S works for this option, too.

Edited October 6, 20214 yr by JFX

@JFX - solved by installing with winntsetup from vmware workstation and exporting the vhd file out. Suppose it can be related to changes BCD mechanism. 

Also normal windows setup is no more supporting installation to usb sdd that was working previously. 

Glad you make it.
Indeed, the update of the boot configuration often causes that error message.
I have never found out what's exactly the problem is.

Even with the same BCD file, it does not always happen.

I did a quick compare between v4.6.5 and 5.0 installing Win11 Pro and noticed v5 has

Using user defined unattend.xml: U:\SwApps\Tools4Maint\WinNTSetup\WinNTSetup_v5\\unattend\

whereas on v4.6.5 there is no such msg. Is the Win7-11-Select.xml applied in any way on v5, but not on V4 and
will this conflict with my unattend.xml which I normally copy to  \Windows\Panther\ and what does this WinNTSetup unattend actually do?

Other than that, Win11 installed fine, but I only booted into sysprep and did not go further. I tried Mode: wimboot on V5 and Win11 would not install and died.

All my drives are BIOS-MBR and was surprised Win11 did not complain and let me install on  my test partition.

Win7-11-Select.xml (a simple option for fully unattend installs) is only applied if you choose it.

With WinNTSetup there are not complaints about hardware restrictions, but it does not mean it will work. 

The unattend path was blank on both v4 and v5 runs, but  V5 looks like it used the xml according to the message. I did not choose that option in either version and used the same ini.

WinNTSetup 5.0.1

- Win11: disabled buggy Mica effect
- Win11: use new font only, if system font is Segoe UI
- fixed scaling with higer system fonts
- fixed combobox flyout high for high dpi systems
- fixed wrong log line
- ini load/save dialogs remember last selection

File for startup is named like for x64 bit system "WinNTSetup_x64.exe".  Does it mean that the program will not run on x32 systems ? 

Can we expect support for x32 bit systems as well ?

Windows 7x32 . 

Thank you , the program is very good .
