thanks it worked. but its nt saved into winntsetup.ini

can i request it to have it saved in ini? smth like

runafter=cmd /c "%input%"

preferably in winnt6\ready after oem line

Yes, it will be added as an ini option.
But after reviewing the code I think I'll change that function.
 

I guess v5 is Beta ready at the end of this month...

WinNTSetup 5.0 Beta 1

- mounting boot partition is disabled by default
- combobox list to select boot and installation drive
- MRU feature for most inputs
- mounted ISO in VHD menu will stay alive
- mounted ISO sources will be save with ISO names to ini
- regimport supports HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes (UsrClass.dat)
- regimport will effect all existing user profiles
- separate disable Windows Defender tweak (-nodefender command line)
 

fail to detect fs type if

open winnt > format > search location > error ntfs nt detected

works fine if, properly formatted > open winnt

nice gui for the dropdown tho

Not sure what you mean, the format dialog will only show file systems that are supported by windows format engine.

could nt reproduce the bug now. nt sure hw i did it.

it was nt detecting the hdd fs that i had it formatted using winntsetup "run diskpart script"

had been using the same script.

its working nw...

 

edit: the bug

run diskpart script > use the new dropdown menu to pick location, select the disk ( not refreshed) , nt able to pick

> use old search button, pick the location > it show as selected > continue with setup > please choose a ntfs drive.

 

usually after we used search button, and picked. the location info(size and fs) will show.

the above will show as blank(as if nt selected)

Is there an option to keep boot partition mounted ?
That can be handy if after WinNTSetup you wish to make modifications on hidden EFI drive by using BOOTICE.

When a combobox selection is overruled by  the drive selector then the description wrongly still corresponds to the combobox selection

Yes, can be set in the ini file.

[Options]
NoBootMount=0

can i get more details for this?

- command line source accepts wildcard

 

have not try hw it works. i assume it will be sysletter will be used by runafter cmd batch script using %sysletter% ?

or RunAfter=Y:\Programs\WinNTSetup3\Tools\*.cmd

drive combo looks good atm. and nice diskpart gui. i did mistakenly cleaned wrong drive before lol

I was tired to update my batch files for every new Win 11 ISO, so the following will pick the first matching iso: 

WinNTSetup_x64.exe NT6 -source:E:\ISOs\22*.iso

RunAfter does not have wildcard support. Variables can be accessed in a batch: 

%_build%
%_drivers%
%_source%
%_syspart%
%_tempdrive%

WinNTSetup 5.0 Beta 2

The program is working excellent and can be used for booting Windows 11x64 Applied in Compact LZX mode in VHD 

using WOF UnCompression of boot critical driver files in DriverStore according to [PrepopulateList] section of generated \Windows\System32\WimBootReCompress.ini file

How is determined from registry what drivers should be in the [PrepopulateList] section of WimBootReCompress.ini file ?

For Capture I think the [ExclusionList] section of WimScript.ini file can be enhanced and improved

so that it is more like the [ExclusionList] section of WimBootCompress.ini file that is normally used in Compact and WimBoot mode.

Windows 11x64 Compact LZX in VHD  UsedSize = 5.7 GB   -   Mini-11x64 Compact LZX in VHD as RAMDISK UsedSize = 2.1 GB

Very good work on trimming down Windows. If you only use this VHD for RAM booting, you could save roughly 80 MB of NTFS logging.
