WMP9 and system restore...

[Bâshrat the Sneaky]

My UXPCD is getting very close to the finishing touch... The only problem that's left is that at T-12 (when svcpack.inf runs) I'm getting this very, VERY annoying screen, that asks the following:

Are you sure you want to proceed installation of WMP9, while system restore is turned off? When system restore is turned off, you won't be able to un-install it.

I'm installing it like this: "WMP9.exe /Q:A /R:N" and system restore is turned off when cmdlines.txt ran.

How can I prevent WMP9 setup from doing this?

(not by turnning sr on again, and off at first logon or anything alike plz..)

thx in advance

sorry but want 2 know haw to turn system restore off ?

thanks

[XtremeMaC]

easiest way is to modify sr.inf

put this in there

[Version]Signature="$Windows NT$"

LayoutFile=layout.inf

[DefaultInstall]

[DarkBringer]

Maybe easier?

WINNT.SIF :

[Components]    SystemRestore=off

[[BM]Crusher]

I use the WINNT.SIF [Components] SystemRestore=off (if this actually works)

I install the Media Player 9 and Movie Maker 2 file via svcpack.inf

It works perfectly...

[XtremeMaC]

using SystemRestore=off

just makes the system restore off which means, the hdd space reserved is set to 0. by removing the inf entries it doesn't even get installed, u don't see the system restore tab...

I dunno i like it this way...

I think this is the easiest way of all:

I've found something very interesting over here.

Deployment pack for WMP9! Direct download link.

Now you can set up everything before! (settings, policies, standard media player yes or no,etc.)

[nonone]

thanks for all of you ,realy thank you all .

[Bâshrat the Sneaky]

OK, the deployment pack turned out to be anything but usefull...

What can you do with it?

1) WMP = set standard , Y/N

2) Settings included in mpsetup.msi , Y/N

==> if N, go to 3)

==> if Y, settings from this PC or a target one (copy from target pc to correct folder)

==> if Y, edit Group Policies , Y/N

3) The new mpsetup will be created.

No (extra) options for unattended install...

Sure there isn't a mistake in the switches above? It doesn't work here... :s (Which is the reason I've searched and found WMP deployment pack
