MarcoTips Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 when using the skipsettings switch the install.ini isn't loaded Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenjaminKalytta Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 It's loaded here. Be sure install.ini is in same folder as wihu.exe.Benjamin Kalytta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
syntax_13 Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 No problem benjamin.Actually, there are some other things i'd like to be added:1. a commandline parameter to skip the software install part. That way i could run your program twice. Once through cmdlines.txt to create an admin account and setup the computer settings. The second time after first logon with the new account to just run and install the software part, here it would skip the account screen.2. an option to rename the default Administrator account instead of creating a new admin3. a possibility to use the name and password of the newly created account as variables in the install.ini file (e.g. %newuser%, %newpassword%).This is used in the cmdlines.txt part to run a batch file which injects the autologon parameters into the registry and thus lets you autologon using your newly created account.

BenjaminKalytta Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 @syntax_13:You could use wihu /autoinstall 0 /username "New User" /userpassword 1234567890In this case, settings will not be skiped.Setting %NewUserPassword% is a security risc, don't know if it is so suitable.Changing Administrator isn't that easy. What about just disabling it?Nevertheless I added this feature at this moment. May be there will be a command line switch in future to disable it. %NewUserPassword% and %NewUserName% is now available.Benjamin Kalytta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
syntax_13 Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 Benjamin, maybe you could add a 'rename account' checkbox which calls this renuser program ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenjaminKalytta Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 Who programmed this tool? I'd prever to get the source and to include it directly in my code.Benjamin Kalytta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcoTips Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 when I use the switch /skipsettings, I get the screen below, but when I don't use the switch it shows up normalEDIT: just did another test, when I call wihu.exe from the commandline without the switch its also like in the screenshot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenjaminKalytta Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 @MarcoTips: Do you use the newest version. Please try to download it again (WIHU 1.6.1).Or may be your Ini file isn't correct?Benjamin Kalytta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcoTips Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 I'm using 1.6 just downloaded it again and I'm using the ini file that is provided, if I don't run it from the command line then it shows up properly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
syntax_13 Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 There seem to be two versions of renuser, one here and one here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarcoTips Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 I would like to make one more request, an option to specify the time when windows reboots, and make it visually so that the user sees when it is going to reboot, I would like to have this option so that the shell can load properly before it reboots Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenjaminKalytta Posted June 29, 2004 Share Posted June 29, 2004 It's not possible. It's not predicable how long installation process lasts.Benjamin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
