cmdlines.txt question (with some regtweaks too)

[RichTJ99]

Hi all,

I was noticing that my cmdlines.txt file seems to be a bit different than others:

[COMMANDS]
"useraccounts.cmd"

"RunOnceEx.cmd"

The regtweaks file isnt mentioned here.

Its mentioned in my runonceex.cmd file.

I was curious though, certain tweaks (windows tour disable) wouldnt be applied until after the reboot (after runonceex.cmd is completely done).

One of the nice features in my regtweaks (amongst others) is the disabling of the windows security center.

If I have my regtweaks.reg file activated in the cmdlines.txt file, will that apply tweaks to early (and therefore not stick)?

Should I have 2 regtweaks type files? One with just the windows tour disable that is run during cmdlines.txt & then another run with the runonceex.cmd file?

Thanks,

Rich

You might have a look here.

Windows XP Setup Timeline

I personally prefer to run my registry tweaks from cmdlines.txt:

"REGEDIT /S regtweaks.reg"

The advantage of this methode is that because you did not logon with any particulair account (afaik the default user account is active at this stage of setup) your tweaks will be applied to your default user and therefore will be applied to any new account.

I Hope this makes something clear.
