[Help] SP2 / RunOnceEx.cmd

[Lucius Snow]

Hello all,

My first unattended CD is almost finished now . However, there're still a few things to fix. For example, i can't remove the "Help protect" step at the end of Windows installation.

In my winnt.sif, i first tried with :

AutomaticUpdates=yes

... and then with both :

AutomaticUpdates=yes

AutomaticUpdates=1

Here is now my full winnt.sif :

;SetupMgrTag

    MsDosInitiated="0"

    UnattendedInstall="Yes"

    AutomaticUpdates=yes

    AutomaticUpdates=1

I can get rid of it if i add "UnattendSwitch = Yes" but then it suppresses the user profile creation step which is just after. And i need to keep it (i won't add automaticaly the accounts in a .ini file because i'll use my CD on different PC).

I'm trying also to suppress the bubbles notifications of the security center. I've used the right reg tweaks to disable them :

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Security Center]"AntiVirusDisableNotify"=dword:00000001

"FirewallDisableNotify"=dword:00000001

"UpdatesDisableNotify"=dword:00000001

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Security Center]

"AntiVirusOverride"=dword:00000001

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Security Center]

"FirewallOverride"=dword:00000001

It does work but since the second logon only. If it's possible i'd like to shut it down completely since the first one. By the way, i'm using the RunOnceEx.cmd method.

One last question and i leave you alone ... Is it possible to run a popup at the end of the cleanup.cmd which prompts to ask the reboot of the machine ? The shutdown tool does it, but automaticaly.

Thanks a lot.

Well, i just tried by using oobeinfo.ini with SkipAutoUpdate=1 (switch which also disable the "Help Protect" ) but that page still appears

The only solution is to put UnattendSwitch = Yes but it skips the user profile creation step. And i need that !

I've looked in the CHM file and on the forum, i found no solution. Also, i'd like to skip the animation intro and the welcome page of oobe but nothing found neither.

It drives me nuts.

Any suggestions ?
