All I can say is try it and see for your self.

If feel uncofortable with one large script you could do smaller scripts like so:

WinNT.sif

[GuiRunOnce]
"%systemdrive%\Software\CD-DVD_Tools.cmd"
"%systemdrive%\Software\Media_Tools.cmd"
"%systemdrive%\Software\System_Tools.cmd"
"%systemdrive%\Software\Shell_Tools.cmd"

CD-DVD_Tools.cmd

cmdow @ /HID
@echo off

for %%i in (C: D: E: F: G: H: I: J: K: L: M: N: O: P: Q: R: S: T: U: V: W: X: Y: Z:) do if exist %%i\WIN51 set CDROM=%%i

SET KEY=HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnceEx

REG ADD %KEY% /V TITLE /D "Installing Applications 1" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\005 /VE /D "Installing App 1" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\005 /V 1 /D "%CDROM%\Software\App1a.exe /s" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\010 /VE /D "Installing App 2" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\010 /V 1 /D "%CDROM%\Software\App2a.exe /s" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\015 /VE /D "Installing App 3" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\015 /V 1 /D "%CDROM%\Software\App3a.exe /s" /f

start /wait rundll32.exe iernonce.dll,RunOnceExProcess

Media_Tools.cmd

cmdow @ /HID
@echo off

SET KEY=HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnceEx

REG ADD %KEY% /V TITLE /D "Installing Applications 2" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\005 /VE /D "Installing App 1" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\005 /V 1 /D "%CDROM%\Software\App1b.exe /s" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\010 /VE /D "Installing App 2" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\010 /V 1 /D "%CDROM%\Software\App2b.exe /s" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\015 /VE /D "Installing App 3" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\015 /V 1 /D "%CDROM%\Software\App3b.exe /s" /f

start /wait rundll32.exe iernonce.dll,RunOnceExProcess

Any ways every thing will get installed prior to full login...at the same time as RunOnceEx normally executes.

start /wait rundll32.exe iernonce.dll,RunOnceExProcess

The above code is what forces the execution right then and there...not on reboot...not any time else...try it

Any ways I'll stop trying to sale you on the idea...doesn't matter if you use it or not...just an option. :)

Well any that need to reboot to complete should be on the tail end of your scripts....since forcing the execution of RunOnceEx prior to that actual reboot would probably screw things up. Same thing would apply to Alanoll's method.

This is for you all that like to play with code...

The thing I did with mine is switch over to the default profile so when I run the application installation from the runonceEX they are being install into the default profile..

read this post on how to switch to the default profile...

http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showto...=0entry182275

I will try to upload a zip file so you look over the code all you will have to do is insert you installation run keys... I use batch and vbs files to install things I use the keys to call the batch files...

You will have to change the XPCD to your path,,

I use a enviroment varible to point me at the D:\XPCDInstall folder...

I add a line code in the HIVESYS.INF so when it lights of my XPCD = D:\XPCDInstall

HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment","windir",0x00020002,"%SystemRoot%"
HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment","XPCD",0x00020002,"D:\XPCDinstall"

HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Executive","AdditionalCriticalWorkerThreads",0x00010003,0

I also included a batch to run regedit after each step.. just rename the EditRegister.txt when you are done,, also close the regedit before it is time to reboot so the rest of the code will run

I inserted it so you can have 30 seconds to look at the runonex keys...

I also included a nice and clean way to complete clean up.. the clean up is done after the last reboot and right before it logs you back in this way all open files are closed and not active... You cannot delete open or inuse files..

open this files and change the name of the folders to delete to yours,,,

CleanUpFinish.vbs

and this file I didn't included cause you will have to do your own links replacement

ICNSetupUnHide.vbs This one puts back my caller ID startup short cut

On Error Resume Next 
'Declare var's and objects
Dim WshS, fso, sysr, sysd, home, aup, cpf, pf, up, XPCD

Set WshS = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

'Expand Environment
'Create const's to spare time and place
sysr = WshS.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%SystemRoot%")
sysd = WshS.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%Systemdrive%")
home = WshS.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%Homepath%")
aup = WshS.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%AllUsersProfile%")
cpf = WshS.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%CommonProgramfiles%")
pf = WshS.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%Programfiles%")
up = WshS.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%UserProfile%")
XPCD = WshS.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%XPCD%")

fso.CopyFile XPCD & "\ICNSetup\U.S. Robotics Internet Call Notification.lnk" , aup & "\Start Menu\Programs\Startup\U.S. Robotics Internet Call Notification.lnk", true

*** NOTE***

Also to you all that like to play wth code the same thing goes here as with all code you will nned to modify to meet your needs,,,

I think I got it all if not just yell

Enjoy

Mac!

LOOK ON PAGE THREE for the updated CODE all dressed up!

Also what do you do if any programs drop runonceEX keys back in that need to be pulled before your next set of keys..

For me it is easier to do code in small chunks called subroutines

that just have a long list..

this way you can test a subroutines out without having to run all the code..

Mac!

Here is a new package all dressed up! :thumbup

All the windows are the same size

you can look in the code to see how I pulled it off

I spaced the high and low number apart so just keep the key numbers in between the ranges you can look at the code and see how it was done...

Right now there is ten lines at the most just keep the program keys balanced to the spacers...

you can add or take away to your liking...

same here follow the other post and get on the hidden default profile..

also look at the cleanup it is nice safe and easy clean up..

EnJoY!

Mac!

Well its been a long time since I've ever really done any programming but I know and understand most of the current conecpts. :)

Really there shouldn't be any values needing to be pulled from the runonceEX key. IE or what ever will likely name its sub key out side of the naming convention used by us....thus IE might have a sub key called "ie_vxd_replace" or the like that wouldn't be over writen by some thing called "045".

Also when apps add those sub keys they are assuming that you are fully logged in...not in the pre-login state that you are currently...which is what they are needing to preform what ever actions they need done. So really them being forced to run while in this state shouldn't be harmful at all.

As for breaking things up I gave an example on page 2 of running multiple files doing this.

Well here it is again just to save time hunting.

WinNT.sif

[GuiRunOnce]
"%systemdrive%\Software\CD-DVD_Tools.cmd"
"%systemdrive%\Software\Media_Tools.cmd"
"%systemdrive%\Software\System_Tools.cmd"
"%systemdrive%\Software\Shell_Tools.cmd"

Thus like you said its easier to hunt through and code...plus to debug.

I have no doubts that your method works as you have written, but I do think this way applys more cleanly...well codes more cleanly. :)
