Cleanup1 now, Cleanup2 Next Logon?

[a06lp]

Subject says it all:

I want to run some cleanup processes right away, and some AFTER a reboot.

if i have cleanup1.cmd, and cleanup2.cmd, how do i make sure that only cleanup1 runs now, and cleanup2 runs later?

I am using WPI2.9 to call cleanup1, if that is any help...

In cleanup1.cmd call a registry file which adds cleanup2.cmd to RunOnceEx. If you search the forum there is more info on this.

[a06lp]

could you be more specific?

and how does the computer reconize the difference between the processes being called by this runonceex and the ones for next time?

A self-deleting startup.cmd (or whatever name) put in Startup folder should do the job.

What's wrong with this simple idea?

because, for some reason, my commands won't delete my "pdvd" (powerdvd5) folder, and my "WPI" folder. I think because the programs are still in use.

Therefore, I think I have to delete all the OEM stuff FOLLOWING the first reboot, as opposed to during first logon, after all installations, before first reboot.

EDIT:

FYI, here's my cleanup code (it deletes everything EXCEPT "pdvd" and "WPI"):

RD /S /Q %systemdrive%\Install

its probly cuz they are in use (like 10 ppl have told in your last 3 topics for this same thing)

Read near the end of this thread for my method.

At the end of my Cleanup1, i call Cleanup2 through the following command line :

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

REG ADD %KEY% /V TITLE /D "Installation des logiciels et configuration de Windows" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\101 /VE /D "Nettoyage de l'installation" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\101 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\Config\cleanup2.cmd" /f

It's quite simple and it works fine.
