The msi files are cached in a folder in the windows directory. The files are installed into the system directory.

TNX MHZ for this 1st step help.

Still I can NOT find the link to launch these powertows neither the .exe file (they're many .exe file system32 directory).

May someone tell me what .exe file coincide with each powertoys here above.

Get the msi files from the folder in the windows directory, then use a admin install on them. Example: "msiexec /a file.msi" to retrieve the files.

I use these:

Background switcher.

BgSwitch.dll

BGSwitch.exe

Magnifier.

Mag.dll

Virtual Desktop.

Msvdm.dll

Image resizer.

PhotoToys.dll

Just use Regsvr32 on the self registering dlls. Some of the powertoys are not as user friendly to setup. The ones I list are simple. Just add to $$ folder and register them later in windows setup.

May be is my fault, but i think there is a misunderstanding.

As you spook about "msi files are cached in a folder in the windows directory", " Regsvr32 on the self registering dlls" and "add to $$ folder and register them later in windows setup". I'm NOT looking for an UNattended installation!!!

The powertoys are already installed!!!, i'm looking for using them. I found the TweakUI and the Magnifier shortlinks enabling me launching/using them while

I can't found the ImageResizer, Slideshow, HTMLSlideShow and Timershot shortlinks.
