Squeeto Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 I'm here late again If you can think of other worthwhile folders other than anything in the program files folder, I'm sure I can incorporate it.Is this not possible or just unadvised? I had thought to put my new Media Player in the traditional location in Program Files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
x-pert Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 (edited) Personally I don't like xchm, because xchm can't correctly show ebooks in .chm format And great utility for checking are HTML Help runtime DLLs installed and registered correctly http://helpware.net/downloads/MJsDiag.zip B) Edited January 10, 2006 by x-pert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommyp Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 @Squeeto - Since I asked that question a few months back, HFSLIP was updated (thanks to Yzowl) for some great slipstreaming of additional folders, but the folders will only get copied to the %windir% folder. It's not possible to copy files to the Program Files at that stage of the game. Once I slipstreamed Firefox just to say I did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oleg_II Posted January 10, 2006 Author Share Posted January 10, 2006 x-pert Interesting program. You can locate which files you need exactly for reading CHM.But none of the needed DLL and OCX are on my system - I removed them from SOURCESS folder using reducing method of HFCLEANUP folder There are also two 3d party files - one DLL and one OCX that may be helpfull but I can't open the sites Will experiment.

Squeeto Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 No Program Files is ok. There is a lot of room on WINNT Thanks for all the diligent work on HFSLIP.S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
x-pert Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 TommyP,In HFEXPERT\WIN\SYSTEM32\ I put files addprog.cpi & addprog.cpl, after cabing process will be only addprog.cp_Is any possibility to fix this misunderstanding? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommyp Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 (edited) x-pert - Thanks for the info. I never really thought about filenames like that. Give me a few days to incorporate this request (if I can think of a good way). Edited February 22, 2006 by tommyp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murvun Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 (edited) I stumbled too upon this: updates.cpl requires updates.cpiand if I rename updates.cpl into updates2.cpl then updates2.cpi is required. :-(solution could be: because every file in HFEXPERT should be an additional file (and no replace - for replace we use FIX) we can give makecab an ascending target filename as HFEXP1.tx_, HFEXP2.tx_ (to seperate 2 files like *.cpi and *.cpl)REM SPECIAL FOLDERS DIR WORK\I386E /A:D /B >HFFLD.TXT FOR /F %%I IN (HFFLD.TXT) DO ( REM PREPARE FOLDERS IF NOT EXIST IF NOT EXIST SOURCESS\I386\%%I MD SOURCESS\I386\%%I REM GET NAMES OF HOTFIXES IN DIRECTORY DIR WORK\I386E\%%I /A-D /B /ON >HFFILES.TXT FOR /F %%J IN (HFFILES.TXT) DO ( IF NOT EXIST SOURCE\I386\%%I\%%J MAKECAB /D CompressionMemory=21 /D CompressionType=LZX WORK\I386E\%%I\%%J /L SOURCESS\I386\%%I IF EXIST SOURCE\I386\%%I\%%J COPY WORK\I386E\%%I\%%J SOURCESS\I386\%%I ) )should be changed into REM SPECIAL FOLDERS set /A PROBLEM=1DIR WORK\I386E /A:D /B >HFFLD.TXT FOR /F %%I IN (HFFLD.TXT) DO ( REM PREPARE FOLDERS IF NOT EXIST IF NOT EXIST SOURCESS\I386\%%I MD SOURCESS\I386\%%I REM GET NAMES OF HOTFIXES IN DIRECTORY DIR WORK\I386E\%%I /A-D /B /ON >HFFILES.TXT FOR /F %%J IN (HFFILES.TXT) DO ( IF NOT EXIST SOURCE\I386\%%I\%%J (IF NOT EXIST SOURCE\I386\%%I\%%~nJ.??_ MAKECAB /D CompressionMemory=21 /D CompressionType=LZX WORK\I386E\%%I\%%J /L SOURCESS\I386\%%IIF EXIST SOURCE\I386\%%I\%%~nJ.??_ MAKECAB /D CompressionMemory=21 /D CompressionType=LZX WORK\I386E\%%I\%%J HFEXP!PROBLEM!.tx_ /L SOURCESS\I386\%%I) IF EXIST SOURCE\I386\%%I\%%J COPY WORK\I386E\%%I\%%J SOURCESS\I386\%%I set /A PROBLEM=!PROBLEM!+1 ) )perhaps... but there is more to be done targetname should only adress hfexpert-files...don't know, if there are thousands of problems... updating the setup-files TXTSETUP.SIF DOSNET.INF and so on...ok, no solution - just a hind Better solution would be a special hfexpert.cab...

Tomcat76 Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 There are several solutions, yes. The easiest would be to not compress these files. Do you want them to be compressed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murvun Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 no - we don't want them to be compressed. Therefore: could we get our own hfexpert - subfolder WIN_UNCOMPRESSED ? (or similar) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomcat76 Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 I think that's making things too complicated (script-wise). If it's only cpl/cpi files then it's easier to filter them out. Do you know of any other "collisions" like this one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murvun Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 no, only this one .cpl with its .cpibtw: cpl means Control Panel Librarywhat is cpi? Cycles per Instruction, Cour pénale internationale, Corruption Perception(s) Index,Characters per inch, Carbon Preference Index or Continuous Process Improvement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomcat76 Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 (edited) Those "false positives" are really becoming a nuisance. AVG is the king of that. Avast (apart from winning another award very recently) seems to be one of the best at filtering reals from fakes.This one should be able to handle hidden files: HFSLIP_60309-exp2.7zEdit: Not quite. This one does: HFSLIP_60309-exp3.7zEdit 2: See March 9 release. Edited March 9, 2006 by Tomcat76 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
