MHz Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 This is a non-install method. Have done for quite awhile with no problems. Half of the powertoys do not need installation in some way.1. Open the exe with WinRAR and extract Tweakui.exe.2. Add TweakUI to your system directory or unattend is $OEM$\$$\system32\.3. Merge the regfile. RegEdit /s file.reg can be used on it.4. TweakUI will display in your Control Panel.Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00; Add TweakUI to Control Panel; ============================[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{D14ED2E1-C75B-443c-BD7C-FC03B2F08C17}]@="Tweak UI""InfoTip"="Tweak your system"[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{D14ED2E1-C75B-443c-BD7C-FC03B2F08C17}\DefaultIcon]@="%SystemRoot%\\\\System32\\\\tweakui.exe,0"[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{D14ED2E1-C75B-443c-BD7C-FC03B2F08C17}\Shell][HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{D14ED2E1-C75B-443c-BD7C-FC03B2F08C17}\Shell\Open][HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{D14ED2E1-C75B-443c-BD7C-FC03B2F08C17}\Shell\Open\Command]@="tweakui.exe"[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{D14ED2E1-C75B-443c-BD7C-FC03B2F08C17}\ShellFolder]"Attributes"=dword:00000030[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ControlPanel\NameSpace\{D14ED2E1-C75B-443c-BD7C-FC03B2F08C17}]@="Add Tweakui to Control Panel" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LazyBoy Posted October 12, 2005 Author Share Posted October 12, 2005 I have $OEM$/$1 instead of $OEM$/$$, does that mean I put the .exe in $OEM$/$1/system32 ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MHz Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 (edited) No, just create the folders as I mentioned. It will be copied over to your system directory during textmode of setup.Edit: $$ = it will copy to Windows directory.

LazyBoy Posted October 12, 2005 Author Share Posted October 12, 2005 (edited) Ok, I have a book here that teaches about unattended setup and it says to create $OEM$/$1 to do silent install of 3rd party programs during Windows setupDoes my folder structure make any sense though?Edit: NM, got it from the guide here at MSFN? Thanks! Edited October 12, 2005 by LazyBoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpeshek Posted October 22, 2005 Share Posted October 22, 2005 TweakUI v2.10 runs like a standalone; i just put it into my start-> programs -> Tweak folder and run it from there when I need it; it doesn't actually get installed or registered into my Control Panel. $OEM$\$Docs\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Tweak\TweakUI.exe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
