HFEXPERT UNDO

[Squeeto]

Hi all,

If I slipstream in a few progs with the HFEXPERT folder, how can I later remove these?

When do you decide to slipstream over the usual $OEM$ type install?

I want to put a small app in HFEXPERT\WIN\SYSTEM32 and include an inf file. Does the inf still go in HFSVPK?

[Oleg_II]

Yes, of course. You can just delete files after installation in SYSTEM32 folder (the problem could be only if you add a DLL and register with that INF file - in this case you have to unregister it first).

If you want to remove files from SOURCESS before the installation you'd better remove their entries in LAYOUT.INF and TXTSETUP.SIF or you will have errors about missing files during install.

You are right - EXE files go to HFEXPERT\WIN\SYSTEM32 and INF files go to HFSVPK.

Please remember that we are talking about EXE files that run without installation. Those could be commandline tools and some little usefull appz.

Thanks Oleg_II,

Those could be commandline tools and some little usefull appz.

I was thinking about a little defrag tool called dirms and a gui

[Oleg_II]

Link to the gui for DIRMS?

[Squeeto]

Sorry, shortcut to dirms_gui.exe

I also put in myuninstaller. Where would you put the shortcut?

I was thinking in System Tools or Settings.

Is it posible to put it back in Control Panel where Add/Remove used to be?

Just realized there is a gui version of dirms or one that comes with a frontend; I use the dos version and wrote a little gui myself.

[Oleg_II]

Unfortunately I don't know how to put a shortcut to the Control Panel if not with a CPL file.

And I meant could you give me a link to the DIRMS_GUI.EXE?

[Squeeto]

I think we posted simultaniously (read my edit).

I have a very limited gui where you can only choose which drive(s) you defrag and pack.

Want it?

[Oleg_II]

Would try

I have a link on my computer at work to make custom control panel icons. It's pretty easy to use. I'll post back on Monday.

[Squeeto]

ok

dirms_gui.exe

[Oleg_II]

Wow! Good utility!

Where do you usually post about your little pieces of software?

[Squeeto]

Haven't got much but I will post (msfn.org) anything I find.
