Stand-Alone WPI Cd

[bober]

incase anyone else removes i.e. and wants to run wpi as a standalone cd.

Autorun.inf

[AutoRun]
open=START.cmd
icon=wpi.ico

START.cmd

REGEDIT /S hta.reg

start/wait "" C:\WINDOWS\system32\mshta.exe "%CD%\wpi.hta"

exit

hta.reg

;thanks Clint
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\.hta]
@="hta_auto_file"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\hta_auto_file\shell\open\command]
@="\"C:\\WINDOWS\\system32\\mshta.exe\" \"%1\""

place these 3 files in the WPI directory. they will silently reg mshta.exe and start WPI.hta.

Hehe, thats an old reggie right there

Actually you can ditch the hta.reg..

mshta will find it anyway if you use the %windir%\system32\mshta.exe "%CD%\wpi.hta" command....gives you

freedom to use the disc even in a secondary boot or such

I didn't knew that back then

NICE! but would be nicer if the CMD window dissapeared

add cmdow.exe in your WPI root

I got mine START.CMD:

%cdrom%\wpi\cmdow.exe @ /hid

REGEDIT /S hta.reg

start /wait %systemroot%\system32\mshta.exe "%CD%\wpi.hta"

exit

Yeah thats all fine and dandy except for almost every AV in the world now detects cmdow as a virus....
