nhelper problem

[MadsJ]

I FOUND HOW TO FIX IT!!!

1. Go to c:/windows/inf (folder is hidden)

2. Find nlite.inf

3. Remove the last 4-5 lines (the with "nhelper" in)

4. Save the file.

5. Reboot!!

Also, what is this : http://www.german-nlite.de/index.php?showtopic=8263 : The germans have a fix?

First place, this tool nhelper.exe was ment to help but instead creates such a mess...

Well, in fact the problem was sloved years ago by a romanian(me) , since nuhi decided to add this tool, a bad decision I may add, you got the ideea but there's a much easier way to "fix" this:

1. go to i386 and delete nhelper.ex_

2.locate i386\textsetup.sif - edit with notepad - search(F3) for "nhelper" and delete all the rows that contain this, use extra care DO NOT DEL any "nlite"

3.locate i386\nlite.in_ copy it to desktop, expand it, edit in notepad - F3 search for "nhelper" and delete all the rows that contain this, save and close

at this point you have your nlite.ini without nhelper. now use compression bin by jcarle.com and the result nlite.in_ put it back to your i386.

This way windows won't even know about nhelper.exe and therefore will not ask for it - that's the point

this method was tested an it worked each time i customised my unatand installations...

This is such an old problem.

The interesting thing is.....

I've searched the registry and found the following:

(Export of registry entried and I've removed the irrelevant stuff...)

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Windows\ShellNoRoam\MUICache]

"C:\\WINDOWS\\system32\\nhelper.exe"="nLite Helper Tool"

Look, nhelper.exe is called the nLite Helper Tool....

Strange....

I've deleted those registry entries (there are two of them.)

I've restarted more than 5 times.

Firstly, the welcome screen is dsiplayed a LOT longer, so boot-up takes longer and the error still comes up.
