The Saint Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 Once the custom Windows is installed, in the root dir there are the folders (applications, drivers, install) that I created previously. Is it safe to remove them.?THanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 Yes, you can also use remove commands at the end of your last batch file to automate this. But for some reason Drivers refuses to be removed, until next reboot that is. Nothing big anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Saint Posted October 7, 2003 Author Share Posted October 7, 2003 hmmm...All the screensavers did not get removed for some reason.1. I copied and pasted the code in the main_batch cmd but they are still there.2. and my uxtheme.dll was not pacthed either.3. I have a SVCPACK.DL_, svcpack.inf and svcpack.IN_ in the i386 dir.IN the guide it is not mentioned anywhere the DL_ one. Do I have to remove it?

Aaron Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 svcpack.inf can be deleted if SVCPACK.IN_ is the compressed version of your svcpac.inf.SVCPACK.DL_ should be left alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

un4given1 Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 instead of using a delete command, use the RD (remove directory) commandRD /Q /S c:\applicationsRD /Q /S c:\driversRD /Q /S c:\installI guarantee that this will work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rstryker Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 I guarantee that this will workthe only guarantee i give is that "i guarantee if it works for you it wont work for at least one other person." LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gosh Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 When your cd is done installing, i recommend adding a registry key to the RunOnce registry key. Have runonce run a batch file after you restart that deletes all your old folders.-gosh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DMX Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 if you'd check drivers folder properties you would notice it gets the hidden and system file attributes(probably by setup program) so what i did was to add the following command before using the rd commandATTRIB -S -H -R "%systemroot%\drivers" /S /DRD "%systemroot%\drivers\" /S /Qno double delete no batch files in runonce no other "auxiliaries" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
un4given1 Posted October 8, 2003 Share Posted October 8, 2003 RD will delete hidden files as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
