cant install apps during setup


Recommended Posts


but why it wont work in audit path?

Well, can't tell for sure. But AFAIK system envrionment variables a loaded to the system environment only once - when the session starts. So if you let run the command in audit pass, than the session has already be started. SETX will set the AppzRoot variable to the registry than, but it will be present in during session after next logon.

This is the reason, why I put it to specialize pass. The system will reboot, before logon to audit pass, so the session is started again and AppzRoot variable is present.

Well, I don't know for sure if a complete reboot is necessary and you don't have to set one. Please don't missunderstand.

But system will logon to audit passes. That means from my point of view, that a new session is started and system environment is reloaded. Cause first it will run auditSystem pass and second auditUser when booting to audit mode.

But I don't know everything. So might be wrong.

Hello Amit!

You need to set a Description in WSIM for all these synchronous commands, than you will see the Description only instead of full path. If you don't use the description, it seems to be that setup creates one by path info.

Hello Yurek!

Change this here inside Autounattend.xml,

<Path>cmd /c ";FOR %i IN (C D E F G H I J K L N M O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z) DO IF EXIST %i:\AppzRoot.txt SETX AppzRoot %i: -m";</Path>

to:

<Path>cmd /c "FOR %i IN (C D E F G H I J K L N M O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z) DO IF EXIST %i:\AppzRoot.txt SETX AppzRoot %i: -m"</Path>

The ";" supposed not to be there. Don't know for the moment where it's comming from, but just remove it manually from your Autounattend.xml.

Regards,

Martin
