Sorry for my bad english...

Yeah, this issue has been around for some time, i don't know what causes it. It seems to get reset after Windows installation.

[Kelsenellenelvian]

HKEY_CURRENT_USER <--- HKCU is most likely the issue as that key doesnt get full populated untill after first logon...

[Legolash2o]

The HKEY_CURRENT_USER get gets converted to HKEY_USERS\.Default

Thank you... I'll try to add reg key through WPI...

Any solution...?

in v103 i've updated my code to unregister a dll in the runonce key. Haven't tested if it works yet though...


"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\RunOnce", "Remove LangBar", "Regsvr32.exe /s /u msutb.dll", RegistryValueKind.String

Hello again... I have another problem, I created a DisableLangBar.cmd with the following code
REG ADD "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\CTF\LangBar" /v ShowStatus /t REG_DWORD /d 3 /f
does not get it to work, if I run from the console command works, but if I run the DisableLangBar.cmd not... Any ideas...?
Regards... ;-)

[bphlpt]

When do you try to run the DisableLangBar.cmd that it does not work? At install, on a live system, anytime, or ...?

Cheers and Regards

Can I run code from Autounattend.xml...?

<SynchronousCommand wcm:action="add">
	<CommandLine>cmd /q /c REG ADD "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\CTF\LangBar" /v ShowStatus /t REG_DWORD /d 3 /f</CommandLine>
	<Description>Disable LangBar</Description>

The reason I asked is that this will NOT work during the OS install if it is run too early, since "Current User" - (HKCU) - will not exist at that point as Kel pointed out. So it will not work in Autounattend.xml for the same reason. But I might have misunderstood you. It should work if you run the DisableLangBar.cmd AFTER first log on, using WPI for example. Of course you'll have to run this for each user you want it to apply to.

Cheers and Regards

Make it run at HKCU\\Software\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce, worth a try.

Ok, thank you...

Ok, I promise you try it... how I run
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\RunOnce", "Remove LangBar", "Regsvr32.exe /s /u msutb.dll", RegistryValueKind.String...?
From Auntounattend.xml, *.cmd, $OEM$ folder...???
Thank you again... ;-)

[alfreire]

Is this ok...?

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

Since you say this DisableLangBar.cmd runs correctly as you show it when run from the command line, then leave it exactly like it is and run it with WPI. HKCU exists when WPI runs so it should work just fine. But you can try any other method you like. If you find one that works for you, then please post it so others will know a method you have verified that works.

Cheers and Regards
