I don't wan't 50 or more entries in the add/remove programs list in the control panel.... (unless I actually want to see them) What I'm after is what MrDMX did in his ported vista games addon......

First of all a BIG thanks to this forum for the great information provided on helping me to learn the inf creation process. A special thanks to Ricktendo64 for his gift of sharing that knowledge. I am having one problem I have not been able to find a solution for - the problem of creating a shortcut for a file name or folder that contains spaces. I realize that there are 2 obvious workarounds (using the 8.3 file name or renaming the file), however neither of those options will work for me in all cases. For one, many people are turning off 8.3 file name creation (it's one of the recommended tweaks for SSD drives) and renaming the file often leads to other problems…

OK, I am working on a addon that has around 542 files and around 54 folders, it has a lot of the same file name. So I would like to be able to go in a folder and add the folder name ever file with the folder name in front of it. ex. inside a (testing 1 folder), there is a number of files. testing.txt testing.jpg testing.url I am wanting to add a "testing 1" in front of every file. testing 1testing.txt testing 1testing.jpg testing 1testing.url I don't think it's possible but, just a thought and it never hurts to try. LOL . Thanks

Hello ! I finally found how to solve my problem (read MY REQUEST) This is commands, AND PARAMETER, if you want to jump/reach WinXP User Account Pictures window How do i proceed? I've used excellent soft PE Explorer (v1.99 R6) in Disassembler Mode with %windir%\explorer.exe(see snapshot below). Great, isn't it ? :thumbsup_anim: :thumbsup_anim: :thumbsup_anim:

Someone can tell me where to find a complete list of DIRIDS for inf. I've been searching but find nothing just a little, but nothing complete

OK, I did a check with FGBCS on the .inf and had no error or warnings. I also did a check on the .7z and nothing. When I do a manual install I get the above message. Any ideals on what maybe happening? I integrated the .7z to a XPCD to test that also, but that is still installing, will post if that works or not. THANKS OK, It will not install through a XPCD also.

I have created a few addons and incorporate them into a clean build of WinXP SP3. They are designed to be incorporated by Sysoc during that process step. I have inserted ADDREG sections into some of them that create entries in the following registry location HKCU,"Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run" with the hope that these programs would run each time at startup. I have discovered that some of the ADDREG sections make it into the Administrator account while others seem only to make it under Default User account. I thought during windows setup, that the active user account was the administrators account and therefore the current user should be the administr…

Once again I'm stuck on an inf problem. Does anyone know of a way to append to the %PATH% using an INF installer? I know that the path is stored in the registry at: HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment","Path" And I know it would be easy to replace the path. The question is can I append to the existing path in the registry? And, then, to really complicate matters... Would there be a way to uninstall the appended path portion ONLY on an uninstall? I'm probably asking for too much, now. :albert:

When making a addon, do you need to add the prefetch files (C:Windows\Prefetch)? Thank you

Hi Am trying to add ONLY a context menu. For example i want to have this as the name "tools" eg Tools>addon maker, script editor, and so on Basically all my tools and utilities are located in system32/tools directory, and i want to access them via context menu (right click>tools) and also have 2 or 3 menu's inside the "tools" context menu, and have them pointed to my exe files which are located in system32/tools directory. How do i add this context menu(s) via inf? A basic inf template for this will do, as i do have a bit experience with inf files. Thank you

Ok.... I'm working on a addon for O&O SafeErase 3.... The addon works perfectly..... I have one problem.... I create the shortcut just like the default installer does.... Start/All Programs/O&O Software/O&O SafeErase.... I can delete it also with no problem..... The problem comes in if you have more that 1 O&O software installed... Reason being that O&O creates shortcuts to all their software in: Start/All Programs/O&O Software/ So what you could have is shortcuts like this: Start/All Programs/O&O Software/O&O SafeErase Start/All Programs/O&O Software/O&O Defrag Start/All Programs/O&O Software/O&O etc........ So when my ad…
