The source code for WinToolkit v2 can be found below: WinToolkit v2: https://github.com/Legolash2o/WinToolkit_v2 The topic for WTK v1 source code can be found here.

This thread I post @BetaArchive with thought for some changes in Toolkit. Will be very usefull if the following it is possible, to be added in Toolkit: When you edit some WIM file WinToolkit using DISM for mount-unmount Modified date is not changed, and I've find out that if after mounting Wintoolkit capture the mounted folder and unmount with discarding changes from the first one, and put new captured install.wim to overwrite the old one, in Select Edition window date in "Modified date" will be changed. This will require additional time for whole prosedure, but it's good for keeping track, from what was the last time one edition was updated/edited. Select edition windo…

In case you didn't know, I've been drafting up my proposal to finally work on a new Wintoolkit v2 as my final year project at university. It will be EPIC. I've received feedback and made changes to my proposal, just awaiting for further feedback. Once that is done, I will submit it I will keep you guys up-do-date in this thread as soon as I hear anything. Basically it will be starting WinToolkit from scratch. Here are a few things you should expect. · Make more use of mutli-tasking All-In-One Integrator will integrate wallpapers, gadgets and others at the same time as other tasks, saving even more time. Run other tools whilst integration is in progress. Conv…

As part of my final year project (if approved). I will be focusing a lot on threading. Currently Win Tookit uses background workers with apparently are bad for performance. I've been experimenting and here are some results compare the current method used by Win Toolkit and a new method. Parallel will also use more CPU cores and I will let you choose in Options how many you want to use. By default it would be ProcressorCount - 1, so if you have a quad core with hyperthreading (8), it will use 7 by default. Test 1: The test was to get the MD5 values for 1300+ MSU files. -------------------------------------------- Not Updating GUI:- Current: 19270ms (19 seconds) New: …

Firstly, if you have any suggestions about the improvements below or questions, let me know WIM ManagerThis is currently in progress. It now reads WIM files and currently mounted directories. Error Handling and LogsToday I have been working exception handling, this will allow finally catching any errors you experience within WTK 2.x. At the minute, any error will just crash the entire application. Another change is that the log file will now be in XML format to allow easier reading. <Error Type="Normal" Date="22 May 2015 19:23" WTK="2.0.5620.34850" DLL="2.0.5620.34850" Lang="en-US" Name="WIN-4588D1S56VL"><!-- Test Error -->An error has occured on purpo…

Hello, FYI: right now both links on the page http://testing.wintoolkit.co.uk/v2.x/index.php lead to a 404 error message. Is there any alternative download site? Regards, Oshi

Which would you guys prefer? Release every Saturday with multiple new features/enhancements but more testing done by me.OR A new release after each individual new addition but with less testing from me. Possibly multiple a day or sometimes every other day depending on how big a particular feature is.

Does anybody have any experience with WIMGAPI.dll? I will be using that instead of Imagex

Hi Lego, does not crash, but doesn't recognize foreign languages. Edit: Seems not to install anything... Tested on a VM Win7, x64, HP, same result for updates. Edit: BTW: It seems to need DismAPI.dll, I had to install WAIK 8.1! Without it gives an error and hangs.

For those who are interested in what my desk looks like. This is my 'work' desk where I do all my programming although SVN does allow easy programming on my laptop when in bed Although you can't properly see it. That's the AIO Integrator being worked on. Hardware You can only see half of it, there's another two computers None of them are designed for games as I don't really play them.

Calling AIO-Integrator, WIM-Manager, WIM-Reg-Editor, Driver- & Update Installer ---> error Thiersee Error has gone, I forgot an old DLL in the folder where I start WTK v2.

Hi Lego, 1) after mounting an image the WIM-Manager get empty, no chance to unmount (nothing to select)! Only possibility: start WTK 1.5.3.X and unmount the image. 2) Can't start if no folder "Temp" or "Mount" present on the drive and no chanche to set under "Options" Thiersee

Today I have been working on what happens during an error. If anyone has any ideas or general feedback, let me know UPDATE 20/07/2015: Further improvements have been made to the error handling system, which are the following: ScreenshotsScreenshots of the each window are automatically taken and shown in the 'More Information' section. Save XMLYou can now save the xml generated by an exception. <Error Type="Highest" Date="20 June 2015 13:11" WTK="2.0.5649.23735" DLL="2.0.5648.34733" Lang="en-US" Name="WIN-V5HL24AUG8N"><!-- Unhandled Exception -->Test<!--System.Exception: Test at WinToolkitv2.FrmMain.BtnTestBrowser_OnClick(Object sender, Routed…

With the error dialog done (apart from uploading). Today I'm taking the time to update the icons and GUI of existing screens, and most likely bug fixes too. Not all icons are final but any feedback which you can provide will be helpful.

Hi Liam, in the new release same errors like this thread (manager empty after mount) and this thread (WAIK 8.1 necessary, otherwise error!); WTK does not check if it's installed! Installed in a VM, x64 italian, it takes the OS language if more are installed in "lang", but under "About" is en-US as language displayed, even if menus and texts are in italian. New icons look good! Thiersee

I've decided to experiment with having some sort of development cycle. This will give me an aim to do for the day and let you know what to expect at each nightly build. Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. New FeaturesThe focus of these releases will be to add as many features as possible for you guys to test. Wednesday and Saturday EnhancementsThese releases will take feedback and put them into practice. This includes bug fixes and improving upon existing features, or just improving some code. Sunday TranslationThe en-US template will be updated so any new features will be translatable. Note: I'm tempted to move translations to the 'Enhancement' days. Automa…

Today I've been experimenting with cleaning up WinSXS. As you may know every month I create new ISOs, however I've noticed the size for an x64 image goes to about 17.5GB with all 500+ updates installed. I've successfully managed to cleanup WinSXS to reduce the install back to 11GB! The best news is that it boots and installed successfully without a single error Does anyone have any ideas of what I can try yet to reduce an image size? Any software you can suggest I install to see if it works? Any other test? At the minute it's just an extra exe which I point to the a mount path and it just automatically does its things. EDIT: Windows update did prompt 3 tiny update…

Introduction So as you may or may not be aware. Win Toolkit v2.0 has been accepted to be my final year project. That means a year and a half of researching, re-designing, re-coding and re-testing). It will require me to start the project from scratch taking in lots of researching, coding practices and everything I've learnt in the first four years into one beautiful final product. At the moment the current Win Toolkit code is a big mess. It has a mixture of old rubbish code, sorta ok code and new code. Unfortunately that means adding your requests is really hard because as you know, it leads to quite a few bugs from just forcing it in there. Some of the big tools such a…

I'm considering the idea of having a FREE version and a PRO version of WinToolkit v2.x. It's not set in stone. So here are some questions: What do you think should be available to the PRO version but not the FREE version? Obviously driver + update integration will be free. How much would you be willing to pay for the PRO version?Any other input? I will add that if i did choose the pro / free options. I would have a bog standard installer with no offers and remove the ads (on links) for the pro users.

Hey, so I've spent the last couple of days finally updating the website. Can anyone please provide feedback? For those user who have donated, send me an email and I shall send you a test username and password to check out the exclusive stuff but mostly to make sure they work

Hey Liam, A question, i give a short test with NTLite and was surprised how amazing it works. NTLite does remove components full and my first (working!) iso was just 1,5 GB sized. How will handle WTK2.x it? Will it also remove full or just deactivate? Would be awesome it will work the same way. Greez

So I've finally had time to work with the GUI. Hear is a sample Feedback please! EDIT: I know that the attachments can't be viewed. I've messaged NIM

When I try to click on some button in win toolkit v.2x prototype, such as the all in one integrator is doesn't load the function it should.

Does anybody have any feedback on the latest v2.0.0.x test? What do you think of it? Currently I'm working on it from 8AM-4PM and then again at 8-9PM to 12AM :type: :omg: EDIT: If you have any feedback about the tooltips or think I should add xyz to a description, please let me know in here. I know Thiersee has some
