Hi, I has been using WPIW for quite a while. Moving from XP to Seven, I bump into a syntax problem I suppose. I used a cmds[pn] statement as follow cmds[pn]=[' "%wpipath%\\PathToExe\\MainExe.exe" /s /v/qn','{CMD} IF EXIST "%wpipath%\\PathToExe\\ExeFile.exe" start "Title" /WAIT "%wpipath%\\PathToExe\\ExeFile.exe" /s /v/qn ']; cond[pn]=['FileExists("%wpipath%\\PathToExe\\MainExe.exe")']; I always get and error cmd2 *** Fail *** (returned code 999): IF EXIST "D:\WPI\PathToExe\ExeFile.exe" start "Title" /WAIT "D:\WPI\PathToExe\ExeFile.exe" /s /v/qn What is really weird, it is working under XP (tested with version 8.5) but not with version 8.6.3 Can anyo…

Hello! I learned how to use WPI with swtiches, and custom make unnattended XP's with silent addons, and DPsbase, and all that good stuff to create a working ISO to use with VMware Workstation or CD/DVD, however things go south when trying to boot off a USB drive. I can only create an unnattended XP through WinSetupFromUSB (did a lot of research), and install them succesfully, but when I add the WPI folder, I can't get it to work. This is my regular working setup unnattended, and with WPI, working fine: When WinSetupFromUSB finishes porting my XP Setup into my USB drive, the files look like this: WinsetupFromUSB somehow erased my WPI folder but kept the "$OEM…

As was previously posted I changed my decision on licensing. WPI will remain freeware (Except for business usages) I am starting a fundraiser for PC repair and domain costs. PLEASE give as much as you can! P.S. My birthday is Dec 8th. P.P.S. If you send through paypal as a gift to kelsenellenelvian@gmail.com (My paypal address) neither of us will incur any charges.

Current Users! The 5 "core" WPI files need to be moved to the new dir. WPI will no longer recognize your files in the wpiscripts dir. To easily do this just run the cmd file "Upgrade", In your old WPI folder, then copy the created UserFiles folder to the new WPI folder. Steps to update your WPI folder: Download and extract the new WPI archive to a different location. Run the upgrade.cmd file in the old WPI folder. Copy the newly created UserFiles folder from old to new. Copy your Audio folder from old to new. Copy your Install folder from old to new. Copy Themes folder from old to new. Copy all of your Logos\Graphics files the new location. Rename or move your old folder…

Hi all! I'm not sure I've fully understood this function... What name should I specify for the software to be checked? Should it be IDENTICAL to the one appears in the program list (Add/Remove Programs; Programs and Features)? Is it possible not to check for a specific software version/build/number but for any of its kind? BTW, is there any place to get more information about WPI functions except for the built-in manual?? Thanks, Keynan.

Windows Post-Install Wizard (WPI for short) is a hypertext application designed for giving users choice. While Windows XP offers many ways of customizing the setup process out of the box, its major drawback is the lack of being able to select which applications an end user may install. In the past, end users and administrators needed to either download the files manually, or create overly complex scripts that could only be used once. WPI allows you to create one image, which can then be custom configured, and optionally, automated, so that end users can install any applications. WPI is a simple to use automation program for the choice and installation of multiple programs…
