Hi, thanks for that info! I've noticed that with other unattended setups, the reason "Easy Install" is skipped is because Vmware Workstation can't recognize the operating system itself. So I guess I'm on a quest to find out how to other unattended setups trick Workstation that way: Thanks for any help if available!

Entendido, pero otros unattended setups, como los de TinyXP, veo en ellos que tambien usan WINNT.SIF, y aun asi, "Easy Install" los deja instalarce fully unattended. Realmente creo que quiza sea alguna opcion en la seccion de Tweaks de la configuracion de nLite para conservar el Addon editado y tener otro default tema en workstation, porque en una de las pruebas, si logre que el Addon cambie de tema y ponga otro Default. Use la configuracion adjunta a este reply, pero no se si realmente el causante estee ahi. Acerca de la licencia por volumen (vlk), en el pasado, simplemente dejaba en blanco la seccion de licencia en vmware, y lo instalaba unattended, pero ya no, y no se el porque (perdon por irme offtopic aqui). Gracias por su ayuda, y si alguien sabe algo al respecto, me seria de gran ayuda. Last Session (2012.05.13-19.48.39).ini

Hello, I'm sorry if this is the wrong section to ask, but basically: VMware Workstation is not recognizing volume license key during unattended setup, but VirtualBox does. I create the unattended ISO with nLite successfully, and use an original volume license key. Make it fully unattended (skip oobe, and not do it, choose variables in options like removing WGA and not, etc...) on an original untouched Retail ISO by Microsoft. The ISO is fully unattended if I use VirtualBox, or if I burn it to a CD/DVD, or USB drive, but when I use the latest version of VMware Workstation, the setup always asks for a license key before T13. I found a way to avoid it choosing "Install later" to skip having to put in the license on the Vmware Workstation setuo (which I usually leave blank, and was still unattended in older versions). Maybe it has something to do with the "Easy Install" feature in VMware Workstation, but I'm not sure. My WINNT.SIF is correct and has said volume license key there (also used other VLK's that I found on the net). Any suggestions? I just want VMware to recognize an unattended setup.

Hola, e editado el Addon para usar otros de los temas como default con exito usando VirtualBox, y un CD de instalacion, pero al usar VMWare Workstation, este siempre cambia el tema, y lo coloca como el original siempre, no importa en que orden use el Addon o si lo use solamente. Mi WINNT.SIF muestra correctamente el tema que eligo, y nLite siempre lo hace Fully Unattended. Creo que tiene algo que ver quiza con la herramienta de "Easy Install" de Workstation, ya que aunque haga cualquier ISO unnatended usando una licencia por volumen original, de todas formas siempre la pide durante Setup, a menos que evite "Easy Install" elijiendo la opcion de "Instalar mas tarde".

Gracias, entendido.

Hoy, Mayo 14, me aparece esto sobre una copia Retail limpia de XP sin alteraciones, y con solo el paquete agregado. Usualmente no sucede esto, y reporta cero actualizaciones pendientes (se uso VMware Workstation, y el MD5 Checksum fue correcto):

If I remove all of the "lang-xxxx.dll's" except for this one "Spanish (Traditional)1034 (&H40A)", would it force to install Ccleaner in Spanish whatever the locale ID is on the machine being installed without any errors? Will try this out soon

Pregunta tonta: Se puede editar el Addon de Windows Live Messenger v2009 (Build 14.0.8117.416), para que cree un atajo en QuickLaunch del Taskbar?

I was really having a blonde moment with this, but it turned out to be easier than I thought . The parameter I was looking for to install CDBurnerXP silently, with no icon, and with a QuickLaunch shortcut was: The "quicklaunchicon" reference to do a QuickLaunch shortcut was hidden and found under a .CFG file that I can create with even more customizations I can save on that file. It was even shown in this documentation right on my face, LOL: http://cdburnerxp.se/help/kb/13 So I can use those switches manually to create my Addon, BUT, now I want to test if I can use that .CFG file along with the Installer to create an easier unattended installer with more options selected to my likings, like this: In case I feel lazy about using those switches manually . Also, since you mentioned "Inno", and I had no idea what that was, I learned about it by Googling, and found more documentation on a few more switches (Cmenu is awesome though): http://www.jrsoftware.org/ishelp/index.php?topic=setupcmdline Anyways, creating an Addon this way is easier than I thought, just watch the videos carefully, and do some research according to the software you want, and the type of -Installer- that software uses. Thank you for all this info

Wow, that was fast! Thank you! I created my first Addon successfully I would like to know a little more about the /MERGETASKS=desktopicon / Switch. I can see that by adding an exclamation mark before "desktopicon" I can avoid having a shortcut created on the desktop, but, I also want to add the ability to create a QuickLaunch shortcut on the Taskbar Is there any documentation with more details about that switch? (Already saw Cmenu switches, and documentation on it's website, but I couldn't figure that switch out ) http://cdburnerxp.se/help/kb/13

Hello, thanks your for your hard work! Please someone re-upload the "SilentSwitchMaker.zip" file , it would last longer on Dropbox I believe, or even Rapidshare (non-ilegal files there have been on for years, so long as no-one reports them).

Gracias por actualizarlo.

Links are down, please re-upload? Thank you!

Muchas gracias por tu trabajo Rick. En respuestas anteriores, diste un enlace a una guia para poder crear paquetes como este personalmente. No puedo encontrar esa respuesta despues de haber ido por todas las paginas. Podrias guiarme a esa guia o informacion relevante?
