  1. currently there is just one forum for miscellaneous wintoolkit issues/questions, and everything gets lumped into there.  http://www.wincert.net/forum/forum/179-win-toolkit/

     

    it makes it hard to 'navigate' amongst all of it.

     

    since work on wintoolkit has picked up again, there have been new builds and consequently new bugs.  so most of the topics on the first page in there are existing issues, bug reports, and solved bugs.  but all the question topics get pushed way down as a result. 

     

    so my suggestion is either a new 'bug' forum,  or a 'general help Q/A' type forum

     

  2. that windows updates downloader looks familiar.  i think i was using that program with this http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/139877-post-sp1-updates-for-windows-7-updated-08102013/

    although it might be the same .ulz file that you can get from the 'wud' website. not really sure what if any difference there is.

    and looks like the msfn forum has changed since the last time i've been there :P

  3. thanks for the links.  last time i was working with ie9 (thats how long its been for me lol) i was using links from but the site must have changed a bit since then b/c i could no longer find anything

     

    edit:  something must have happened since i've been away b/c i can't seem to post anything with links to hotfix2.cesidian.info.  for example the forum seems to automatically remove the link after i submit the post.  are these links blacklisted now for some reason?  it probably does not matter too much since the old links i used to use are not even working anymore anyway :P

  4. hi, i haven't been following this forum for a few months now so i'm not sure if this has been discussed already.  but today i saw that microsoft released ie11 for windows 7.  since i am admittedly quite rusty with the procedure etc. i was wondering if anyone could point me towards where i can find the ie11 files to integrate with win toolkit.  thanks

  6. i don't have a solution, but i have noticed something kind of annoying that is similar.  i found if i worked with a build, stopped midway, exited wintoolkit and came back later to work on it, the .iso would double in size. when i'm finished, i'll get an .iso thats 7+gb :dizzy:

     however, if i start and work on it and not close the program (basically complete everything in one sitting) then my .iso size would be more normal 3-ish gb.  its kind of annoying that theres no 'check' to see whats been done, or to prevent it from doing whatever it does that makes the .iso balloon to twice its normal size.

  7. i'm not sure. but it was an oem background image. not sure how i can find out that information

     

    edit: i ran a test... and i can't tell if it got further compressed or the resolution altered in any way... so i guess there is a built in check (maybe?) which is what i was hoping for

  8. under advanced -> tweaks -> start-up & shutdown -> change logon background

     it says it will automatically convert the picture to all resolutions and compress them..

     

    my question is, what if the file is already 249k?  i believe thats the max file size allowed for background images.  will wintoolkit still try to compress it?

  9.  (2) As to removing language files and other features of the OS that you wish to remove, Win Toolkit doesn't really remove most of them from the source, it just removes them from the install sequence if you will.  So your installed OS footprint is smaller, but the install source not so much.  At least that is my understanding.  Lego has been talking about implementing removal mechanisms similar to the way that vLite did it which should show a bigger reduction in install source size, but that has not been put in place yet.

     

    Cheers and Regards

     

    i actually didn't know about that. i had assumed incorrectly removing actually removed the files.  thanks for the info
