foobuzz Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 I agree with dotfusion:i'm not so sure about 1.5.0.1.Concerning his test with "300+ Updates (w/ Recommended Additions from KUC Windows 7 x64)", I did one yesterday (McRip Updates, Windows7 x64).Took me quite a while (7½ hours in total).382 (!) Updates were downloaded and—so it seemed—integrated.The VM installation, however, asks me to apply > 80 recommended updates.I checked the numbers of 2 or 3; they were already downloaded and allegedly integrated by WT 1.5.0.1...Additionally, I integrated 4 Language Packs:3 of them were selectable within the VM installation later on, 1 is missing.Addons: 1 from Reaper. It is missing in the uninstalling list, I already dropped a note to the author.66 Tweaks: Some aren't applied yet. Favourites::Hide for example.I also had to configure the tweak "Change The Download Directory" separately (did work afterwards).Gadgets: noneThemes: noneUsed WT version: WinToolkit150-1_Test36.7zConfig file and stuff may be provided if needed.

Thiersee Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 ....Addons: 1 from Reaper. It is missing in the uninstalling list, I already dropped a note to the author.....What for one?Some Reaper's addon (for example Speccy, Core-Temp, CPU-Z) are not integrated as program, they are in the control panel and can be deinstalled under "Installed Updates" (Win7).MfG, Thiersee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foobuzz Posted November 3, 2012 Author Share Posted November 3, 2012 What for one?That one. Btw, it almost worked (kind of) in Reaper's earlier release (if I'm correct in the x86 version).But it's the Updates that bother me most... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foobuzz Posted November 3, 2012 Author Share Posted November 3, 2012 Another thing to mention (might be a bug, I don't know):I noticed this several times after installing a (WT) customized Windows 7 setup.Using WT I disabled (but cannot remove, I guess) a few components#ComponentsAppFrabicCommon Modem DriversDelete 'Support' folderDelete 'Upgrade' folderDVD MakerHyper-V VMBUS DriverIIS Addons 1IIS Addons 2Inbox GamesInternet GamesInternet Information ServicesMicrosoft AgentMicrosoft XPS Document WriterMicrosoft-Hyper-V-GuestMusic and Video Examples (Ringtones)OEM Help CustomizationParental ControlsPremium Inbox GamesSound ThemesTablet PC ComponentsTelnet ClientTelnet ServerTFTP ClientTV Tuner DriversXPS ViewerLater on, when trying to configure Windows features, e.g. unticking Windows Fax and Scan and ticking the Simple TCPIP services (both haven't been processed by WT), errors occur ("not possible"). It does not matter which feature I enable/disable, it just won't work.Is this some sort of (Microsoft) "bug" or rather "by design"? :confused02: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yogurt Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 (edited) @foobuzzI'll be running my own test as mentioned in Lego's poll. I'm curious to see if I get similar results to yours. I don't intend to remove components, Their are much better ways to turn off unwanted components than removing them from the media. For me they don't occupy that much space. I also plan on testing with Real Hardware as oppose to emulated hardware in a VM.BTW I have never had any problems with Reapers Addons, Reaper does good work. Perhaps you could share your findings with the addon creator in question. Edited November 5, 2012 by dotfusion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foobuzz Posted November 5, 2012 Author Share Posted November 5, 2012 While trying to narrow down the problem (took me some time, though), I've done another test installation, this time merely an original Windows 7 setup (x64+SP1) with an autounattend.xml and a $oem$ folder (nothing special). Again I used VMware to emulate the installation.My results:The erroneous behaviour which occurs when I try to enable or disable components like Windows Fax and Scan reappears.Not always, though, but some will throw an error.As this time WT was not involved, it might be caused by the emulation environment; that's something I intend to check next (with VirtualBox).I cannot reproduce the behaviour with a "real" system (Windows 7 x64 SP1) here either.@Reaper: I appreciate his add-ons, really. Maybe I can investigate this further later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foobuzz Posted November 8, 2012 Author Share Posted November 8, 2012 (edited) I noticed another glitch in the latest beta.In the Tweaks section I set a custom download folder resulting in a .ini line likeChange The Download Directory::c:\mydownloadsThis line won't be read when settings are imported later, thus this tweak gets lost.The same situation in the Updates + Languages. I put 4 language packs in. Afterwards, I added IE9-win7.cab and IE9-Windows6.1-LanguagePack-x64-deu.cab (probably this is wrong) and saved the settings. Next time after importing that ini, there are still the language packs -- the both IE9 cabs are gone (but they still appear in the .ini).Strange...

Legolash2o Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 Make sure the IE9 cabs still exist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foobuzz Posted November 11, 2012 Author Share Posted November 11, 2012 Liam, I succeeded to modify install.wim with a script to integrate IE9 directly.That way, I don't get errors any more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bphlpt Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 Can you please share your script in case it might be of benefit to someone else?Cheers and Regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yogurt Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 @foobuzzDude, I was finally able to replicate the errors you were getting trying to integrate IE9 using DISM Command Tool. I also tested with your script. Nice Work!. Anyhow, I just wanted to post this to let you know that I know understand your frustration DISM. Thanks for sharing your script and insight.

foobuzz Posted November 14, 2012 Author Share Posted November 14, 2012 Glad you like it.It's somewhat odd though, that ie9 integration is (merely) working this way ... :g:If anybody knows which files/dism calls are necessary to integrate IE10 (Preview + localization) into the W7 iso, please let me know.On msfn.org some guys discuss possible dependencies (KB2670838 KB2639308 KB2533623 KB2731771 KB2729094) to get it done.Looking forward to an easier, headache-free way that's scriptable.
