Miscellaneous feedback

[x79]

I encountered some bug where install.wim failed to rebuild twice. I first selected an install.wim without a sources folder (f:\_working\8_Pro\install.wim). Next I used the component removal. I then used the AutoUnattended creator, finished, and went back to the main menu. Next I used the All-In-One Integrator. I got the message that some things would be disabled but it looked like everything was available. I saved the profile when I hit start. It failed to rebuild the wim file and went back to main menu. I thought maybe it was because I tried to remove the same components twice so I opened a fresh install.wim and had the same error. I closed WTK, reopened, opened the AIO Integrator, loaded the saved profile and then everything went smoothly. I have attached the error log.
 
Here are some other non-critical things that didn't seem to work as I expected:

• Start menu tweaks don't apply to windows 8.
• Disable Admin shares tweak no longer works on Windows 8. Another way to accomplish this is to create a scheduled task to delete the shares at boot, though I don't know a way to automatically detect what other drives exist.
• The component removal seems to be a predefined list as opposed to detecting the packages in the wim. After I removed components using the component removal tool, the same packages still showed as installed when I went to the AIO Integrator.
• In the services tab, the Black Viper buttons seemed to grab windows 7 settings even though there are pages for Windows 8 settings.

Here are some things I would like to see implemented:

• Disable/Delete scheduled tasks
• Add/remove cursors and cursor schemes.
• Remove original Wallpapers.
• Manage Windows 8 lock screen images.
• Enable/Rename Administrator account. (Maybe this can be done with AutoUnattended?)
• Add Classic Shell to the Downloads section. (Or a link to a list of start menu replacements)
• Add a tweak to change "Display delete confirmation dialog".

@x79,

 

Please try again to post your error log.  If necessary, post the log to some other file sharing service, dropbox, mediafire, or whatever, and post the link to the file.

 

Cheers and Regards

Sorry about that. Originally I browsed to the file but didn't hit the attach button :-/

As an update, my admin shares are currently disabled. I'm not sure what changed since I installed and updated/rebooted several times but I'm confident they were present on first boot. I used Server 2012 as a desktop for months and I could not seem to get them disabled but on 8 Pro, everything appears to be working correctly now.
