Romulo Carlos Reis Alves Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 Good mornig! I'm having a problem when I try to use Win Toolkit with RT7 Lite. I get a "corrupt file" error message at the end of instalation. What I'm doing (all tests are made in VirtualBox): Export the WIM image I want (Professional, in this case) from DVD with WTK, and creat a ISO. I test this ISO on a VM and installation finished without errors. Then, again with WTK, I remove components, make a new ISO and test again. Installation sucessfully. Now, I get the WIM and open it with RT7 Lite. Remove components, make other ISO and test. Now, I get the message saying a file is corrupt, and installation cannot continue. So, I invert the process. Open the original ISO with RT7, select Professional, remove components, create a ISO (all proccess in a "one-step, because RT7 don't export images, it only save the image you select at start). So, I test it on VM. Installation OK. Then I get the WIM generated by RT7 (a lot smaller, BTW), open in WTK, remove some more components, make a new ISO and test. Again, error about file corrupted. What I'm doing wrong?? I don't want a unattended installation or a pre-configured windows. Just a installation without some features I don't use here at work. Thanks in advice!

Romulo Carlos Reis Alves Posted June 27, 2014 Author Share Posted June 27, 2014 Thanks... there another way to do this? I tried some DISM commands, but I don't find a way to remove some features, it don't appears with the command /get-features! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crashfly Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 RT7 is a much older program that removes items from Windows 7 install image in a "non-standard" way. Therefore any resulting image will likely have some kind of issues due to the "non-standardness" of the removal process. If you can stand to not remove anything from the install image, and instead create an automated install that can *not* install those components you do not want, then that would be the safer way to create an install image.

Romulo Carlos Reis Alves Posted June 29, 2014 Author Share Posted June 29, 2014 Thanks, crashfly. I realized this. The problem with your suggestion is the size of final ISO. After integrating Windows updates and MS-Office with updates, I get an ISO about 10Gb. Don`t fit in a single DVD (my goal is a single DVD). R7L reduces the size of the WIM in anyway I don`t know how (just to know, after removing features with R7L, the inital WIM is about 1Gb, against 2Gb with WTK). Anyway, I`m leaving R7L. But... If WTK can`t reduce the size of final WIM, how I can do this? And how to remove features manually (I mean, with DISM)? Just to explain how I`m doing the DVD with WTK:1. Export Win7 Professional;2. Remove components;3. Install it on VM;4. After install, when it asks for user and computer name, I press SHIFT+F3;5. Install and setup everything I want (only MS-Office and updates);6. Capture the image with imagex. Thanks in advice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bphlpt Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 This is a RT7Lite issue. Please ask your question in their forum. Cheers and Regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bphlpt Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 LOL I know. Do you think that might be a subtle hint to use a different tool? Cheers and Regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naifle Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Use the old version of the WTK.I'm using version 1.4.0.44. I have no problem with RT7Lite Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legolash2o Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 There's also NTLite by Nuhi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bphlpt Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 I don't want to encourage the use of an outdated tool such as RT7Lite in any way whatsoever, but I am curious what changed in Win Toolkit if indeed it is true that version 1.4.0.44 was able to work with RT7Lite with no errors while working with the current version has issues.
