Win Toolkit is a lightweight and easy to use application that was created in order to help you customize your Windows installation!

With this tool you can integrate Addons, Drivers, Gadgets, Language packs, Modified Files, Theme Packs, Tweaks, Silent Installers, Updates. You can also remove features such as Windows Media Player and customize Windows default services state. Win Toolkit also comes with extra tools which helps you convert files, make ISOs, download the latest updates (thanks to SoLoR and McRip), and completely customize your images to tailor your Windows installation disk to your exact needs.

Win Toolkit is the new name for Windows 7 Toolkit as it also works for Windows 8.

XP and Vista users: You will need to use the DISM Installer and .NET Framework 3.5 in order for Win Toolkit to work on your Operating System!

If you have any problems, bugs or requests then please click here.

P.S. I have noticed that some people post questions and bugs in the 'reviews', i don't really check these so you are better off posting them in the forum.

Tools Manager is the main window for Win Toolkit, there are many tools which you can select.

Main - Basic

This is the greatest tool in Win Toolkit, it's let you integrate, Addons, Remove Components, Drivers, Gadgets, Language Packs, Edit Services, Silent Installs, SFX, Theme Packs, Tweaks, Updates and Wallpapers!

This is what it says on the tin, it creates your ISO file for you to burn! Now supports UEFI!

SoLoR and McRip work very hard and providing ALL the updates released since Service Pack 1 so they should get credit for this, this little tool lets you easily download their updates which Microsoft has released via Windows Updates but more importantly which Microsoft has also released privately and which are not released via Windows Update.

Since i prefer my users to use the latest service packs, i have added a link to a completely free, legal and official download source to the Windows 7 SP1 DVD. Note, you will still need your own serial key.

Main - Intermediate

This tool let's you combine all your WIM files into one DVD, this is most commonly used is to merge x86 and x64 disks.

I'm sure you can guess what this is, this creates an Unattended file which you use to install Windows with, just create and make sure you place the new file in the DVD root.

Prepares your USB stick so you can install Windows from it, obviously your computer needs to support USB booting!

Manage and edit your install.wim, for example you can rename images, delete images, add new ones, create ISO, rebuild, mount, unmount, etc... You can also use this tool to integrate your unattended files.

Main - Advanced

mainadvanced.png

This program let's you remove over 100 components which comes with Windows, some of them are Internet Explorer, IIS, Windows Media Player, Sample Pictures, Tablet PC components, etc... I am also planning on adding some more eventually.

This tool mounts the wim and then it's registry so you can add your tweaks into that image!

Tools

This tool is for advanced users to create .WA files which other users can use the All-In-One Tool to integrate into your image.

Captures new WIM images, so you can use that new image to install Windows.

This will install drivers on your currently installed system using pnputil.exe, it will only install the drivers you need.This tool also lets you uninstall drivers too.

Converts Langauge Packs which are in the exe format to cab so you can integrate them.

Converts MSU to CAB files so you can integrate them or install on your current OS via the CAB Installer.

Converters Office Updates to msp so they can automatically install when you install Office.

Merge *.swm files into a larger *.wim file so it can be edited.

This tool splits your install.wim into multiple files so you can fit them onto multiple CDs.

This will install updates on your currently installed system, probably mostly used by those who use SoLoR or McRip Updates. This tool also lets you uninstall old updates too.

When Windows Update downloads updates, the cab files get left in a folder. This tool retrieves those files so you can integrate them.

  • 1.4.0.8^NEW: W7T will automatically recover mount images

If W7T detects an orphaned image it will try to remound it, another time it will remount it is if you restart your computer with an image mounted it will remount it, but the "remount" stuff only takes second.

  • 1.4.0.8^NEW: Enhanced W7T update checking

Good news for alpha testers, if i release a version newer than what official it will no longer prompt for new version. The only time it will prompt for a new version is when the app version is lower than the version on the server.

  • 1.4.0.8^FIX: AIO will remount boot.wim #1 if image #2 is not found.

Some users have downloaded modified versions of Windows specifically with the 1st WinPE image removed from the boot.wim, if this missing then W7T knows this and changes which image it mounts.

  • 1.4.0.8^FIX: WIM Registry Editor should mount properly

For some reason the default mount path for WIM_RE was to the install.wim file which means it wont mount, this has now been corrected.

  • 1.4.0.8^FIX: Fixed detection if image is already mounted

If you had previous mounted an image and WIM Manager detects it then when checking if an image is mounted, W7T did not take where it was already mounted to into consideration.

----------------------------------------------

  • 1.4.0.9^FIX: Updates did not integrate if IE9 Lang Packs where added.

There was a ‘break’ command if the IE9 Lang Pack integrated properly, this has now been removed.

  • 1.4.0.9^FIX: Online Driver Installer did not work at all.

The option box was disabled, so when you clicked start it didn’t integrate the drivers because no option was select. The box is enabled by default as it should have been and the first item in the list is selected by default too.

  • 1.4.0.9^FIX: Boot.wim did not always mount

For some read I accidently tried to make imagex mount image 0 in the image, which doesn’t exist.

  • 1.4.0.9^FIX: RunOnce did not restart and showed aborting...

Again, just missed out one line of code which has now been added.

----------------------------------------------

  • 1.4.0.10^FIX: Some tweaks did not provide options

Some tweaks did not give you an option, for example change internet explorer title.

  • 1.4.0.10^FIX: Driver Installer displayed message after each install

Each time your added a driver a messagebox would appear.

  • 1.4.0.10^FIX: If W7T is already running then the current W7T will move to foreground

A user reported that the RunOnce installer opened twice sometimes, so now RunOnce will only open once, same with W7T itself.

Not a big release, but thought i'd upload the latest before i go to sleep.

----------------------------------------------

  • 1.4.0.11^FIX: Option to change RunOnceLogo did not work

There is an option in 'Options' to chagne the W7TRunOnce logo to anything you want.

  • 1.4.0.11^FIX: AIO - Could not import/save updates

If you went to 'Updates + Languages' > Presets and tried to load or save the updates tab it did not work.

----------------------------------------------

  • 1.4.0.12^NEW: 'CAB Retriever' has now been upgraded to 'Update Retriever'

The new Update Retriever will scan your WindowsUpdate.log to get the direct links to any msu files.

  • 1.4.0.12^FIX: Update Installer did not integrate updates if LDR Mode was enabled

Updates did not integrate if LDR Mode was enabled, this was due to a typo.

  • 1.4.0.12^FIX: Fix addon integration if file/folder did not exist

Received a few logs with this error so i fixed it.

  • 1.4.0.12^FIX: Made some modifications to MSU > CAB Converter which affects IE9 Lang Packs

Hopefully this will help with users using MSU to CAB Converter and IE9 Lang Packs

  • 1.4.0.12^Sorted out 'Options'

Should be tider

  • 1.4.0.12^More 'Options in AIO Integrator and also more orgranised

Should be tidier, with some options removed and some added.

  • 1.4.0.12^Drivers in boot.wim is shown in integrated tab

When W7T integrates drivers into boot.wim it will show you these.

Sorry i have not been working on Win Toolkit recently, i have 3 essays to complete and then a really difficult exam which i need to revise for, i will resume work on Win Toolkit once my last exam has finished. Sorry for any inconvenience.

P.S. Wincert had to be restored from a backup resulting in show v15 instead of v16.

----------------------------------------------

  • 1.4.0.16^FIX: Some issues with RunOnce

Some users reported RunOnce did not work or at least not silently i.e. updates.

  • 1.4.0.16^FIX: Update Retriever shows duplicate files

Update Retriever will no longer shows the same files twice.

  • 1.4.0.16^FIX: Always show menu bar in IE9 did not work

Self-explanatory.

  • 1.4.0.16^.WA files now get an icon, special thanks to ElmerBeFuddled

*.WA files now get an icon, thanks again ElmerBeFuddled.

----------------------------------------------

  • 1.4.0.17^FIX: Some issues with RunOnce Installers

The RunOnce installer only looked in 'W7T' and 'WinKit' registry keys but now also looks in 'WinToolkit' key.

  • 1.4.0.17^FIX: Progress bar error in AIO

Some users experienced a problem with the progress bar, i've changed some code so hopefully this is now fixed.

  • 1.4.0.17^FIX: Update Retriever did not show Windows Updates

Not really a big issue, think of it as a typo. I've also made it just show MSU files in the Windows Update tab and fixed a few GUI errors.

----------------------------------------------

  • 1.4.0.18^FIX: WinToolkit crashed when closing SoLoR Updates

Some people would try and close the SoLoR Updates while it's unmounting, this sometimes caused an error to appear once back on the Tools Manager screen.

  • 1.4.0.18^FIX: WinToolkit crashed when closing CAB Retriever

Some people would try and close the CAB Retriever while it's unmounting, this sometimes caused an error to appear once back on the Tools Manager screen.

  • 1.4.0.18^FIX: WinToolkit crashed when closing Component Remover

Some people would try and close the Component Remover while it's unmounting, this sometimes caused an error to appear once back on the Tools Manager screen.

  • 1.4.0.18^FIX: WinToolkit did not load all settings on startup

This issue was caused by lack of capital letters, for example if "string.ToUpper().Contains("W7TSetting")" it would not work because it had to say 'W7TSETTING' this was caused by the name change.

  • 1.4.0.18^FIX: Office update KB2553111 did not extract

Office 2003 update, same as above.

  • 1.4.0.18^FIX: Hopefully fixed an error when rebuilding images

An out of range error occured when rebuilding errors, added some extra checks so this doesn't happen again.

  • 1.4.0.18^FIX: Show Preset Manager setting did not save

When you loaded AIO Integrator and unticked 'Show Preset Manager', the setting got ignored and continued to appear on startup.

  • 1.4.0.18^FIX: Vista_API.dll missing error if deleted

Further fixed the issue mentioned above.

  • 1.4.0.18^FIX: Fixed thread already running error in WIM Manager

Added code so that a Win Toolkit had to wait until a background worker had finished before it ran again.

  • 1.4.0.18^FIX: WinToolkit tried to integrate a LP which didn't exist

If a user added an LP to the AIO Updates + Languages list and then deleting the file itself but kept it in the list, it would cause an error. Win Toolkit checks if the file exists directly before working with it.

----------------------------------------------

  • 1.4.0.19^FIX: Fixed RunOnce issues

MSU and MSI files needed to be treated differently, for example MSI files need to be run with "msiexec.exe"

  • 1.4.0.19^FIX: Office 2003 updates did not extract

Office 2003 updates uses a different exe format /switches, Win Toolkit detects this and uses the correct extract switch when dealing with Office 2003 updates.

----------------------------------------------

  • 1.4.0.20^FIX: Hopefully fixed AIO sorting errors

Hopefully fixed the issues relating to items disappearing, tests seemed to confirm that it's fixed. A downside is that you can now only move one item at a time.

  • 1.4.0.20^FIX: Invalid characters can't be used in 'Name' section of Silent Installers

When users used characters such as : / * ? in the 'Name' section when adding Silent Installers, it would cause the file not to be copied correctly, this characters have now been blocked.

  • 1.4.0.20^FIX: Error occures when user closed WIM Registry Editor whilst unmounting

Some people would try and close the WIM Registry Editor while it's unmounting, this sometimes caused an error to appear once back on the Tools Manager screen.

  • 1.4.0.20^FIX: Vista_API.dll missing error if deleted

Win Toolkit will re-extract vista_api.dll if missing before it opens the folderbrowserdialog.

  • 1.4.0.20^FIX: Issue where a normal WIM file can be detected as SWM instead

This error occurs when running Win Toolkit via a network share, Imagex is unable to get the wim data, however i've added a condition where if not data is received then it will treat it like a WIM file no matter what.

----------------------------------------------

Changes explained at the end of the topic, basically Win Toolkit sometimes mounted boot.wim #1 instead of #2.

  • 1.4.0.21^FIX: Tools Manager now remembers which 'Main' sub-tabpage

Win Toolkit now remembers if you had 'Basic', 'Intermediate' or 'Advanced' tab selected.

  • 1.4.0.21^FIX: Fix progress bar for integrating updates in AIO Integrator

The progress bar did not update after each update.

  • 1.4.0.21^FIX: Possibly fixed error when removing 'ei.cfg' file via WIM Manager

Can't remember what the error was, received it in an error log and fixed the possible cause.

----------------------------------------------

This bug has finally been fixed, it only allowed the first item to be detected/installed, your silent installs whether they are exe, msu, msi, etc.. should work perfectly now.

  • 1.4.0.22^FIX: Prevent USB Boot Prep from closing whilst scanning

Some users tried closing the USB Boot Prep tool whilst it was scanning for USB devices, this caused Win Toolkit to crash, Win Toolkit makes you wait for it to finish scanning first before closing the tool.

  • 1.4.0.22^FIX: Removed 'Change DPI Setting' tweak as it caused a BSOD.

As the name suggests, it has been reported to cause BSODs so i decided to remove it.

  • 1.4.0.23^FIX: AIO language pack integration will go green if successful

When integrating language packs, the items showed in red rather than green, this is because it couldn't detect whether it was integrated or not.

----------------------------------------------

Win Toolkit did not always unmount images correctly, it would sometimes leave an empty folder and be displayed as 'Corrupt'. WinToolkit will quickly check if a file exists within the mount folder, if it's empty it will simply delete it and cleanup the image so that it unmounts correctly.

----------------------------------------------

  • 1.4.0.24^TWEAK: Pre-install .Net Framework 2.0/3.0/3.5 [Win8]

Needed if you want to use Silent Installers on Windows 8 and for those people who want it pre-installed.

  • 1.4.0.24^NEW: SoLoR Updates now renamed to 'Update Catalog'

Renamed because it now also contains McRip Updates.

As above.

Update integrated fine but showed as red.

I've also added better logging and error message for if an image does not unmount properly, i've also made cleaning unmounts for efficient by having it run only when it needs too.

----------------------------------------------------

  • 1.4.0.25^FIX: KB943790, KB971033 & KB917607 integrated detection

A few other updates showed as red when they should have been green.

  • 1.4.0.25^FIX: Crash when returning to Tools Manager

Because of the issue below, if you opened a tool more than once and then closed any of them it would cause them Win Toolkit to crash, it's a separate issue to below but the issue below uncovered a problem which may have happened in the future so it was worth fixing it now.

  • 1.4.0.25^FIX: WinToolkit allowed forms to open more than once

I did some changes in v23 which by accident allowed a tool i.e. ISO Maker to open more than once.

-----------------------------------------------------------

  • 1.4.0.27^FIX: 'Adjust Visual Styles' tweak did not work

Just a typo really.

  • 1.4.0.27^FIX: Using 'Import Image' via 'WIM Manager' had wrong options selected

It had 'New' selected by default instead of 'Existing'

  • 1.4.0.27^FIX: Update Installer hanged uninstalling updates

This was caused because DISM waited for a user response to whether it should restart or not, DISM now runs with /NoRestart syntax

  • 1.4.0.27^FIX: Updates for Windows Update itself now show green

Self-explanatory really.

  • 1.4.0.27^FIX: Links did not open correctly.

If you didn't have a default browser set or used Chrome on Windows 8, you should get some sort of class error, WinToolkit will try and open the link with the default browser, if that fails it will try and find IE, if that fails it will just show the error message.

  • 1.4.0.27^FIX: MSU to CAB Converter now opens support page on double click

Self-explanatory, just double click the update in the list and it should open the support page containing more information about the update.

  • 1.4.0.27^FIX: MSU to CAB Converter did not show correct support link

instead of showing http:///support.micr...t.com/kb/xxxxxx it just showed xxxxxx

  • 1.4.0.27^FIX: Driver Installer said 'Stop' when removing drivers

This was a debug message left by accident during testing.

  • 1.4.0.27^FIX: When uninstalling drivers, the list was still disabled.

When uninstalling drivers, the list remained disabled so you couldn't select anymore drivers to remove.

  • 1.4.0.27^FIX: When loading services presets, same values will not be checked

Services won't be ticked if the value in the preset is the same as the default value, makes no difference really but this is makes it look tidier.

  • 1.4.0.27^FIX: WinToolkit now cleans up on exit when on new update screen

Can't remember this issue fully, i just know files did not get removed if the users pressed Exit on the new update screen.

  • 1.4.0.27^FIX: Removed 'SoLoR' button from Update Catalog

Not really needed anymore.

  • 1.4.0.27^FIX: Update Checker did not load setting correctly

Self-explanatory.

  • 1.4.0.27^'Music and Video Samples' is now red

This breaks WinSAT otherwise known is Windows Experience Index so needed to be shown in red.

  • 1.4.0.27^Antivirus prompt before AIO Integration starts

Some users complained it ran slowly so this is just a reminder that there's an anti-virus running and it can slow the process down.

  • 1.4.0.27^EXE > MSU now prompts where to put the files after completion

Some users did not know where to put the *.msp files so hopefully this should make things less confusing.

-----------------------------------------

  • 1.4.0.28^New 'Donate' options

A new option when clicking the 'Donate Now' button in Tools Manager, it asks if you want to donate to me or wincert. Usually donations went to Wincert as it's a great forum and without it, Win Toolkit wouldn't exist at all so please donate to Wincert.

This new menu has always been in Win Toolkit but for some reason it didn't open it and just opened the webpage, this has now been fixed.

------------------------------------------------------------

  • 1.4.0.29^FIX: Hopefully fixed Silent Installer integration of russian versions

An 'Object reference not set to an instance of an object' message when adding silent installers on the unofficial Russian version of Win Toolkit, hopefully it is fixed now.

  • 1.4.0.29^FIX: Access Denied error when copy directories

An error log indicated that someone got an access denied message when a copy directory task was in progress, Win Toolkit will not take ownership and try again if needed.

  • 1.4.0.29^FIX: Index error when uninstalling update via Update Installer

Obsolete code from testing caused this error, it has now been removed.

  • 1.4.0.29^FIX: Internet Explorer did not add to AIO integrator correctly

Internet Explorer did not get added to the Updates list properly and a language pack could sometimes be marked as priority instead.

  • 1.4.0.29^FIX: Some code and UI fixes to Component Remover

Hopefully remove an annoying bug which is caused when users try and close this tool early.

  • 1.4.0.29^Update Catalog now removes empty directories

I noticed that my download folder for updates had a lot of empty folders and made it look messy, these are now deleted and makes things look a lot cleaner.

  • 1.4.0.29^Windows 8 option for Downloads > Windows ISOs

Self-explanatory, Win Toolkit now gives you the option to download Windows 8 ISOs

  • 1.4.0.29^Main tooltips now show for 30s instead of 5s

Some tooltips did not show long enough, the main ones now show for 30s instead of 5, but tooltips showed in lists are the same as i can't change them.

  • 1.4.0.30^FIX: IE9 LangPack will now go green

IE9 LangPack will now go green during integration.

  • 1.4.0.30^FIX: Multiple errors when closing WIM Manager during 'Save & Rebuild' unmount

If a user unmounted an image with 'Save & Rebuild' option and then close WIM Manager, the user would get many error messages.

  • 1.4.0.30^FIX: Update Catalog did not detect additions folder

There is an additions folder on the McRip update server which wasn't previously detected. Also while SoLoR is having a break, i have hidden the option to use his server.

  • 1.4.0.30^IBAN/BIC/SWIFT options added to donation screens

Some users don't like PayPal so i've added internet transfer details as well for those who like to send donations.

  • 1.4.0.30^Massively improved update compatibilty detection

If you select an RTM update and you have selected an SP1 image, the update will not be added. If an update does not support your version of Windows i.e. RTM (7600), SP1 (7601), the updates won't be added.

  • 1.4.0.30^USB Boot Prep enhancements

USB Boot Prep will by default try and format with NTFS (if NTFS selected) and if that fails it will then try FAT32 and then convert it.

  • 1.4.0.30^SoLoR Updates option temporarily removed

Mentioned above, it has been hidden due to the fact that they are no longer updated.

--------------------------------------------------

  • 1.4.0.33^FIX: Added Windows Self-Update cabs now load

Self explanatory, the issue was in the code which detects if the package is for your version of Windows.

  • 1.4.0.33^FIX: Adding langugage packs support links now fixed

The support links when adding language packs add "N/A" at the end of it.

  • 1.4.0.33^FIX: 'Solor' was the default folder for the Update Catalog

SoLoR was the default name of the folder for the Update Catalog.

  • 1.4.0.33^Rebuilding image shows image number

Self-explanatory

  • 1.4.0.33^Some code enhancements

May have fixed some other bugs, added more log details for any future errors.

--------------------------------------------------

  • 1.4.0.34^New notification for invalid updates

This will let users know why an update has not been added to the list.

  • 1.4.0.35^FIX: Wrong status after 'Clear Lists' in AIO Integrator

When using the 'Clear Lists' button the status remained 'Checking clear lists setting' even though it had finished, so i fixed this to remove confusion.

  • 1.4.0.35^FIX: KB2719177 did not add to the updates list

Self-explanatory. It was due to the new compatibility checks, i've also added an option to disable the new checking via the Options tab.

  • 1.4.0.35^Less intrusive error messages when adding updates to list

Any errors when adding Updates to lists will appear at the end so the user does not receive multiple error messages making things a hell of a lot easier.

  • 1.4.0.35^Some GUI changes to Update Installer

Made things a lot tidier, also added the option to disable compatibility checking, turned LDR/QFE Mode into a button rather than a list.

-------------------------------------------------------

  • 1.4.0.36^FIX: Fixed AIO Integrator sort buttons

Move Top and Move Bottom buttons have now been fully fixed for the last time, hopefully...

  • 1.4.0.36^FIX: 'Mouse Hover Time' tweak in AIO Integrator

The restore default part of this tweak did not work.

  • 1.4.0.36^Ability to 'Save Screenshot' in the new error message window.

This should come in very handy when you receive error messages, just before the error box appears Win Toolkit will take a full screenshot and then give you the ability to save it if required. Users normally forget to take screenshots :)

-----------------------------------------------

  • 1.4.0.37^FIX: Fixed a few 'Object not set as reference' errors

Self explanatory, i received a few errors logs with this issue and decided to fix and release them ASAP.

  • 1.4.0.37^FIX: Items in 'Updates' list > 'Integrated' tab did not fit in the columns properly

The columns was not wide enough to show all of the text in the 'Integrated' > 'Updates' tab in AIO Integrator.

  • 1.4.0.37^Added Virtual PC and VirtualBox to 'Downloads' tab

Self-explanatory.

  • 1.4.0.37^Further memory enchancements and code cleanup

WinToolkit will free up spare memory every 5 seconds, not for all processes i.e. DISM, Imagex, and others you have running, just WinToolkit.exe

  • 1.4.0.37^Incorporated adf.ly into links

Might as well earn a few £££ when people use links within WinToolkit, that's my limit though as there's no chance of me having adverts within WinToolkit itself. That will just annoy everyone, me included.

-----------------------------------------------

  • 1.4.0.38^FIX: Fixed a few typos

Worked on the suggestions via 'The Little Things' topic.

  • 1.4.0.38^FIX: IE9 Language Pack integration and detection

http://www.wincert.n...ernet-explorer/

  • 1.4.0.38^Updates now show language

There is now a 'Lang' column showing the language of the msu/cab.

-----------------------------------------------

  • 1.4.0.39^FIX: Hopefully fixed copying file error with AIO Disk Creator

Made WinToolkit use new code which i have when copying directories instead of old code which AIO Disk Creator used.

  • 1.4.0.39^FIX: Fixed IE9 and XP Mode *.exe integration

This was caused by the new colum (Lang) and when adding exe the new column will just say N/A

  • 1.4.0.39^FIX: Main form is no longer TopMost

Opening links will now open in front of WinToolkit rather than behind.

  • 1.4.0.39^FIX: Update Catalog will now show top item

Rather than Update Catalog showing the top item after selecting something in the list, it actually showed a item in the middle so the user had to scroll up to see new updates, this has now been fixed.

  • 1.4.0.39^FIX: Error when adding driver if folder has been deleted/moved during integration.

If a user adds something to the AIO Integrator drivers list and then removes the folder without removing it from the list, it caused an error.

  • 1.4.0.39^Better cleanup for IE9 LangPacks

IE9 LangPacks create a cInst_xxxxxx folder in WinToolkit temp folder so it can integrate them sucessfully. Win Toolkit now removes these folder on AIO Integrator exit but also if you remove one of those updates from the list, it will also remove that specific too.

  • 1.4.0.39^Made some improvements to big improvements to MSU>CAB Converter

I've completely updated (and tested) the MSU > CAB Converter code so it works a lot better and with much less errors, also items add faster to the list but the downside is that it shows less information about each update. Still a few more improvements to make but nothing major.

  • 1.4.0.40^FIX: Update Installer will not longer try to install corrupt files

Some files are 0 bytes in size, Win Toolkit will easily detect this and skip the file.

  • 1.4.0.40^FIX: Update Catalog will delete corrupt (0 bytes) files when scanning.

Same as above, but during the scan/sorting stage Win Toolkit will remove these files so you don't end up having useless files.

  • 1.4.0.40^FIX: 'Adjust Visual Styles' tweaks now sets other checkboxes

Just read here: http://www.wincert.n...does-not-apply/

  • 1.4.0.40^FIX: File not found for Update Installer

Some users added files and then moved them after without updating the list, this of course caused an error during installation.

  • 1.4.0.40^Re-updated the unmount screen

The unmount screen has been updated, it now has tooltips with more detail about each option.

  • 1.4.0.40^Added 'Open Mount' in WIM Manager for mounted images

Usually if you had an image mounted you could double click it in WIM Manager and it will open the mount path. I've now added a button which does the same thing but that appears in all WIM Managers (AIO, Comp Remover & Reg Editor).

  • 1.4.0.40^Win Toolkit now remembers form sizes

http://www.wincert.n...ngs/#entry86903

If you have to continually resize forms then this is great for you, Win Toolkit now remembers the size of your forms on close so next time it is open the form is already the size you wanted it :D

----------------------------------------------

  • 1.4.0.41^FIX: IE9 LangPacks did not save in preset

IE9 lang packs did not save in the preset because the temp file got deleted, however now the original *.msu path now gets stored in the preset instead.

  • 1.4.0.41^FIX: Size column did not show correctly on Update catalog

McRip made some changes to his server which minorly affected Update Catalog size column, it now reads correctly.

  • 1.4.0.41^FIX: Fixed error when removing item in AIO Integrator

This was caused by code being used for the IE9 Langpack method.

  • 1.4.0.41^FIX: Fixed error when adding reg files in AIO Integrator

This error was caused because the tweaks page is a TreeView and not a ListView, Win Toolkit now detects this.

  • 1.4.0.41^FIX: Drivers did not integrate

This error was because i stupid put if (Directory.Exists("FileName")) instead of File.Exists

  • 1.4.0.41^FIX: Refixed Toolkit being on top when opening webpages

I hope this has been fixed now, mentioned in previous posts.

  • 1.4.0.41^Update catalog now shows McRips Windows 8 RC updates

McRip provided me a link for Win 8 RC Updates so i've now included them within Update Catalog, special thanks to McRip for his hard work!

----------------------------------------------

  • 1.4.0.42^NEW: Update integration system. Efficient, faster and more bug free.

The old code which integrated updates was very old from the original v1.0 and over time i had just adapted it to suit certain needs. The code had gotten quite complex, difficult to understand and very bloated.

I've taken the time to completely reprogram using stuff i've learned over the years and turned 3-4 pages of code into less than 1 page, the code is very clean and simple, it works, it has less extractions so overall it will provide you with a quicker integration whilst being virtually bug free. I've tested it extensively and it works like a charm.

  • 1.4.0.42^FIX: Importing multiple SFX files got set as 'Always Install'

If you unticked 'Force Install' and then added a bunch of SFX, Win Toolkit still added them under 'Always Install'

  • 1.4.0.42^FIX: Items could not be removed from All-In-One Integrator lists

Self-explanatory, this is due to me protecting my code recently. This issue has now been fixed whilst my code is still protected, there was also some other places where the problem would occur that i've fixed.

  • 1.4.0.42^FIX: 'Files' list in All-In-One Integrator did not get cleared

Self-explanatory, just forgot to add the line of code clearing it.

----------------------------------------------

  • 1.4.0.44^FIX: Sometimes Win Toolkit could not detect existing mount folder

For some reason a line of code had been commented out, i just un-commented and everything works fine.

  • 1.4.0.44^FIX: Fixed some DPI GUI glitches

I'm sure some people will love this fix, some buttons and other areas of the GUI did not show correctly on higher DPI/Font setting

  • 1.4.0.44^FIX: Fixed some other GUI issues to stop confusion

Just fixed some minor bugs and made it so the headers of lists can't be clicked if they hadn't been programmed to be sortable

----------------------------------------------

  • 1.4.0.46^FIX: Fixed error changing setup background

I've also added better logging to try and solve that rebuild issue.

----------------------------------------------

  • 1.4.0.47^FIX: Drag and drop in Update Installer also allowed *.msp files

I received a log that someone tried to drag and drop *.msp files and caused many errors, dragdrop will not only accept msu and cab files.

  • 1.4.0.47^FIX: AIO Integrator did not show progress

The progress bar for AIO Integrator did not always show

  • 1.4.0.47^FIX: Some integration tasks did not cancel if user requested.

Some integration tasks did not detect if the user had clicked cancel.

  • 1.4.0.47^Rechecked progress changing code.

The progress bar wasn't 100% perfect and didn't always change so i made sure all of the code which changes the progress bar is in the correct place.

----------------------------------------------

  • 1.4.0.50^FIX: Users now prevented from mounting to the desktop itself

I saw in a log that a user had selected the desktop itself (not a folder on the desktop) to mount an image, if have added code which detects if there is already a file/folder in your selected mount path, if so then it will create a folder called 'Mount' and mount it in there instead.

  • 1.4.0.50^FIX: Better cleanup when integrating addons

Integrating addons in AIO Integrator left there temp files, these now get deleted.

  • 1.4.0.50^FIX: Update Catalog did not show top of 'New Updates' section

In Update Catalog, the list was not at the top after scanning files so the user had to manually scroll up to see all of the new updates, this has now been fixed.

  • 1.4.0.51^NEW: New main screen design

I've re-designed the taking in lost of feedback into consideration. The aim and reasoning behind the new layout is to aid beginners so they know what each tool does at a glance.

  • 1.4.0.51^NEW: Mouse wheel will now move currently viewed listview

If you have a scroll wheel on your mouse and you are viewing it, Win Toolkit will now scroll up and down it.

  • 1.4.0.51^NEW: Built-in browser will load if default web browser fails to load

If Win Toolkit can't open a link with the default browser it will then try with IE9 (if available). If that fails then it will use a built-in browser.

  • 1.4.0.51^FIX: Some links did not open properly

As above, some links did not open properly.

  • 1.4.0.51^FIX: x64 recovery mode enabled even if no x86 images are selected.

The option to have x64 recovery was selected even if there is no x64 image loaded. I've also make some other UI changes, but nothing special.

  • 1.4.0.51^FIX: WIM Manager > ISO Maker had BIOS selected as default

Self-explanatory

  • 1.4.0.51^FIX: All-In-One Disk Creator > ISO Maker had BIOS selected as default

Self-explanatory

  • 1.4.0.51^FIX: WIM Registry Editor did not load correct registry location

If you load an entry in the WIM Registry Editor, Win Toolkit will open the registry key for you.

  • 1.4.0.51^FIX: Rebuilding image may accidently delete wim

This would have occured if it tried restoring a backup which didn't exist.

  • 1.4.0.51^FIX: Fixed a lot more spelling and grammar mistakes

Self-explanatory

  • 1.4.0.51^FIX: ISO Maker did not load last ISO location

ISO Maker will now load last directory and even add the filename if available.

  • 1.4.0.51^Update Catalog will now compare dates

if a new update appeared (i.e. Office) which had the same file name as a version you already, it would not let you download the new version.

  • 1.4.0.51^Donation links no longer travel through ADF.LY

Self-explanatory

--------------------------------------------------

  • 1.4.0.52^FIX: Textboxes selected all on mouse wheel scroll

When you used the new mouse wheel scroll feature with a form/tab and a textbox, it will highlight the entire thing.

  • 1.4.0.52^FIX: Hopefully fixed a few missing .dll errors

I immediately received a lot of error logs with 'Vista Api.dll' missing, i have now fixed this issue and also if the new VistaBrowserDialog doesn't load it will automatically fall back to the default FolderBrowserDialog. I've probably also fixed a few other missing .dll files. For example, when extracting files i sometimes received a report of the 7z or SevenZipSharp dll missing.

  • 1.4.0.52^FIX: VistaBrowserDialog will revert to old FolderBrowserDialog if it fails

Mention in the previous bullet point. Users usually had errors when they loaded up WinToolkit and then deleted the files created.

--------------------------------------------------

  • 1.4.0.53^FIX: All-In-One Integrator did not integrate updates if mount path had a space

Self-explanatory. If you mounted a folder to 'C:\Test Directory' it would not integrate updates due to the space.

  • 1.4.0.53^FIX: 'Disable Mapped Drive Checking' caused BSOD on install

This caused an endless reboot (BSOD) when installing Windows. This was caused because the tweak was applied to CurrentControlSet instead of CurrentControlSet001 and CurrentControlSet002. CurrentControlSet does not exist within an image.

  • 1.4.0.53^All logs will now go into 'Logs' folder

Should make a tider WinToolkit folder.

  • 1.4.0.53^Registry logging can be enabled via options

Registry logging happened regardless if the user wanted them or not.

--------------------------------------------------

  • 1.4.0.54^Update Catalog now shows Windows 8 RTM updates

McRip informed me that the server now contains RTM updates only. So i changed Update Catalog to reflect this change.

--------------------------------------------------

  • 1.4.0.55^FIX: Hopefully fixed .dll error in Addon Maker

I received a log with missing Interop.IWshRuntimeLibrary.dll, hopefully this has now been fixed.

  • 1.4.0.55^FIX: Hopefully fixed known status bar error when rebuilding images

I added a line of code (p.CancelOutputRead() ;) and another code to hopefully stop the known issue whilst rebuilding images.

  • 1.4.0.55^FIX: Silent Installers did not copy folders

If you destination directory did not exist then the folders required did not copy.

  • 1.4.0.55^Integrating Silent Installers will replace files if MD5 do not match

When WinToolkit is adding silent installers it would not replace the file, it will now but only if the MD5 does not match.

When a user tried to 'Open' an addon, it caused an error. I thought i had fixed it in the last release but now it's officially fixed.

  • 1.4.0.56^FIX: Fixed 'Save Screenshot' on error form

Sometimes the save screenshot would take a screenshot of the desktop, now it directly saves the open form.

The open file dialog and other things did not load correctly because of the Win Toolkit version number being displayed on that screen, it has now been removed from that specific screen.

The setting got applied to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE instead of HKEY_CURRENT_USER

There was a lot of missing code which i've added.

  • 1.4.0.58^FIX: Unattended Creator did not import product key

Self-explanatory. I've also made added the producy key in the WinPE section so that the user selects the correct windows edition, otherwise it will crash 20-30 mins into the install.

  • 1.4.0.58^GUI changes to WIM Manager

Made some changes to the 'Select' button within WIM Manager, this also affects All-In-One Integrator, WIM Registry Editor and Component Removal.

Should be easier for users who don't want to click the browse button first.

  • 1.4.0.59^NEW: Win Toolkit now required .NET Framework 3.5

In order to fix one of the bugs below i had to update Win Toolkit to v3.5, it was either write pages of code OR upgrade to 3.5 and write one line of code. It also brings me other advantages too over v2.0

  • 1.4.0.59^FIX: Update Catalog did not work properly outside berlin time

Some users outside Germany time would still have ticked updates because Germany time is ahead and therefore your file would not look newer.

  • 1.4.0.59^FIX: Update Installer did not work on Windows 8

Just didn't work with dism so i changed the code to 'example.msu /quiet /norestart' in order for it to work. I also tidied up the 'Installed' tab when using LDR/QFE updates.

  • 1.4.0.59^FIX: Component Removal showed incorrect group count

Each group would say a different number than the amount actually in the group i.e. 'Updates (6)' and only 2 was actually visible. I've also changed the tooltips so that they show the description of the update itself from the .mum file. That only happens for items which haven't got a description shown in the first place.

  • 1.4.0.60^NEW: Unmount screen will prompt if other wim editing tools are open on 'Save'

This will notify the user if there are other tools such as RT7Lite open before the user saves the image.

  • 1.4.0.60^NEW: New 'Add' option in All-In-One Integrator

Rather than adding each folder seperately, you can now select the root and all the subfiles will get added.

  • 1.4.0.60^FIX: FolderBrowserDialog went into root directy of previously saved

If your last directory was 'C:\ExampleRoot\ExampleSub, Win Toolkit loaded 'C:\ExampleRoot' instead.

  • 1.4.0.60^FIX: Fixed a few status messages in All-In-One Integrator

Nothing major, it was just stuff like integrating 0 of 10 when it should have been integrating 1 of 10, etc...

  • 1.4.0.60^FIX: Changing setup background could not find file

ResHacker could not be found when changing the setup background.

  • 1.4.0.60^FIX: Win Toolkit will save logs with UTC time

This is just easier for me when reading the logs. Everyone has a different timezone so the dates didn't appear correctly.

  • 1.4.0.62^FIX: Services tab in AIO was very slow when sorting columns

This was due to some code which updates the tab names and column widths each time an item was moved.

  • 1.4.0.62^FIX: Services tab in AIO was very slow when using BlackViper presets

This was due to some code which updates the tab names and column widths each time an item was ticked.

  • 1.4.0.62^FIX: Removed 'RPC Endpoint Mapper' service, caused start services hang

During Windows installation it would say setup is starting services forever...

  • 1.4.0.63^FIX: Previous form sizes now loaded correctly (maximized)

If you exited a form whilst it was on maximum, it would not load correctly next time you opened that tool, it will now be maximized as previous.

  • 1.4.0.63^FIX: All-In-One Integrator did not install LDR/QFE on XP.

If you enabled LDQ/QFE in the All-In-One Integrator using Windows XP it would not install the update, this is because pkgmgr on xp does not seem to support update-bf.mum files. XP updates did not come in .msu format.

  • 1.4.0.63^FIX: Win Toolkit now prevents users from mounting an image to the desktop itself.

Some users again mounted a folder directly to the desktop itself (not a folder on the desktop), i have added some additional protection.

  • 1.4.0.63^Update Installer disabled on XP

Wouldn't of worked on XP no matter what, so might as well be disabled.

  • 1.4.0.63^Update Retriever disabled on XP

Same as above, XP did not have msu files.

  • 1.4.0.63^Driver Installer and AIO show 'Unknown' drivers yellow instead of removing them

Driver Installer now uses similar code to All-In-One Integrator, 'Unknown' drivers will remain in the list to be integrated but will be yellow. Drivers for the wrong architecture will be removed still.

  • 1.4.0.63^Better cleanup before update integration

This is just to make sure that WinToolkit cleans up all of the temp files before another update is integrated. (cInst folders in temp folder).

  • 1.4.0.63^Made some code more simple and efficient

I've replied code which took multiple lines and turned them into a lot smaller and efficient code. This will potentially remove the amount of errors due to the code being less complex.

  • 1.4.0.73^FIX: Fixed donation links within Win Toolkit

The donations link within Win Toolkit did not work, it ended up opening 3 tabs. I've fixed this by making Win Toolkit replace spaces with '%20' on all links. Feel free to donate now :D

UPDATE: I just noticed the WinCert IBAN / BIC / SWIFT button didn't work but its now been fixed.

  • 1.4.0.73^FIX: Fixed already exists error if user presses Cancel on AIO Creator edit buttons

When a user tries to edit an image name in AIO Disk Creator and then presses cancel. You receive an error box saying Image '' already exists.
