Thiersee Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 ....- an option to have MS Update enabled (instead of Windows Update)...Sorry for asking!What is the difference between Windows- and Microsoft-Update?TNX, Thiersee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mooms Posted November 3, 2012 Author Share Posted November 3, 2012 Windows Update is only for Windows, Microsoft Update is for all Microsoft products. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dareckibmw Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 Hi Lego,- an option to disable Windows DefenderIts there already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mooms Posted November 3, 2012 Author Share Posted November 3, 2012 (edited) Oh, i see, so disabling the service is enough ?Thanks dareckibmwedit: that's not the same thing!Just tested, if you disable the service, you can't install Malicious Software Removal Tool from Windows/MS Update, and Windows Defender throws an error if you try to configure it.The latter one is rather logical and expected, but the former is unexpected and proves that MRT relies on Windows Defender service.Disabling the service is too much, disabling only the software is the better option i think. (It can be easily re-enabled by an average user, not the service, and errors frighten the average user) Edited November 3, 2012 by mooms Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ricktendo Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 Use autounattend.xml to disable it and system restore (the toolkit may have those options in unattended) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mooms Posted November 5, 2012 Author Share Posted November 5, 2012 Thanks Ricks but i don't want to use autounattend.xml because i want to be able to choose any editions of win7 at install. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ricktendo Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 You can use autounattended and still have the option, just dont fill out certain parts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mooms Posted November 6, 2012 Author Share Posted November 6, 2012 Even if I merge X86 and X64 images ? It's good to know i will try. Thanks ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ricktendo Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 Yea, but you may have to do a x86/x64 xml by hand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Etz Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 (edited) If it's possible, thxNot possible, as this component gets directly downloaded from MS servers if enabled.Its not built in feature, so there is nothing you can enable in offline image.Workaround is to integrate something from Microsoft as Installer (Silverlight, NET framework, Security Essentials, etc) and if network is available during install, it gets downloaded and enabled automatically.

mooms Posted November 23, 2012 Author Share Posted November 23, 2012 It's certainly possible if we know what is done when you activate MS Update.An addon would be great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Etz Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 I`m actually doing a clean modified install this weekend, so I could actually do Packet Capturing to actually see what is getting downloaded and from where, when this option is activated by hand.

Thiersee Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 Last week I build a Win7-Prof-DVD with all the McRip-Updates with a couple of additional updates (prä-SP1 for post-SP1 and windows-Update-Agent); after Win-installation I installed Microsoft Office 2010; after this I checked Windows-Update and I got a couple of updates for windows and ALL the updates for other Microsoft products (in my case Office 2010).@EtzWorkaround is to integrate something from Microsoft as Installer (Silverlight, NET framework, Security Essentials, etc) and if network is available during install, it gets downloaded and enabled automatically.This is not enough I did an install together with Security Essentials, but the Box for "Other Microsoft Updates" was still present.Regards, Thiersee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Etz Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 For me it is usually enough to install Silverlight via WinToolkit Installer to get it activated... :g: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ricktendo Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 If you install silverlight you can probably run this to enable it"%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Silverlight\5.1.10411.0\Silverlight.Configuration.exe" -enableMU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Etz Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 It's certainly possible if we know what is done when you activate MS Update.An addon would be great. Discovered a way to do it... Set ServiceManager = CreateObject("Microsoft.Update.ServiceManager")ServiceManager.ClientApplicationID = "My App"'add the Microsoft Update Service, GUIDSet NewUpdateService = ServiceManager.AddService2("7971f918-a847-4430-9279-4a52d1efe18d",7,"") Save as *.vbs and run it for example with SetupComplete.cmd or create addon.It will enable Microsoft Update instead of plain windows Update.

mooms Posted October 26, 2013 Author Share Posted October 26, 2013 Thank you Etz, I've made a sfx for the fun and it works: MU.zip System restore can be disabled with Autounattend.xml : (here example for AiO x86/x64)<settings pass="specialize"> <component name="Microsoft-Windows-SystemRestore-Main" processorArchitecture="x86" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" language="neutral" versionScope="nonSxS" xmlns:wcm="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WMIConfig/2002/State" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"> <DisableSR>1</DisableSR> </component> <component name="Microsoft-Windows-SystemRestore-Main" processorArchitecture="amd64" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" language="neutral" versionScope="nonSxS" xmlns:wcm="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WMIConfig/2002/State" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"> <DisableSR>1</DisableSR> </component> </settings> If someone found a way to not not show the "send to recycle bin" confirmation when you hit the "supp" key it will be great.
