xerkon Posted October 26, 2013 Posted October 26, 2013 Hi, and thanks for the tool, Legolash2o! I've just started using it, and so far only for integrating hotfixes. My question is, how/why do I end up with 11 Themes I haven't added? Where do they come from? I'll step through it and you can tell me where I go wrong. 1. 7-zip - extract original W7-SP1 ISO to folder2. 7-zip - unzip fresh copy of latest Win Toolkit3. Run it, go to Main, click on All-In-One Integrator4. Browse for DVD / Folder and open extracted W7SP1 folder I created in step 15. Select Windows 7 Ultimate and Continue (No Preset)6. Click on Basic tab and then on Updates + Languages7. Add updates and click Start. All I'm integrating are Security and Non-Security updates as well as IE10. I've weeded out all the updates that don't want to integrate - everything's nice and green when it's finished.8. After everything integrates it takes me to the integrate tab. There I have Updates + Languages (157), Drivers (2) and Themes (11). Why do I have Drivers and Themes tabs? Is there some way to get rid of them before I make my ISO? I mean, I know it doesn't really matter. So what if I have a few extra themes I don't want. It's just that it strikes me as kind of odd behaviour and I'd like to understand what's going on, as much as my underwhelming brain is able!! :-) Thanks! Quote
Thiersee Posted October 26, 2013 Posted October 26, 2013 Point 1): you don't need it.Within Toolkit you can also select the ISO directly, WTK will unpack it for you. Why do I have Drivers and Themes tabs?There are some drivers and themes in a fresh windows ISO to and they will get automatically installed. Thiersee Quote
xerkon Posted October 27, 2013 Author Posted October 27, 2013 Thanks for the reply, Thiersee. You can see my before and after screens below. So are you saying that the extra 5 themes that get added automatically (Australia, Canada, U.K., S. Africa and U.S.) are part of the original, untouched W7SP1 ISO? In the past I've used RT 7 Lite to integrate updates and none of these themes were added. Below you can see the difference between the RT 7 Lite and Win Toolkit: Maybe I should put it like this. I want to use Win Toolkit to create a Windows 7 SP1 Image that DOESN'T include the Australia, Canada, United Kingdom and South Africa themes. I also don't want a second copy of the United States theme. (I just now saw that there are two of those.) Surely this is possible? Quote

I want to use Win Toolkit to create a Windows 7 SP1 Image that DOESN'T include the Australia, Canada, United Kingdom and South Africa themes. Surely this is possible? Those are built in themes, which are hidden by default...If you dont really want those, use Component remover on them... Quote
xerkon Posted November 4, 2013 Author Posted November 4, 2013 That's what I needed to know. Thanks, Etz! Quote
dareckibmw Posted November 8, 2013 Posted November 8, 2013 Component remover doesn't remove *.theme, it only removes wallpapers. Quote
ccl0 Posted November 26, 2013 Posted November 26, 2013 i remember that happeneing to me too. it was either 'remove' them and have black boxes or ignore them. i chose to ignore them Quote
