Yea but with this one you can get the Vista Aero Glass Look

i did both acctualy, i saw after a win install under vmware that the 3 shortcuts in the start menu were not working, i did a search and the 3 exe arent even copyed at all.so i cheked ure inf, and im prety sure the names arent good and i think ure misisng 1-2 entries fore the files to get copyed when integrated.

edit:

shouldint ure inf look something like this;

My addon does not use the inf to copy the files to system32... It uses txtsetup.sif, look at the entries.ini. The inf is used only to add the shortcuts (also its used for uninstall)

AeroSide.exe = 100,,,,,,,2,0,0,Aero_Sidebar_Clear.exe
LongSide.exe = 100,,,,,,,2,0,0,Aero_Sidebar_Longhorn.exe
VMPlayer.exe = 100,,,,,,,2,0,0,Vista_MiniPlayer.exe

I just tested this addon again and nothing is wrong with it

EDIT: That INF you posted above is not my INF file. No clue where you got it from or who the hell moddified it
