Which tool did you use to copy to DVD root? AIO/ WIM Manager? i always tend to just copy and paste it manually lol.

I always use AIO tool for all image manipulating operations.

Wim Manager I use only rarely and only when I need to merge/remove OS images.

OK, copying manually is fine, but for some odd reason, some of W7Toolkit versions did it automatically...

EDIT: Copied file manually, made new ISO (based with old one)...ran virtualbox... still asks accepting EULA, Network Location and Update Settings?

Also autologin one of the users didnt succeed altough users were actually created.

(Image is x64 if it matters)

- I prefer manual copy to automatic.

- It doesn't ask EULA. Are you sure?

@Etz

I see inside your Autounattend.xml file:


<FolderLocations>
					    <ProfilesDirectory>D:\Users</ProfilesDirectory>
					    <ProgramData>D:\ProgramData</ProgramData>
</FolderLocations>

Warning:

ProfilesDirectory
The ProfilesDirectory setting specifies the path to the user profile folder.
Caution:
This setting should be used only in a test environment. If you change the default location of the user-profile directories or program-data folders to a volume other than the system volume, you cannot service your image. Any updates, fixes, or service packs will not be applied to the installation.
For a list of known issues with this setting, see Description of known issues with the FolderLocation settings..
Using this setting to redirect folders to a drive other than the system volume blocks upgrades. Using ProfilesDirectory to point to a directory that is not the system volume will block SKU edition upgrades and upgrades to future versions of Windows®. For example, if you use Windows 7 Home Premium with ProfilesDirectory set to D:\, you will not be able to upgrade to Windows 7 Ultimate or to the next version of Windows. The servicing stack does not handle cross-volume transactions, and it blocks upgrades.

Use this setting to move the user-profile folder (typically %SYSTEMDRIVE%\Users) to another location during Setup or when Sysprep is running. The destination path can be on a volume other than the system drive, as long as it meets the following requirements:
It must be on an NTFS volume.
It must not be the path of another operating system user-profile folder.
It must not contain any serviceable components.
This setting can be used to keep system data separate from user data. If Windows® is re-installed on the system volume, a user with administrative rights can manually recover data from this location.

ProgramData
The ProgramData setting specifies the path to the program-data folder.
Important: This setting should be used only in a test environment. If you change the default location of the user-profile directories or program-data folders to a volume other than the system volume, you cannot service your image. Any updates, fixes, or service packs will not be applied to the installation.
For a list of known issues with this setting, see Description of known issues with the FolderLocation settings..
Use this setting to move the program-data folder (typically %SYSTEMDRIVE%\Program Files) to another location during Setup or when Sysprep is running. The destination path can be on a volume other than the system drive, as long as it meets the following requirements:
It must be on an NTFS volume.
It must not be the path of another operating system program-data folder.
It must not contain any serviceable components.

@myselfidem it isnt a problem. Also doing this for years, had no issues so far and also I`m aware of its risks.

Also it doesnt affect updates and service packs. At least in practice.

Its the only way that MS actually is supporting to move Users stuff away from system drive.

Moving after user is created, will introduce multiple issues, duplicate folders will emerge, etc...

Also its not advisable to move any user data folders post install (even MyDocuments), because if you install "hard coded" app, you will have duplicate folders.

(Samsung KIES is just one annoying exanmple, it will produce secondary MyDocuments folder, always to C:\Users\Username\).

If you do it via unattended, it doesnt produce those issues, because all symbolic links and registry keys will be updated and changed accordingly

Fine, if it's OK for you!

Yes, you are right about trying to move post install!

However, useful info:

*Edit: I'm not sure the files and folders moved will be more secure!!!

Nope, but definately is useful, if you have SSD+HDD Combo.

SSD sizes are still a bit limited, comparing to their prices...

I also know that script, but somekind of a reason, it corrupted user profiles and produced whole list of issues... :g:

About XML Creator!

It's possible to merge inside Autounattend.xml files (anyCPU) for x86/x64 file, like this:

Hmm...its getting a bit frustrating already, whatever I try, it seems that EULA, Network Location and also Update settings wont get applied...

Also, cannot get autologon to work anymore, if I have more than one user defined...still I cannot figure out, what is wrong with my XML, all seems like it should be...

Will try to create new one with WSIM later, maybe that would work...

Edited November 15, 2011 by Etz

Works fine for me if I change like this, example:

This might be an off the wall question, but is there a program that will create an Autounattended.xml file for you using an existing live system as a model? In other words, it will create the Autounattended.xml to produce a system setup just like your existing system? It was just an off-beat thought.

Cheers and Regards

myselfidem · November 15, 2011

I think I'm in the heart of the problem!

My example above is to show how works AutoLogon with an Autounattend.xml file fully unattended!

Using Username : Administrator - inside AutoLogon - activate the built-in Administrator and not the Admin User, to log on automatically!

The best way is to create a simple XML Creator with the needed values!

@Myselfidem

Here is the first autounattend.xml file you gave me. It has no user and works fine both x32/x64.

I have tried to add a user and autologon for a day. I couldn't :g:

can you add this autologon and user to the file for me?


<AutoLogon>
				<Enabled>true</Enabled>
				<LogonCount>9999999</LogonCount>
				<Username>user1</Username>

What do you mean? There aren't different passwords.

I tried the same empty passwords.

do you have fully silent an example file ?

@myselfidem you should warn users, that your XML also erases whole disc and repartitions it.

BTW, can you post example, how to format only two partitions on single HDD machine. eq. Disk 0 Part 1 nad Part 2. (System and Windows Install one), but leave third one (user data) untouched?

BTW I still havent had success aplying unattended via W7Toolkit, so I guess I have to do it all manually

What happens if you use W7T and then just manually save it to the DVD root, without using the AIO Apply Unattended for WIM Manager one either?

What happens if you use W7T and then just manually save it to the DVD root, without using the AIO Apply Unattended for WIM Manager one either?

Basically same, if I use the one , created with Unatended Creator.

I`ll try to put together that Unattended.xml by hand, to see what will happen then. (only with settings that doesnt work).

So far I havent found anything wrong with Unatended Creator outputted file, so I cannot really say, why its ignoring some of the settings...

Maybe its ordering in that file or something like that... :g:

OT: RT7Lite has the very same issue, with unatended. (Network location and Update settings are ignored in XML and asked every time).

Altough I`m not using it anymore.

Can you attach the unattended file of W7T and also attached a working unattended but without any extra details like partitioning, it possibly is ordering as i've recently been asked to change it.

P.S. I've also got a feeling the using the 'Apply Unattended' features in W7T is having an effect on this aswell and i may simply just change them so that they just simply copy it to the dvd root and not integrate it into the image.

Not working: http://www.wincert.n...dpost__p__79229 - Created with Unnatended Creator

(but already applied into image) - For me, nothing seems to be wrong...but its not working.

Basically I dont have a fully working set yet...

Cannot create new one "untouched" also at the moment (I`m at work and dont have Windows PC available at the moment).

W7Toolkit just doesnt run on Wine (yeah I know, NET framework needed, etc)
