I have Windows 10 / Windows 7 dual boot on my laptop. Boot mode is UEFI with CSM and my hard drive is correctly formatted and partitioned in GPT. Windows 7 used to work well before I decided to fully re-install it.First bit of background, (I believe) I am experienced in installing Windows and playing around with WIMs and related utilities. I manually captured a backup WIM a long time ago but now I don't want to use it. I took install.wim from the 64-bit Windows 7 DVD image and applied it by hand:Dism.exe /Apply-Image /ImageFile:E:\sources\install.wim /Index:3 /ApplyDir:G:\ /VerifyI formatted drive G prior to installing so it's clean.I left the BCD unchanged and tried booting it. Well it stuck at disk.sys. I then applied the backup WIM to make sure everything is fine. So it is. The system from my backup WIM functions normally, without anything else changed. This ensures that all my configuration like BCD and BIOS settings are correct.I do NOT want to create any USB installer or burn a DVD. How would I make a freshly "installed" Windows 7 boot?

To add reg (with silent parameter) and msi (also with silent parameters) support to this script... and maybe subfolder support in software folder for exe reg and msi too... i think a year ago i asked for help again but i couldn't figure it out at mydigitallife forums This is what I have done before. Silent setup folder, reg key, drivers, updates.. I'm using it on my Windows 7 AIO. Today Im going to re-test it on Windows 10... After that new topic is coming Last edited: Sep 11, 2020 #13 i only add portables and ghosted installers - where i previously sniffed an installer with RegFromApp to create a reg file - converted to a bat file, copied the program files folder to $OEM$ then ran the bat post setup. only used for things like 7zip where i need a context menu entry, 7+TT and TExtify and to register a dll only.

But thanks for the that old tutorial of your - I'll look into that - appreciate it. Look forward to seeing your result with Windows 10 result.@ega914 I tried your solution and it turned out it didn't work out as I thought (Windows copy the Software folder to the C: Drive). I'm going to look at my OOBE.cmd and do some modification. #15 Put software folder in to your iso. actually any drive but c drive. script clearly shows that only c drive is not being searched. FOR %%i IN (D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z) #16 ege914 The Software folder is in the ISO I made with NTLite (under $OEM$\$1).

I didn't know there was another stage besides OOBE. Anyway, is it on that stage (Specialize) that the bloatware from
