not only what it does but where it stores everything. finally figured out how to enable the start and stop buttons on the dwmappushsvc service and can easily shut it down without restarting with some easy edits and a taskkill. now iv'e got to compare two VMs to with it running and the one where it is not running to see what the difference is. spent the weekend getting those two problems nailed down, and now it's time to rest.
I'm still working on getting my desktop machine full up and running. I'll be toying with it off n on throughout the week because one hard drive is being a pain in the ass. That being said I wanna be able to remote access the desktop so as I can easily compare VMs when I'm not around
@JinJin: We need a way to reverse the changes now for the uninstall script. Then I'll post 1.10 for testing and then switch it version number wise. We also need to insert an about box with a text box detailing contributions to who did what. I've also modified the script to make it so you cannot change the size of the GUI within windows. The new size is 300 by 175. I'm building this inside of Visual Studio 2013 how do I add a button to open a text box to list contributors for this project? Mr. Jinjie clear your inbox btw.
not sure if it's widely known yet, so i'll just post it anyways. the files that are uploaded to MS are stored in C:\Users\All Users\Microsoft\Windows\Sqm\Upload at least this is the folder that is cleared when the upload happens. shut down diagtrack and dmwappushsvc and they don't get uploaded. restart these and they are again uploaded. anyone figure out what's in these files or if any other files are included in the upload.
Where can I find the script that you guys are using for testing. I want to see what I can do with it. Add my part to it if that is okay.
You raise a valid point. We can fix this by depreciating the version numbering to 0.09 from the current 1.09. Meaning the next build will be 0.10 and so forth.
Is that how you stopped the dmwappushsvc manually? From my limited knowledge that's the same thing as using setacl
also maybe there should be something in the script that deletes all the SQM files that have accumulated. almost forgot, i ran the script and it said it couldn't find HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Diagnostics\DiagTrack\TestHooks and stopped. not sure if it finished. host file was written, but i'm not sure.
no stopping it manually is another process. that text file just makes it so you can use the buttons in services.msc. to stop the task manually without restart i use a couple of other edits. and a taskill /f /pid command.
btw. what happened to your CMD script. i like that better than the PS ( no offense SMorgan ). i couldn't use paths with PS had to be in the script directory. took me the longest time to figure out.
