    It works very well right now and Of all People I still haven't actually gotten passed or to a 30 day rearm...lol

    Should use virtualbox from now on but is there a from now on...?

    Are we done...lol

    I dunno

    1. Automate from windows a restart and back into windows with one click
    2. Inside windows do all this with rearm reset periodically as needed

    It is like really cool man

    I think though we could agree that IR4 can only increase it's user friendliness by completing the restart, RE loop back into windows fully automatically.

    Otherwise the program that might do all this inside windows with no reboot neccessary is a completely different animal

    Typing C:reset is the price the user has to pay for getting Windows for free ;)

    @timesurfer

    Thanks for your dedication and vision to see through IR4 can be automated to the extend that it can be and thus as user friendly as it possibly can. Now IR4 is a serious contender to Windows loader.

    @MasterDisaster

    Thanks for your undying support and your valuable contributions to make IR4 a viable tool for people to continue using windows cleanly and no activation in a perpetual trial.

    Thanks to both of you.

    Hey timesurfer and MasterDisaster.

    Nice work. Just downloaded the 2.7 version. Sorry I couldn't be here from the 2.4 up to now for testing but my damned satellite ISP wouldn't cooperate... ahh screw those bastards. Anyway, just got the 2.7 and gonna try it in a few.

    Once again, great work!

    You should notice a smoother install and it automatically boots into RE and then after RE cmds restarts automatically

    Also the manually rearm button now resets task when rearming as to synchronize task and rearm perfectly and create current and consistent check task status data

    Yes, the install is smoother and the automatic boot into RE works great... a very nice feature. I didn't notice any problems whatsoever.

    I read in the previous posts (and did see it in the Task Manager) that the "Run task as soon as possible after a scheduled start is missed" is now unchecked... we shouldn't check it manually, should we?

    As of now I have a highly experimental code with me, that eliminates the third instruction ("Note the drive letter of operating system").
    What I have done is copied a file to the System Volume Partition(always assigned C: in RE) that will call the actual reset.bat by looking up the Serial Number of the OS drive.

    Everybody has to just enter C:reset and the job will be done, irrespective of they OS being in D or E drive.

    Get the experimental batch from here.

    Na that advanced setting sucks. It gave MD and myself big headaches and ultimately causes the task to always be in queue not ready like it should

    @MasterDisaster

    Console works terrific

    You have C: by default right, so this change won't affect you in any manner. Can you please test it out on a VM.

    I have E: and it works too. Just need to test it for D:.

    When you install on a fresh VM, the hidden partition is created which is C: and the OS is on D:

    The batch file is correct.

    I will remove the REM

    before that one line

    Code:
    REM echo IF NOT "%%~d0" EQU "C:" del C:\reset.bat >>%file%
    And I will test IR4 on virtual box with the new code
