Hi MSMG: the link for Microsoft Windows ThinPC Add-ons Pack for MSMG ToolKit on MEGA is the same as for Microsoft Windows To Go (English) Pack for MSMG ToolKit. Could you please supply with correct MEGA link if it's possible? Regards PS: Congrats on your latest update, keep it up... cgp
There seems to be problem with the mega site where I have uploaded the ThinPC Add-ons Pack, it's not showing the complete url when clicked on get link. will again upload that file and add the link. until then use the secondary link I have added to the first post.
Hi MSMG, I have noticed that the Gadgets (Windows Sidebar) cannot get any connetion. Wheater or Currency say "Cannot connect to Service". Is this a known issue?
@ MSMG: Thanks for offering this fine toolkit. I just have tested it successfully. Just a side note: Within the start post section "How to Use MSMG ToolKit?" you have written: , but you forgot to mention, that the "MSMG ToolKit Archive" has to be extracted to any folder of the system drive (drive C ). Otherwise it will not work, because the toolkit will not find any of the files.
well its a known issues and also Microsoft has released a update to disable these gadgets as there is a security issue using this gadgets.. but there is a fix for enabling these gadgets to work, I will include the fix in the next version and it may take some time...
Well I had just given an example c:\w81 but the toolkit will work properly if you use it on any drive, the only thing is the folder name should not contain a space in between as the script won't work properly if there is a space. am quite busy and so still I haven't updated the first post with procedure to use the toolkit and do it soon.
I noticed when I added the netfx3 without the /source and /limitaccess specified it would download both the 16384 and the updates... I wonder if we can do this on a server 2012 version and see if all the files show up in the download folder or if it will be the same folders + the same 2919355 updates I captured... Edit: msmg - after playing with dedup some more it would seem that we either need an updated set of files or need to ignore the 2919355 update. I updated my system after installing the dedup, and after updating with 2919355's files the system's main drive will perform extremely poorly. My normal rotary drive transfer rate is about 100-120 MB/sec After update it was about 10 MB/sec. People should be warned not to update through Windows Update after installing this. The sluggish speed didn't go away until I disabled the feature and uninstalled all packages associated with it. The following sample script can be used to uninstall: Code: dism /online /disable-feature /featurename:Dedup-Core /norestart dism /online /remove-package /packagepath:"Microsoft-Windows-VdsInterop-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.3.9600.16384.cab" dism /online /remove-package /packagepath:"Microsoft-Windows-VdsInterop-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~en-US~6.3.9600.16384.cab" dism /online /remove-package /packagepath:"Microsoft-Windows-FileServer-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.3.9600.16384.cab" dism /online /remove-package /packagepath:"Microsoft-Windows-FileServer-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~en-US~6.3.9600.16384.cab" dism /online /remove-package /packagepath:"Microsoft-Windows-Dedup-ChunkLibrary-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.3.9600.16384.cab" dism /online /remove-package /packagepath:"Microsoft-Windows-Dedup-ChunkLibrary-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~en-US~6.3.9600.16384.cab" dism /online /remove-package /packagepath:"Microsoft-Windows-Dedup-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.3.9600.16384.cab" dism /online /remove-package /packagepath:"Microsoft-Windows-Dedup-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~en-US~6.3.9600.16384.cab" User should restart after running the full thing.
When Moderate had released the De-Dup Pack the update package KB2934018 was not released. may be that's why the update package KB2919355 shows up again in windows update. may be we should try integrating KB2934018 and KB2959977 after integrating De-Dup pack so that the de-dup files will get updated.
Hi msmg, just wanna ask u something, have u try to use this toolkit in other host operating system than windows 8.1? Try with windows 7 sp1, it cant check the wim image inside the sources folder (or this tool only for windows 8.1?) Detail : 1. Host OS : Windows 7 SP1 x64 2. Target OS : Windows 8.1 x64 3. Toolkit version : 1.08 EDIT : I think I know the problem, the toolkit.exe doesn't need to be run as administrator (based on ur instruction in the first page it should be run as administator) since I'm using a standard administrator account (not built in administrator), so I test again in built in administrator account (with or without run as administator) and bingo, it doesn't work at all.
I haven't tested the toolkit on windows 7, but on windows 8.1 it works for both target os w7 and w81. did u test the toolkit on w7 host os with w7 as target os, does it works? am too busy these days, will check and fix windows 7 host os compatibility for the next version of toolkit. yes the toolkit won't requires right click and run administrator anymore as i have added the administrator manifest to the toolkit executable so that it works on normal account too.
I need to correct something, it's not work in windows 7 even the target OS is the same (windows 7 too), apparently I test that in windows 8.1 in standard administrator account(without run as administrator) but ur previous version work, the only problem is it cant check the wim image when we select source even boot.wim or install.wim exist, so I'm not sure it's becuz the permission or something (have no idea why).
have u placed the toolkit inside user folders like documents or download or desktop.. or is there any space in the toolkit folder name.. also check disabling the UAC
