    everything is right, you have copied the source to the right folder.. it should work.. you are using Windows 7 x64 as the HOST OS.. can u post the WimInfo.txt contents present in the Logs folder when you choose select source menu.

    .Net Framework 3.5 is required only for removing metro apps.. the toolkit checks for .net framework 3.5 using the windows 8.1 features.. that's why it's not showing as not installed..

    I just did as you requested, but the C: ToolKit Logs folder only has a Dism.txt file inside and it is BLANK... There is NO WimInfo.txt file... :confused:

    Guys,
    where is the Windows 7/Vista Gadget pack?
    I can only find the Games one, with all languages...
    EDIT
    By looking at the Toolkit files, they are integrated
    Well done but say it somewhere! lol

    Since the Sidebar, DeDup, WTG Pack were small in size when zipped I included it with ToolKit Archive itself.. I should have mentioned it..

    next time when downloading, I will keep these packs as separate achieves files.

    When using WinToolKit, in the last phase do rebuild all the image indexes in order to reduce the size of the wim image.

    I don't know how ANARETHOS RECOVERY TOOLS coz I haven't used it before..

    If You want to Integrate Custom Windows Recovery Environment (WinRE) using ToolKit then

    1) copy the custom winre.wim and optionally it's xml file to ToolKit's <Packs\WinRE\w7x or w8x\x86 or x64> folder.

    2) then choose Integrate menu and choose option [J] Custom Windows Recovery Environment<WinRE>

    3) the ToolKit will copy the custom winre.wim file to Windows\System32\Recovery folder and overwrite the existing one..

    4) choose the apply source from main menu..

    anyname: I used MSMG's Toolkit on Win8.1 and it worked very well. Since you're using Win7 and it has so many updates available, I'd suggest to eliminate groups of updates until you determine which one is causing your install problem.

    Start by eliminating the "Extra Updates" and "Additional Updates" groups from WHDownloader and then see if a freshly updated .iso will install without the error. If it does, start adding updates back in to your integration until you find the one that's causing the error. If you're still getting that error installing without those two groups integrated, eliminate more until you find what's causing the conflict.

    First I added :
    "General" , "Hotfix" , "Security" => ISO install and no bug problems
    Then I on windows, check for updates => notifies missing some updates "Security" => I do not know how the update is enough?
    I have added all => bugs all begins here

    Update is needed for Windows?
    Thanks

    anyname: For Win7, some updates might show in Windows Update but they are old and have have been replaced with updates that have newer components (if you've integrated the General, Hotfix and Security groups from WHDownloader). No update is needed.
