The main core of the project is the same as it was, mainly OEM branding, the other bits are just an added bonus if you wish to use them such as the options etc. Just using the oobe.cmd, decompile.exe and OEM's.7z the project will be almost identical to the original project, the only difference is more checks on the DMI side and a few improvements in other parts of that routine's code but other than that 90% the same. The addition of the MRPConfig.ini and the use of the Creator to make option selection easier makes tweaking the OS during install less of a hassle, if the end user so requires, plus there are over 160 options, most are later OS specific but a good section is for older OS's too.
MRP v126 is at RC4 stage now and very close to completion Added a new option (General) : 'Theme Settings' desktop CT menu, this will have simple items such as Desktop Icons, Sound, Screen Saver etc - the items will depend on the OS installed, on win 7 there maybe two extra ones for Colors and Backgrounds. They should be auto-translated into the OS's Language but maybe one or two will not and just be called 'Appearance' / 'Color Management' and the other 'Background' / 'Wallpaper' in English -- it depends if that item name can be auto-translated at runtime. Most likely will add extra items to that sub-menu at a later time, the ones available are awkward to find under win 8.x/10 such as 'Sounds' and the 'Desktop Icons' so they may be of use to someone. As always this may change due to how the OS's evolves and those items may no longer be operative as the control panel is removed. *Edit* Starter and ~Basic Editions may have less menu items as they are not available for those specific Editions.
Only background one not translate i had expected that a possible one that would of failed as i not able to find the translateable string table. Looks like others translate ok and under w7 too
As mentioned starter and ~~basic editions will not use some items as those theme elements either not exist or cause an error. So i just set a flag if those editions detected and ignore bits. Note even w10 starter , which not strictly exist will ignore certain items too.
MRP 126 is now at Baseline Candidate 1 stage Hopefully sorted the auto-translation of 'Background' to 'Configuration' (translated)... If specific string tables are not present, it should default back to en-us/english and not show any weird text in the menu item names. Query Tool v106.0 should hopefully be released later today, if MRP passes this final hurdle then that too will be released within the next 24hrs
Query Tool v106.0 has been uploaded, 2nd post's download link, password and hashes updated. Spoiler: QT 106 Summary + When the Query Tool has completed there will be TWO logs saved to the Desktop, one being the usual 'safe to post' version and the new 'PrivateCopy_QTvxxx.xxxxx' log which shows all keys, serial numbers etc - NEVER post this log anywhere as it may contain sensitive data. + Updated various routines to be hopefully more efficient and removed some old no longer required code. + Added Defrag task{s} statuses, shows if the task{s} are enabled/ready etc.
