    Just wondering if there was anyway to delete or make hidden the project.log file? I wondering because I mainly only use the project to activate Windows 7 though SLP and not have to use SLMGR and the SLIC file or an activator. If not no big deal I normally delete it after the install. Just asking as I'm making AIOs to give to a service desk to reimage customer machines if needed. I was using DEL /F /Q %SystemDrive%\Project.log in the OOBE file but it no longer works. Thanks again for all your work.

    Create a run once reg entry which runs your cmd file to delete the log file. ;)

    Damn-it, I just realized I left the guest user pics that I was testing in the project scripts. Let me remove them and then will re-up again. Sorry folks. It does effect anything but still useless code that can now be removed. Give a bit and I will update links.

    Project links updated but same version date to correct my testing of guest images. Sorry for my delay was helping a person on the login changer thread.

    Santa came early...guess what? I found the reg entry pointing to images that are protected. I took control of reg entry and changed location to our installed oem image path and what do you know, it worked. It has user id in registry but I can query that info from cmd file. I am at a friends house right now redoing his computer and was playing on my lappy in vmware and by chance noticed this possible workaround. In theory I should have no issues applying this reg entry with our user pic location path. I wish I would have seen this a few days ago. Going to create a test project to see if this solves our problem with the login user pic. I am not holding my breathe but this seems promising. :)

    Testing in vmware now with no activation to see if it still applies then will test with kms...

    The routes are the same as most use for host file editing but route is better because host can't block ip's and it only works with IE not other browsers. I disabled some scheduled services that send telemetry and stop a few that auto run. None of which interferes with apps like Skype etc. Some still use those apps so I don't touch them. If included in scripts folder then script will auto pick it up and apply it. If you want details on the ip's then insert them in google and you will see specifics.

    Note: The WinTel.cmd runs completely silent even from desktop if users wish to use it from that location. ;)

    I try to tell that after working off Install.cmd other scenario ceases to be carried out (
    IF EXIST "%windir %\Setup\scripts\WinTel.cmd" (ECHO %DATE % %TIME % WinTel.cmd file present and applied.>> "%SystemDrive %\Project.log")> nul
    IF EXIST "%windir %\Setup\scripts\WinTel.cmd" CALL "%windir %\Setup\scripts\WinTel.cmd"

    %RQR % | findstr/I "\<WINDOWS \>" | findstr/I "\<7 \>" >nul&&%INL% GOTO:CLOSE
    %RQR % | findstr/I "\<WINDOWS \>" | findstr/I "\<VISTA \>" >nul&&%INL% GOTO:CLOSE

    :: Enables f8 key for Win 8.x and Win 10 in desktops and laptops | To disable this feature for tablets put:: in front of the line below
    bcdedit/set {default} bootmenupolicy legacy> nul

    :CLOSE
    DEL/F/Q %0 % >nul&&EXIT) in OOBE.cmd

    Can you share your log file which is located on the root of your drive, please and thank you. If any key is in the log you can replace with x's in order to keep private.

    I found the issue and testing now in vmware. Minor error that most including myself have never noticed. Let me finish testing then I will upload, again. lol

    Funny, when I ask for log file ppl leave. lol

    No, you will have to set those yourself. Everyone has different preferences.

    Run query tool first to see if your laptop meets requirements.
