    If you wan't a really quick script to do this put the avast_premier_antivirus_setup.exe in a folder C:\InstallApps

    create a FirstLogon.cmd which has the following in it:
    Code:
    @echo off
    C:\InstallApps\avast_premier_antivirus_setup.exe /VERYSILENT /NORESTART /SP- /"Chrome"="true
    echo Install complete
    pause
    
    This will run the avast setup using your silent commands and then ask you to press any key to exit when it's complete.

    If you want the system to reboot after it's completed add the following to the end of the script (after the pause line)
    Code:
    SHUTDOWN /r /t 20
    If you're not sure how to use FirstLogon.cmd then just create a .bat file and put it in the C:\InstallApps directory and manually run it post install.

    tried version 3.0.0 with windows 8.1 enterprise 64 bit on a MBR pc (MB asus M4A78LT-M-LE, athlon 64), without success. after recovery tool installation and after reboot, the image was not captured.
    instead, on the same pc, the 32 bit version of Windows 8.1 works perfectly with version 3.0.0

    You did something wrong then....there is no difference in 32 bit and 64 bit....only difference is if mbr or gpt. I would recommend you try in VMware or something similar for testing. If it works on 32 bit it will work on 64 bit. I used it on my 64 bit with no issues. Try again.

    avast premier that command is actually for the free antivirus im not sure what version doesn't work cant seem to find working silent commands with avast if any one knows a way to find the silent commands for avast preimer id love to hear it I had no luck didn't work launches the installer fine but wont install it on system boot I have a work around if anyone knows a system snapshot or monitoring tool to acertain every file and registry key made by an installer id love to hear that could do it that way too its not real important though but having a default antivirus installed with recovery is the last step to make it perfect and the silent commands are some thing but isn't exactly easy to get to knowlage tried a web search only found info for the older versions of the program

    Is it possible to boot with Win 8 Pro install media and the AnarethoS script and then apply the Windows 8.1 Pro upgrade from ISO so that the recovery image will contain a Windows 8.1 Pro installation?

    No. You can't apply the 8.1 upgrade in Audit mode.

    Download the 8.1 ISO and use that to create and capture the image and use your 8 product key and you will be fine!

    Testing on Windows 8.1 Pro MBR formatting with Version 3.0.0 Alpha 1. Only one issue i have noticed which is no biggy. One both Windows 7 and 8.x FirstLogon.cmd doesn't run as Administrator and fails on ReAgentc with Error 3 and Error 5. Since i know about this issue i have been manually re-running the file as administrator.

    Other then that your tool is great and a total life saver in terms of being able to make a recovery partition to which can restore Windows back to a fresh install. Also the DVD Recovery discs work as well. A+ work mate. Just that one glitch with ReAgentc.

    I am curious about this bug. The file always run as Administrator on my side, sice I use it to call installer for all my programs and everything works. Have you created some account during the Audit phase?

    I've been gone for awhile but have continued to use 2.11 and 1.2. I thought I would try this new 300A1.
    I have not had any problems with Win 7 x86 usb or dvd recovery however I cannot create a Win 7 DVD recovery, only usb. I have tried more than 6 times without a problem on x86 and X64 but dvd doesn't work for me on x64. I have followed instructions faithfully so I don't know where to go from here. I have been installing on both Dell and HP desktop machines.
    I hope you can help.

    Thanks, but this is for 1.3.15. The new version is 1.3.16/3.0.0-A1 (same thing) which has new options. As such, your file can't be used on newer version.
