Having a test with basic version here, looks good.

 

Using your autounatted file, is there a way to have it set timezone as UKL, rather that default US?

i installed this software successfully to several computers with no problem . but yesterday, i noticed an error "recovery partition enabler not found". what could this be? the software still works. i'm just curious.

 

First of All Thanks to AnarethoS for making this Awesome tool and Thanks to tcntad for making good Guide and every who works for this Project (Video quality @ youtube is not too good but it's Okay as tut.. anywayI am thinking to Upload It's HD Edition)

Okay..Now come to some Questions

1.Can we Removed Recovery tool's entry from Start Menu ? (B'cu i want to make this Invisible) [I think Yes]
2.Can we Create 4th partition for Data etc and hope this will not effect after Recovery ]i think Yes]

Need You answer

 

1. Yep, delete the shortcut?
2. Yep, gi back "few" pages and you'll find autounattend.xml files.

 

no my mean is About to "shrink c drive" for making drive for data

 

Then do it.

 

@Anarethos

Great utility m8. I've based my own version from looking at your code. Instead of having a separate winpe/re for capturing the OS, I've just included the following check in my recover.exe.
"If NOT FileExists("R:\Recovery\WindowsRE\install.wim") Then
Capture()
Exit
EndIf"
I'm also just using 2 partitions. 1st is the OS & the 2nd is the active recovery. I've had no issues having the boot files on the Recovery partition even though it's hidden & type 0x27.
I do remember reading somewhere in the opk that MS expects type 0x27 partitions to be 1st but in all my testing it hasn't mattered...

Thanks for your work & supporting the users here...
