to show features of ProfessionalEdition you need to specify the Package name in the command: Code: dism /online /get-Features /PackageName:Microsoft-Windows-ProfessionalEdition~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.3.9600.16384 /format:table >%userprofile%\Desktop\Features.txt and for the matter of mum editing, that will require some long explanation
cheers for the reply, i had a look on the msfn links and found the install_wim_tweak app and have started removing packages with that. i removed one i didn't want to though, the windows photo viewer, i thought it was the photo metro app, doh. is it possible to re-add a removed package? using windows 8.1 btw.
Get SxSExtract.vbs + SxSExpand.exe + cabarc.exe mount windows image at C:\Mount open admin cmd and change directory to where you saved the above files run this command: Code: cscript /nologo SxSExtract.vbs /IMAGE:C:\Mount\Windows C:\Mount\Windows\Servicing\Packages\Microsoft-Windows-PhotoBasicPackage~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.3.9600.16384.mum Photo.cab
how do you mount the windows image? sorry i'm still learning this stuff, sofar i know how to get features, remove the default features, run component cleanup, make updates permanent.
ok, i have the cab, how do I get the photo viewer installed again? there's only two files in the cab, what about the app files that used to be in winsxs? why are they not in the cab?
don't suppose anyones made a GUI of some sort that makes the removal of packages a bit more easier than copying & pasting them into a batch file to use with the install wim tweak app?
So i tried the install_wim_tweak.exe to shw packages and then try remove them with dism but it didnt work Code: Echo "Listing Packages/Apps" "%APPS%\GetWaikTools\install_wim_tweak.exe" /p "%MOUNT%" /d>"%BUILD%\Wmc Builder\8.1 Features\PreRegTweak-2.txt" "%APPS%\GetWaikTools\x64\Dism\Dism.exe" /Image:%MOUNT% /Get-Packages /Format:Table>"%BUILD%\Wmc Builder\8.1 Features\PrePackages-2.txt" "%APPS%\GetWaikTools\x64\Dism\Dism.exe" /Image:%MOUNT% /Get-Features /Format:Table>"%BUILD%\Wmc Builder\8.1 Features\PreFeatures-2.txt" "%APPS%\GetWaikTools\x64\Dism\Dism.exe" /Image:%MOUNT% /Get-ProvisionedAppxPackages /Format:Table>"%BUILD%\Wmc Builder\8.1 Features\PreProvisionedAppx-2.txt" "%APPS%\GetWaikTools\x64\Dism\Dism.exe" /Image:%MOUNT% /Get-Drivers>"%BUILD%\Wmc Builder\8.1 Features\PreDrivers-2.txt" Echo "Removing Hidden Packages" "%APPS%\GetWaikTools\x64\Dism\Dism.exe" /Image:%MOUNT% /Remove-Package /PackageName:Adobe-Flash-For-Windows-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.3.9600.16384 /PackageName:Checkpoint-VpnPlugin-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~en-US~6.3.9600.16384 /PackageName:Checkpoint-VpnPlugin-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.3.9600.16384 /PackageName:F5-VpnPlugin-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~en-US~6.3.9600.16384 /PackageName:F5-VpnPlugin-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.3.9600.16384 /PackageName:Juniper-VpnPlugin-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~en-US~6.3.9600.1638 /PackageName:Juniper-VpnPlugin-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.3.9600.16384 /PackageName:Microsoft-Hyper-V-ClientEdition-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~en-US~6.3.9600.16384 /PackageName:Microsoft-Hyper-V-ClientEdition-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.3.9600.16384 /PackageName:Microsoft-Hyper-V-Common-Drivers-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.3.9600.16384 /PackageName:Microsoft-Hyper-V-Guest-Integration-Drivers-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.3.9600.16384 /PackageName:Microsoft-Hyper-V-Management-Clients-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~en-US~6.3.9600.16384 /PackageName:Microsoft-Hyper-V-Management-Clients-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.3.9600.16384 /PackageName:Microsoft-Hyper-V-Management-PowerShell-Package-net~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~en-US~6.3.9600.16384 /PackageName:Microsoft-Hyper-V-Management-PowerShell-Package-net~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.3.9600.16384 /PackageName:Microsoft-Hyper-V-Management-PowerShell-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~en-US~6.3.9600.16384 /PackageName:Microsoft-Hyper-V-Management-PowerShell-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.3.9600.16384 /PackageName:Microsoft-Hyper-V-Package-ds~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.3.9600.16384 /PackageName:Microsoft-Hyper-V-Package-minkernel~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.3.9600.16384 /PackageName:Microsoft-Hyper-V-Package-net~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~en-US~6.3.9600.16384 /PackageName:Microsoft-Hyper-V-Package-net~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.3.9600.16384 /PackageName:Microsoft-Hyper-V-Package-redist~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.3.9600.16384 /PackageName:Microsoft-Hyper-V-Package-termsrv~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~en-US~6.3.9600.16384 /PackageName:Microsoft-Hyper-V-Package-termsrv~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.3.9600.16384 /PackageName:Microsoft-Hyper-V-Server-Drivers-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~en-US~6.3.9600.16384 /PackageName:Microsoft-Hyper-V-Server-Drivers-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.3.9600.16384 >"%BUILD%\Wmc Builder\Logs\Remove.txt" "%APPS%\GetWaikTools\install_wim_tweak.exe" /p "%MOUNT%" /h Here's the error i get
You have to delete owners keys so you can remove the packages, i mean don't use /d parameter in install_wim_tweak and to be sure it's working, it's better you open PrePackages-2.txt files before proceeding to removal Spoiler sounds like we need a separate thread for install_wim_tweak and further discussion, we hijacked this thread enough
hi, I still can't get a proper cab created, not sure why it's working for you guys. I tried the bubbles tool, I select the mum file from the mounted servicing folder and it outputs a cab but it's only got cat & mum files in it, no other data. why isn't it working for me? i followed the instructions. trying to create a cab for "Microsoft-Windows-InternetExplorer-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~11.0.9600.16384" to re-add it as it broke open file location.
can anyone explain exactly how to make a full cab with all the needed files to install a package? i've tried several times now and each time end up with a cab of a few kb with cats & mums, nothing else. i have the install.wim mounted, i have the bubbles gui tools with the sxs extractor script, do i need anything else?
ok, tried running from the command prompt, here's some errors it throws up; [information] couldn't find any associated assembly folders [ Error ] SxSExpand call failed - error code: 1 [ Error ] Couldn't decompress manifest maybe something wrong with my install.wim? it installed 8.1 fine though... help! is this right? >cscript sxsextract.vbs /vicioushacks /image:c:\offline\windows "c:\offline\Windows\Servicing\Packages\Microsoft-Windows-InternetExplorer- Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~11.0.9600.16384.mum" IE11.CAB tried in a virtual machine and it still fails to build a full cab. perhaps some kind person on this forum can build me the cab for IE11 on win8.1 and upload it somewhere?
