    I asked abbodi and cengizhan for a script to handle Simplix Pack.
    The other WHD Updates Installer script is very known for me. ;)

    my script is very simple.
    prepare folders such as 1,2,3,4. put at most 50 updates to each folder. run dism with /package-path:1 and then /package-path:2 etc. if there are some updates that should be integrated first. add them manually before 1,2,3,.. folders.

    @Simplix

    Could you take a look at this post please?
    I believe you can handle this correctly for obvious reasons.

    What are the advantages and/or disadvantages of using the /Optimize flag?

    Given that it optimizes the wim file, does that mean installation of Windows may take longer due to unpacking?

    Code:
    Key / Optimize permits to optimize the size of wim-file after the integration of updates.
    I think it means rebuilding the image aka exporting all indexes to a new install.wim, reducing the size of the wim file (it cleans up the remains of the dism work).

    I can't use the simplix pack. I ran it with arguments: /ie11 /optimize /wimfile=hiddenforprivacy\install.wim /index=* and it's stuck on Updates unpacking to a temporary folder is running. :worthy:

    To Clarify.
    USB3 3.1 drivers are only added when updating a live system, however they are NOT added when updating an ISO?

    How can I skip adding the USB3 3.1 drivers in whichever method they are added?

    Thanks

    I believe they are only added to the install.wim (so Win7 can be installed via a USB3 port) but not the boot.wim

    Google translated from main Simplix site (update7.simplix.info):

    Code:
    Key / NoUSB cancels integration drivers USB 3.0 and 3.1 in the distribution system through the project Win7USB3 .

    I having problems viewing images and I'm thinking it might be related to my lack of posting but unable to confirm that in the rules. I get message that it is invalid, contact administrator which I have tried. Any suggestions on what might be happening?

    Windows setup boots from boot.wim, usb3 drivers in install.wim will not enable booting from usb3.

    The Win7USB3 project doesn't really integrate the drivers, it installs the driver during windows install (simplix mentioned that himself in this thread).

    Thank you for the clarification... Still unsure what need this fulfills since the chipset and other motherboard specific drivers will need to be installed anway.

    Well if you don't have USB2.0 or PS2 ports then you can't even navigate to install the drivers...
     
    Stop hovering to collapse... Click to collapse... Hover to expand... Click to expand...

    I just did a test last night and i found out that even when you use the batch files to offline update the install.wim, the USB3 project also gets integrated :eek:

    It doesn't show in the log or gives you the choice to select whether you want or don't want to have it done...

    If you don't want the USB3 project integrated then use the /NoUSB switch.
