    OK, I may have done something wrong,
    do I also need the x86 installer from winrar if I only use
    the x64 version ?

    for me it looks like this.

    winrar-x64.exe winrar-x64.txt and the txt has the switch /S
    is that correct ?

    ok i'll run again, and take photos

    @KleineZiege

    You find out why it doesn't work on your side.

    WinRar.txt is universal file for both architecture. Script split installer filename by - (dash) and looks for part before it to correct TXT. So -x64, -x86 or -all are ignored from TXT files.

    yes one works now :)
    I took the -x64 out of the txt, and now the programs are installed silently.
    Great work thank you

    do you happen to know the silent switch for VMware 16.1.2 ?

    OFFTEXT    = "Instalare Microsoft Office"
    MSITEXT    = "Instalare pachete MSI"
    ACTTEXT    = "Activare produse"
    UPDTEXT    = "Instalare actualizări"
    SILTEXT    = "Instalare aplicații"
    TWKTEXT    = "Aplicare setări personale"

    How are you guys ... I have a question, is it possible for ESD support to work in Windows 7 boot 7 Without Using POWIS? Well, I would like to make the boot 7 only have the ESD support but it does not have "Autounatteded" or "Drivers Packs" functions, etc. but there is only the full ESD support in boot 7 without unattended functions or RunOnceEx only the boot7 and its ESD support ... Is it possible? :)

    @TesterMachineOS I think it can be easily done soon. I will try it today, as I added many options to disable features. Now some small changes are needed. I will let you know when I'm done with it.

    @ianymaty Thanks for translation, added in v 1.0.2

    Ok, thanks friend ... another thing that I have to mention that in powis in windows and its boot 7 for esd has a small problem that in some computers it sends an error of "OSImage / No Reboot"

    in my opinion it may be that you cannot find or locate the file "install.esd"

    It's caused by too less RAM if it works on another machine or missing USB / MassStorage drivers

    Integrate USB / MassStorage drivers. If you want I can upload some packs for integration created from DriverPacks for Windows 7

    POWIS updated to v1.0.3!

    Documentation and first post will be updated with detailed instructions for Themes, Wallpapers and Activation plugins folders later

    Code:
    15.07.2021 - v1.0.3 - Added RunOnceEx Swedish (sv-SE) translation
                        - Added Activation plugin folder and moved Activate.cmd inside
                        - Improved setup.cmd for more customizable builds

    How to create POWIS with Windows 11 Home with forced offline account?

    Simply add DisableNetworkAdapter.cmd into plugins\setup
    Code:
    @echo off
    title Windows 11 Offline account solution
    cls
    REM Disable network adapter before entering OOBE
    wmic path win32_networkadapter where "physicaladapter=true" call disable
    REM Enable network adapter after OOBE
    REG ADD "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce" /v "OfflineAccount" /d "%WINDIR%\System32\cmd.exe /min /c \"wmic path win32_networkadapter where \"physicaladapter=true\" call enable\"" /f
    goto :EOF
    
    This trick disable network adapter during RunOnceEx setup phase. Then is your PC rebooted into OOBE and you are offline. After you finish OOBE, network adapter is activated again automatically
