Yes, I didn't make it once in Win7. I'm working on it. EDIT:Interestingly, vlkey is not used during virtual machine deployment and is recognized as pkeypro. Enter it manually during the OOBE phase .Is the windows version not recognized correctly? VL or vl must be included in the ISO naming?
Yes thats only way how to detect Volume License. I testem it with original ISO naming and custom too. Script looks for VL or vl in filename What do you mean? VHD mouting is done using diskpart. I tried to extract VHD instead of mouting and building was success. I will review it on XP host too to, maybe it can be done too with some modifications too
Oh,I see. Monting VHD is failed.

There must be something done on 7 to be able successfully mount VHD using diskpart. I can try today extracting VHD method on more systems to confirm it works good XP / 7 / 10 too, but it should work and it can be easily switched. It only turns into more free space requirements
Virtual machine log EDIT:AutoSysprep.cmd after sets the pauses. Everything is going well. @George King What happened? Is the error caused by the virtual disk being interrupted? The new code, which I set up like this, just adds a lot of pause .
Please wait few hours, I need to finish real job until testing. I updated my script to VHD extracting I was successfull on Windows 7, result should be same on 10 or XP EDIT: Testing on 10 now EDIT2: Works perfect too
Tool updated to v1.5.4 Now it must work on Windows 7 and newer without problem! Seems like v1.5.x branches are stability and bug fixes a lot Code: 14.04.2021 - v1.5.4 - Changed VHD mounting to extracting, now can XP2ESD work without problems on Windows 7 and newer @jiafei2427 @exe csrss Please let me know how it goes on your side now All feedback is welcome! P.S. Goal for next is ability to build it on XP too
Exactly yes, and from instructions I write in first post. You can find info about this settings too. Code: Prepare everything to build 1) Open config.ini and edit settings for your own, like ISO names, VirtualBox installation path, Mount VHD Letter and target format. Don't change VirtualBox RAM or HDD Label! OPTIONAL INFO Recommended steps for image prepare if want to build it on your own 4) Before finishing set C:\ label to WXPSysprep - see config.ini for more details Config.ini ; Don't forget when preparing image in VirtualMachine to set C:\ label that match HDDLabel here, if not Capture.cmd won't work - This setting is here also for VirtualBox HDDLabel=WXPSysprep Have you used Sysprep from Auto-Sysprep folder before shutting down your system in VirtualBox? If not, your image will never work on any HW..
[3]Upgrading setup engine Tip 11 temporary directories are not empty. The following are normal. Successful establishment of esd and iso. Due to my error, I closed the cmd window again. So there's no report. I will continue to test.
Be sure to reboot before testing and be on Administrator account and keep all WIMs unmounted. They can remain mounted if you canceled builder in bad moment. And for sure clean %TEMP% folder before starting again after this command Code: dism /cleanup-wim On my side it works good on fresh install with integrated all updates until 03-2021 (I'm building 04-2021 images right now, but I think there should be really same result) in Windows 7 SP1
Good evening everyone! I did a test with the new version (1.5.4), with WIM compression option and everything worked very well! There was no error. I will now do the same, but with ESD compression ... My host system is Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2019 x64
In the test with ESD compression everything went well again, except the exclusion of the folders below after installation. When installing WinXP_AIO_ESD.iso, the "driverspack" and "SYSPREP" folders were not excluded from C: \ (see attached image). In this test I only modified the option "SKIPOOBE=Yes" in Config.ini
Great report I forgot about cleanup code. It must be moved to different setup phase. This is caused as all of cleanup commands are added in OOBE.cmd
