    I'm getting the same problem as chickpea1 - have checked the images provided in post #1875, were not being noobs, there isn't a secondary link that we are missing.
    Original link has been suspended due to too much traffic, next two links give same issue as reported by chickpea1, tried two different computers to check it's not my pc blocking a download.

    Any other suggestions or a chance of a mirror?

    Excellent work. If when you compile $oem$-Assessment-Tool you have the option to make an x64 version, could you possibly release that? Its a very handy tool for polling info in a WinPE if the system has no OS. With todays PCs, i find myself inside an x64 pe more and more each day.

    This is just Brilliant!

    Thank You for your passion!

    BTW- wondering if anyone tested this latest version with a Volume ei.cfg?

    Also, is it possible to set a default theme of my own or on a retail system?

    There is no real need for a 64 bit version of the tool for it uses wmic to get info about motherboard and uses a reg query to get info of OS. If oem key for win 8.x is found it outputs to txt file in order for cmd script to run and apply the key that is found in bios. It is compliled with autoit to make into one nice lil exe file.

    Whether it is vol or retail the branding is still done reguardless if it is oem activated or not. If you wish to force a theme you wish to install then use the Force_Theme_[readme].txt file.

    Yes I understand the system quarry. Good to know the branding will not interfere with volume. Still, the latest files have no mention of Force Theme like the previous versions, the file hash is a match.

    Update....lol I had un-archived and saved the files with Linux changing the file permissions somehow. Windows didn't see/copy all of the files from the server.

    The instructions has always been in the Force_Theme_[readme].txt file since I can remember. Its even mentioned in the IMPORTANT - Read Me.txt file.

    "6. optionally, use 'Force_Theme_[readme].txt' to apply specific theme."

    Think that is why it says readme. lol
