    Hi all,

    could someone be kind enough to post a link to a thread explaining how to add DAZ loader to a Win7 AIO so it activates during the install.

    I've created the AIO, i just need to know how to add the loader.

    Thanks in advance,

    Its in the readme ;)

    Code:
    SetupComplete.cmd Example:
    
    
    @ECHO OFF
    %~dp0"Windows Loader.exe" /silent /preactivate
    cd %~dp0
    attrib -R -A -S -H *.*
    SHUTDOWN /R /T 5
    RMDIR /S /Q "%WINDIR%\Setup\Scripts"
    exit

    What if its pre-activated because it detected OEM, would it skip it?

    I basically have a windows 7 64bit that has all the OEM, and if it detects it's oem it will pre-activate but if it doesn't detect it id like it to do a silent activate with daz loader

    If your computer has a SLIC 2.1 oem table, it will skip the loader via the setupcomplete.cmd script as long as the OEM folder os properly set up with the right certs and serials

    The loader itself can do the same thing without the need for extras, unless you want to add OEM info too.

    If a SLIC is found and the certificate and serial that's been installed has activated the system then the loader installation is skipped. However, if no SLIC is found or theres no matching certificate for your systems existing SLIC then the loaders installed.


    EDIT:
    If you plan on distributing the ISO then you may want to wait for 2.1.8 which I might release this weekend, as it should address some issues with UEFI where the loader would hang the installation of Windows.

    Sweet, ill wait till this weekend to build my new ISO. Making an Windows 7 SP1 AIO with OEM, LAN/WIFI Drivers & Updates included with about 5 tools I use to optimize a pc as silent installers. This will be sick thanks to DAZ and everyone else who has provided me the tools. It will save me so much time when I am fixing a computer

    HI! Total noob, here, sorry!

    I used WinAIO maker to combine w7 32 and 64 iso's and I have Windows Loader 2.2.2 in a folder.
    I have read the readme and I have no idea what to do in order to get WL2.2.2 to preactivate my AIO install.

    I see readme notes about setupcomplete.cmd, but I don't know where to put that or how to make it run. I can't even figure it out from looking at my old preactivated AIO that a friend gave me years ago or from googling...

    Thank you DAZ, btw!
    And thank you to the kind soul who helps this idiot find the solution, too

    Put the setupcomplete.cmd with the loader inside the "ISO:\Sources\$OEM$\$$\Setup\Scripts" folder.

    That location does not exist in my iso. Should I create it?
    And then copy the exe there, too? In my old AIO installer the loader was in a folder in the root of the drive which also had no oem folder.

    I am soo sorry for not understanding.
