Here are some of my ideas.
  • Notepad removal
  • List of languages to be added to Language Bar
    CODE
    [RegionalSettings]
    Language=... <-Remove
    InputLocale=xxxx:xxxx,xxxx:xxxx,xxxx:xxxx,...
  • Windows Explorer->Tools->Folder Options...->View->Managing pairs of Web pages and folders
    CODE
    [HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer]
    "NoFileFolderConnection"=dword:0000000x
  • Custom Regional Settings
    CODE
    [HKCU\Control Panel\International]
    "iDate"=...
    "iMeasure"=...
    "iTime"=...
    "iTLZero"=...
    "sLongDate"=...
    "sShortDate"=...
    "sTimeFormat"=...
    "iTimePrefix"=...
    [HKCU\Control Panel\International\Geo]
    "Nation"=...
    ...
  • Change locations of system folders (like "My Documents")
  • Show/hide toolbars on Taskbar
  • Removing obsolete files like:
    - AUTOEXEC.BAT, CONFIG.SYS, IO.SYS, MSDOS.SYS
    - Start Menu and Desktop shortcuts and empty Start Menu folders
    - Favourites (including subfolders)
  • Small Icons in Classic Start Menu
    CODE
    [HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced]
    "Start_LargeIcons"=dword:0000000x
  • Auto-hide Taskbar
    CODE
    [HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced]
    "TaskbarSizeMove"=dword:0000000x
    "TaskbarGlomming"=dword:0000000x

I don't use nLites Theme integration feature, but I use theme addons and I want to be able to manually input a CustomDefaultThemeFile that is not integrated using nlite instead of having to edit the WINNT.SIF manually

Thanx nuhi, Hope this makes it into 1.4 newwink.gif

rather a feature to ad theme_whatever.7z from the theme stuf instead of the addon stuf,

Edit (after re-read):
Why do you wish to remove notepad, as a verry basic text editor is quite usefull, - maybe if your looking to a better notepad (more advanced) > LOOK HERE < and scrol to the bottom of the page where it says: "Download Here <-- NOT uninstallable! "

Exactly. I want to install Notepad++ as its replacement. But, the add-on that you referred to doesn't remove Notepad.

remove comonents: / advanced

keep box : (none)
remove box: notepad.exe

Although the remove box will remove notepad.exe, it will not replace it with anything else. Someone long ago turned Notepad2 into a file to replace the original in the Windows XP Source that I currently use. Perhaps a function that will allow a specified stand-alone executable to become the new Notepad?

What else could be added at this point except for possibly further breakdowns of what the current extensions remove, for example, the specific games, codecs, or even files that are removed?

nLite is pretty solid. Perhaps more registry tweaks, more components (if possible), integration of the user hive cleanup service, integration of a driver backup utility to help find the drivers that needs to be included from the current machine, and as a ridiculous request, to patch the system files with Vista resources if system has access to a Vista installation (on another partition, like a dual-boot configuration) or a Vista DVD.

Just thought I would throw that out there.

i use rado354's notepad++ addon alongside T D's notepad++ replacer addon. it does replace the original notepad.exe and it works great

There is option show/hide Docuemnts, Music, Pictures but there is no option hide "Recent Documents".

There is a needed code to hide:

CODE
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced]
"Start_ShowRecentDocs"=dword:00000000

Code to show:

CODE
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced]
"Start_ShowRecentDocs"=dword:00000002

Is there any possibility to integrate HexEdit into nLite from RVM Integrator?
Or did nuhi plan to implement whole syntax?

Best regards

I have no idea if it is even possible rolleyes.gif , but it would be nice to have the option of creating a bootable installation USB pen drive. Modern Mobos can be booted from USB and it is so convenient. whistling.gif

Remove network service: Link-layer topology discovery responder (KB922120).

Best regards

If this can be added.
1. There is option "Password never expire" when select blank password was used.
2. Option for enforce OOBE to run in every PC. Some PC bypass it like Intel Glad, Asus P4GE-MX, Intel GVSR, etc...
3. First icon on desktop (My Computer, My documents).
4. For local language there is option to integrate LIP(setup.msi) that can be download from microsoft.

I would like Windows Server 2003 x86 and x64 support. That's it smile.gif. Also, if possible, printer driver separation.
anonymous_user
nlite already supports Windows Server 2003.

I'll request adding cursors that will be in use immediately, just like you can do with visual styles.

Also in tweaks, I'd like to be able to set thumbnail size.

How about a run-once that will copy i386 from the cd to the hdd and set the appropriate install and souurce path reg keys?

Caching I386 to disk would be nice, they used it extensively in Longhorn builds 4xxx. Specifically, to \WINDOWS\Driver Cache\I386, with NTFS compression enabled.

Smaller Server 2003 SP2 install. Its about 1/3rd biger than an XP install with the same options.
