Just a notice, when trying to start nmap with WinPcap i got the error message that NPPTools.dll is missing.

I searched and found that same problem occured in the past with nLite:

It's not a big problem, but which component does NPPTools.dll belong to??? I can't find any network related component which seems logical for NPPTools.dll. Or maybe this is a nonintentional removal (bug)???

I don't see that file in Vista.
Either see if Application Experience removal caused that (it has compatibility stuff in it) or simply that program is expecting XP dll...ask them about the error.

Possibly Collaboration. I found that broke some netsh functionality but it's fixed now.

Edit: oops, didn't see your post there nuhi. I just searched for that file in the original wim and it ain't there...

Yup, you are right. NPPTools.dll is part of the Network Monitor and it has been removed from Vista. It can be downloaded separately from:

Sorry about the possible confusion.

Problem solved you can close the topic.
