Building a boot USB, DVD or CD based on Windows 7 with WinBuilder and Win7PE SE Tutorial, writes by irongeek. Here in pdf


Win7PE SE - PreRequests Notice (*)
Feel free to ask questions and/or support at current topic.


Win7PE SE project is based on PE environment and will use a Windows7 SP0 or SP1, Architecture x86 or x64 DVD.
It is better (recommended) to have the DVD copied in a folder on your hard drive.

Win7PE SE comes as a base with only a minimal of applications. Take pleasure to personalize it and to add your script and applications.

Additional Packages:
Realtek High Definition Audio Driver x86/x64 (Extract to ...\Projects\Win7PESE\Drivers\ folder)

You can use the drivers from Driverpacks.net (check Win7PESE->Drivers->Driver Integration & Driver Package Installer)


History:
Yahoouk first project 'Win7PE' continued with improvments to 'Multi7PE'. Sadly Yahoouk had to leave (lack of free time)...
JFX continue Yahoouk's work with great enhancements and made 'Multi7PE SE' project, Sadly JFX forced to abondon his great project...
(besides JFX continued help on numerous critical PE3 building cases, which we are hoping to see him around here on MSFN )

A big thanks to the precursors Yahoouk's and JFX's great work to build this simple and healthy base who given many ideas and inspiration to others.

I continue JFX's 'Multi7PE SE' project, to 'Win7PE SE'

And Many people support these Heros on their developments.

Thank you very much to all who help to make live this project and to make it better.

Happy Testing & Using, I hope you like .

Thank you for this marvelous project ChrisR

[Tripredacus]

Your initial description is misleading. This is NOT a PE download but a building tool that contains Winbuilder, among other things.

Those "other" things is why I removed the download link in your post. This download contains portions of the WAIK without the entire WAIK. The license terms of the WAIK fall under the same terms as the operating system it is based off of. So in this case, applications such as PEIMG.EXE (deprecated btw), imagex.exe, etc are not to be redistributed. If you repost a link of a new download without MS OS/WAIK files, it can be permitted.

[Kullenen_Ask]

i love this man moderation do not like strict rules but at least he is neutral. i think this topic should be pinned so get along well with moderator rules kills internets freedom.

It is nice to see this option/build in here. Wellcome. Ludovici has nice scripts but need to be optimized. I guess you are keep in touch with him.

Maybe i should try it sometime. Do not know anything about it's latest condition.

This part of the forum isn't busy enough to pin something. Usually pin to keep on page 1. We'll see how it goes.

Welcome ChrisR

hi,

thank you Ludo, I did not know where to find it
No need to explain why the 3 or 4 files from waik 1.1 Vista (speeeed)

Win7Pe_Se has the function of building Out of the Box
It will have soon the function Out of the Waik. lol

[Lancelot_Real]

Hi Tripredacus,

maybe not function out of box anymore (really bad for end users easy start ),
I believe, without any *bad boys in package, pre-requesting minimum 3 files (max 6) is good enough for msfn end users , coming verrry soon
aside this, I hope you like Win7PESE so far.

let's see how it goes.....

[Kullenen_Ask]

i built. it builds enough fast. souce english enterprise x86 used. keyboard control panel not works. regional settings control panel not works too. so i have to write from english keyboard now. selected bitlocker script but it not works too. there are some double control panel icons. double entries can be removed by

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ControlPanel\NameSpace]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Control Panel\don't load]

internet explorer not works good enough. i try to use "regsvr32 ieproxy.dll" but need to run it from x:\windows\system32. i think path variable not contains x:\windows\system32. copy past to internet explorer and it's menus not works.i see no network center. why dera`s network center script not included? change desktop wallpaper not works. it finds the program `run` should find pictures. mouse internet option control panel also not works. maybe i made a mistake somewhere but it said complated successfully. theese should be working.devıce manager mmc not any of them works. i clicked on "disable script and reset to default" once at cdrom script before build can be because of that?

Welcome Chris

Thank you for keeping that project alive

[ChrisR]

@Kullenen_Ask
Thanks for your feedback.

there are Certainly adjustments and additions to do in the future. This is indeed the sense of the project.
But I think it is very sufficient already and many are very happy with him..

On the points you noted :
keyboard control panel works for me and i can change between english to french, but we must close and reopen the current application (run, notepad).
For Bitlocker, I have not test it, I trusted the people who tested it (bitlocker need ultimate or enterprise edition). There is a button on the script explaining how it works in PE.
ieproxy.dll is in folder X:\Program Files\Internet Explorer and "regsvr32 X:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\ieproxy.dll" works
I do not understand for the copy paste in IE, it works well for me.
Yes, dera`s network center script may be included but all not work as expected (Wireless), there is PENetwork which work very well. But, yes, it's a good script. , maybe, in next update.
The mouse internet option control panel works for me and i can change between right and left click or speed.
Yes, change pictures with the control panel don't work actually, you can change it with the right click in explorer on a picture. I don't see much the utility in a rescue environment as we can choose his own wallpaper before Building.
I did not understand the last points, my little english !

Regards
Chris

Welcome Chris

Happy to see you here JFX .
All work was done with the very good foundation that you had done.

[ChrisR]

with your agreement Tripredacus,

I posted the update of WIn7PE_SE without the WAIK files, see post 1.

[Lancelot_Real]

@Kullenen_Ask

using enu source, changing keyboard to turkish after build also works fine here, along with no double control panel icons,
using 7600_16385_090713_1255 here
http://img228.images...10211201239.png

besides you can mostly* (popularly with enu) use "System Locale" option on Main Configuration to get tr work with none-tr source

well, I test also with turkish source most of the time ( x15-65965 ) which works fine here too.

Just to clear: Goal is getting a nice & fast & furious PE3 build along with available options, not a build of "everything of w7", but increasing options will hopefully open this road step by step for the users who has such goals.

BESIDES
I know there are *****rarely****** differences between different source cd about location of files, mostly case is: files that are expected to be in in
%InstallSRC%\Windows\System32\
sometimes found in a subfolder of
%InstallSRC%\Windows\winsxs\...........
this happens due to different sources or different languaged sources......... (not fully figured out..., maybe about imageindex.....)
some examples I know: BdeHdCfgLib.dll peerdist.dll cscui.dll
as long as they are reported clearly, support also added to scripts

[Lancelot_Real]

JFX

VERY happy to see you around

You did the very GOOD foundation to anyone who have the roof in mind to build a house
yep I know structure based on is not as good as your great work but with your foundations and with available future structure.... until that day ..

[Kullenen_Ask]

here log file. i only selected source selected my desired scripts and run as a normal user should make. I do not understand ever why winbuilder gives different results to different users. did not check log file because build did not interrupt.

[ludo]

No problem visibly in your log

can this warnings result so many feature loss?

No, just registry key changed

Me also i have some double control panel icons in Simple Icon / Double Icon and not in categorie

No problem for me with Internet Explorer

[BlueLife]

Thank @ChrisR

[Tripredacus]

I have added this topic to the Stickied Win PE FAQ.

[JFX]

As foreseen with activated firewall, fire sharing no longer works.

shortcuts.exe - Created by Joshua, updated by rpaz hmm really

Since i do not decompile others scripts, what was changed in this new version?
