If you use v1.4.4, and then after run it again with /h command it will restore all values (Visibility) to default.

Hi legolash,

The old tweak.exe used the exit code -532459699 to define the error "registry file not found" when the path was inexistent or incorrect. Could make something similar on your version? For instance if the program finished successfully return errorlevel 0 if registry file not found then return errorlevel 1 etc.
I use it in my batch and it would really be useful for me.

Done, it will return error code -532459699

This issue was caused because PackagePending subkey could not be found, in v1.4.4 it will just skip this and continue if not found.

I tried to remove packages from my syspreped image, so it must have something to do with that. But I didn't remove anything there so I see no reason why should it not work.

You can try the new version 1.4.6 available and bug solved.

I think files are left behind until you rebuild the wim

imagex /compress maximum /export <path_to_folder>\install.wim * <new_existing_path>\install.wim /check

@ricktendo64

I tried it Online inside a VM

install_wim_tweak.exe /o /c Microsoft-Hyper-V  /r

the package was removed, but the VM addition drivers are still in the WinSxS folder. I also tried it with the message queuing client and the files are also in the WinSxs folder.

@myselfidem

it is the same with 1.4.6

I tried OffLine with an mounted image with install_wim_tweak.exe 1.4.6 and even if the Packages are removed OK there is always the cat and mum files inside:

Mounted_Folder\Windows\servicing\

But I must use with quotes like this:

@Legolash

If I use install_wim_tweak.exe /o to takewoner ship on my computer... How I can restore the default permissions?

Now I can't remove WAIK 3.0 for windows 7!!! :wacko:

It used pkgmgr to remove the packages, it's that program that decides to leave the .mum/.cat files in there.

It automatically restores default permissions after its made the packages visible. Your problem may be because the 'Owners' key might have been deleted, there is a switch that prevents that but i cant remember what it is.
