Yes, it's better to use sku: "Pro" for Windows 8 Pro or sku: "Pro Edition".

Windows 8 editions

Quote

Windows 8 Pro succeeds Windows 7 Professional and Ultimate and is targeted towards enthusiasts and business users; it includes all the features of Windows 8.

Got them for next release, thanks guys.

[myselfidem]

After testing Windows 8 Enterprise (eval) on Oracle VM VirtualBox the sku is 72:

wmi.js

case 72:
              OSSKU="Enterprise Edition";
              break;

I think the "normal" Enterprise edition DOES NOT match this ID. The ID 72 is "Enterprise Evaluation", as this is what it says in my VMBox, too.

Hey guys?

function getIEver() 
{ 
        position="wmi.js"; 
        whatfunc="getIEver()"; 
 
        IEver=WshShell.RegRead("HKLM\\Software\\Microsoft\\Internet Explorer\\svcVersion"); 
 
        if (IEver.substr(1,1) == ".") 
        { 
                IEver=IEver.substr(0,3); 
        } 
        else 
        { 
                IEver=IEver.substr(0,4); 
        } 
 
        return IEver; 
}

This doesn't work... IE 8 (possibly 7 and lower do not have the "svcVersion" key.

function getIEver() 
{ 
        position="wmi.js"; 
        whatfunc="getIEver()"; 
 
        IEver=WshShell.RegRead("HKLM\\Software\\Microsoft\\Internet Explorer\\Version"); 
 
        if (IEver.substr(1,1) == ".") 
        { 
                IEver=IEver.substr(0,3); 
        } 
        else 
        { 
                IEver=IEver.substr(0,4); 
        } 
 
        return IEver; 
}

Try this ^

Yes, like I said the problem is the following:
With IE 10 under Windows 8, the "Version" says "9.10", but "svcVersion" says "10.0". I do not know how this will be when installing IE 10 on Win7 or Vista.
Please test this:

function getIEver()
{
	position="wmi.js";
	whatfunc="getIEver()";

	IEver=WshShell.RegRead("HKLM\\Software\\Microsoft\\Internet Explorer\\Version");

	if (IEver.substr(0,4) == "9.10")
	{
		IEver=WshShell.RegRead("HKLM\\Software\\Microsoft\\Internet Explorer\\svcVersion").substr(0,4);
	}
	else
	{
		if (IEver.substr(1,1) == ".")
		{
			IEver=IEver.substr(0,3);
		}
		else
		{
			IEver=IEver.substr(0,4);
		}
	}

	return IEver;
}

This should now check if IE version is 9.10, which it is on my Win8 system. If yes, it uses the svcVersion instead.
If not, it checks if the version is "x.x" or "xx.x" to cut it down properly. (If the version value is later on modified by MS, perhaps they just forgot it. ^^)

Yes, you are right this key doens't exist for IE8 and lower Internet Explorer version.

However, testing the suggestion given by Dynaletik, works for me to detect IE8=8.0 or IE9=9.0

I can't test with IE10 now.

Thanks and regards

Thats pretty much what I was thinking too. Works fine now.

Thanks for the new manual. However could you change or remove inside Chapter-6.html (line 322)

Note: This cannot be checked by WMI, so it is based on whether or not a battery exists and a PCMCIAController exists. Not perfect by any means

[myselfidem]

Here is the new french manual with Chapter-9.html updated for WPI update 8.6.2 (ChangeLog),

And adding also Chapter-6.html (line 93):

First post updated.

[Dynaletik]

Hey guys,

i just spent some time for updating WPI for Windows 8 on my system.

I attached some InstallBG Images + ProgressBar, current version of Dyna theme and german localized files.
Perhaps someone wants to use or improve it.

Cheers!

About Windows 8 Editions, I think the OSSKU's numbers discusssed here:

http://www.msfn.org/...ost__p__1011481

Are now: thanks to check if it's OK!

Inside wmi.js (function getOSsku(sku)) the lines below:

   case 27:
   OSSKU="Enterprise N Edition";
   break;

   case 48:
   OSSKU="Pro Edition";
   break;

   case 49:
   OSSKU="Professional N Edition";
   break;

   case 72:
   OSSKU="Enterprise Evaluation Edition";
   break;

   case 98:
   OSSKU="8 N Edition";
   break;

   case 99:
   OSSKU="8 China Edition";
   break;

   case 100:
   OSSKU="8 Single Language Edition";
   break;

   case 101:
   OSSKU="8 Core Edition";
   break; 

   case 103:
   OSSKU="Professional Edition with Media Center";
   break;
               
 }

 return OSSKU;
}

And inside wmi.js [function getOSver()]

Change:

if (Caption.indexOf("Windows 8") != -1) 

To:

if (Caption.indexOf("8") != -1) 

Regards

*Edit: could you remove on the "Windows Post-Install Wizard Main Thread...." (inside Conditions; post 4):

Note: This cannot be checked by WMI, so it is based on whether or not a battery exists and a PCMCIAController exists. Not perfect by any means.

And maybe add: Returns: Laptop, Notebook or Desktop.
