I was just test a little reg file to see if it worked before I made the cd and it's not doing anything

the is the reg file.
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

;Disable "Search Dog"
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CabinetState]
"Use Search Asst"="no


and the is the xml stuff
<execute display='Applying other reg tweak...' program='regedit' arguments='/s "%SYSTEMDRIVE%\PostInstall\other.reg"' />


I have it setup up like so

C:\Xplode stuff
C:\PostInstall

and I've also tried putt the xplode stuff inside the PostInstall folder too.

If you're using 1.0.3 then it's a problem with the execute plugin.
Run it with logging and you'll get errors. Paste them here so I can confirm that it's the same problem.

In the meantime, use the plugin from 1.0.2.

that would be why Wraith said create a log and post it. That why he could tell if it was the same bug as already reported.

It appears it is, because of your last sentence, but still a log might help.

Hope this is good, cause i really didn't see the point in pasting the whole thing seeing how the reg stuff is my only problem

geeeeze....

"before trying 1.04".....oiy.....
to get to 1.04 you would have to read the post? Unless you're one of those people that just read the first two lines of a topic, and then stop without reading further.
