Win10XPE - Build Your Own Rescue Media [2]

Mega,
you can save as a Reg File - then under Registry in additions

Code:

RegImportFile,RegFileToImport

RegImportFile,MyExplorerDetail.reg

I must be doing something wrong as I can't set Explorer default view to Details

In posting #5 in this thread a list of updated scripts is shown.
Lets take two example: Process Explorer or FullEventLog are NOT included in newest Win10XPE project by default
Where can I find the initial scripts for them?

see post #902 for pic of where to go. the bulk of the scripts are in the MoPlugins_AddOn_Package accessed from the Utilities\AOD_MegaCmd_XPE scriptfile.
check it's tickbox, and any of the others you require and hit the red download button near the bottom of the script interface.
the AddOn package alone adds approx 200 app scripts, into a MoPlugins dir structure, which takes priority over the MyPlugins scripts if any are duplicated.

**some of the scripts shown on post #5 also require you to add an updated 'Program Version' number before you hit the U button

Mega, you can verify if the registry is being written correctly 0 with those values... (Not sure of the actually values but assumed)

or try and add registry as this

Code:

RegWrite,HKLM,0x0,"Tmp_Default\SOFTWARE\Classes\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\Bags\2\Shell\{5C4F28B5-F869-4E84-8E60-F11DB97C5CC7}"
RegWrite,HKLM,0x0,"Tmp_Default\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\Bags\2\Shell\{5C4F28B5-F869-4E84-8E60-F11DB97C5CC7}"
RegWrite,HKLM,0x0,Tmp_Default\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Streams\Defaults

rather then RegImportFile

I found it. Very interesting. Thank you.

Some related questions:

You wrote "Utilities\AOD_MegaCmd_XPE". I guess its a typo and you mean "Utilities\OAD_MegaCmd_XPE" since the entry is labelled "Mega Optional Application Download".

Ok, I went to one of the newly inserted Plugins (e.g. Macrorit Disk Scanner). the version in the Plugin header says current version is v4.3.5. When I click on "U" its updated to v5.1.1.0. I updated it because I know that there is a newer version.
But what if I don't know if a newer version for a Plugin available?

Is there a function "Check for new Plugin Script versions and auto-update them all if available"?

Or do users really need to click the "U" button in each used plugin before each generation on suspicion?

No it wasn't a typo - I think looking in the Utilities folder would have verified the name for you.

That's the whole point of the info in posts #2 #4 and #5 to let the user know when there are new scripts/app versions.
If you were to autoupdate, when new files are introduced or have filename changes within the applications, the scripts will error out, and it really is of minimal effort to check the entries on post #5, of the ones your interested in. A lot less effort, I may add than keeping those posts updated and checking that each one still works within the project,


an example is the latest AOMEI BackUpper 7.0 app. - appears to update Ok from the existing script, but has a number of file changes that stop it working correctly in PE, so it's easier to submit new scripts

Kyhi,
Thanks for all.
I'm not able to change the Explorer default view to Details.
I give up.
Maybe someone will make an option on next release.
You, @APT38 and @ChrisR gave me a wonderful tool and I'm grateful.

REGI --16 @HKLM\software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Streams\Desktop\\Default Toolbars=11 00 00 00 00 00 00 00

or

Code:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Streams\Desktop]
"Default Toolbars"=hex:11,00,00,00,00,00,00,00

Thanks SIW2
Tried both without success. I must be doing something wrong.

I have that setting on windows 10 - but that value does not change when changing View....
Even tried RegShot and it did not capture any changes in registry...
