Add Portable Plugins into Win10XPE

Can some one help me to add Portable App using Pstart into Win10XPE project. it's working on project Win10PE SE (but no in Win10XPE project)

At last, I modified the Portable Plugin from WIN10PE SE sucessfully.
Just add demo some apps.
If any one want this i'll shared.

Hi thien154

It's hard to tell what your showing - very blurry to me, but if it's Minitool Power Data Recovery, there is already a proper xpeplugin for it, see link below
http://theoven.org/index.php?topic=2607.0

scroll to Apps - Recovery, bug on name will take you appropriate xpeplugin

thank for your reply.
the important thing is not what is the software. the main point is integrated portable app with pstart as plugin.

PStart

Hi, The one i download dont have this feature.
Can you share with me that project! Big thank

Hi
if you're talking about the xpeplugin try

- Add your custome folder > Add PStart Folder to Program Files
- Run PSart.exe and add portable apps you like
  Setup > Setting > General > unchecked "Show panel on startup"
- exit PStart
- Open Win10XPE.exe > Build Core > Edit Pecmd.ini
- Add the following line:
EXEC% ProgramFiles% \ PStart \ PStart.exe
- Save and create ISO
- PStart will run when WinXPE starts

I download the plugin and it worked well. However we can not add software through the menu because when you compile the script will delete the temp folder. it just add default only 1 or two software on the menu of pstart.
so my solution is comment out the script from build core  step. //DirDeleteQ,%GTemp%
Do you have any other good solution for this.

You do not read my instructions carefully.
Add the PStart folder to Program Files with "Add your custome folder" then run PStart.exe on your Windows and configure it as you like.
So after creating the ISO, PStart will run with your configuration, not create a new PStart as when running the script.

I want to have all customed portable apps on pstart before compile.
so when create the iso we dont need to add the portable software from here. (all portable app are including with compiling it is true with version Win10PESE (305.88 MB))

I pay attention that when run pstart step PStart.xml will remove as default. all our setting are gone.

I understand the way you make pstart working. but it is not pstart plugin.

Yes, it is not Pstart plugin. I run PStart plugin but the result is only PStart. So I don't use PStart plugin.
If you want to use the PStart plugin which includes portables applications then this is not the way you need it but I find this to be easier.

I have a super simple way to add portable apps to %SendTo% via batch.
And your favorite PortableApps will always be in the Right-Click\SendTo


Go you portableapps\7-zip\
Make a shortcut of same name minus the .exe, (i.e.) 7zFM.link  NOT 7zFM.exe.link
If you are booting to a PE, most of them have the %SendTo% variable.

"This batch should be in the \PortableApps\ Directory. I named mine SendTo.cmd
Set PappDir=%~dp0
If exist "%PappDir%\7-Zip\7zFM.lnk" (copy "%PappDir%\7-Zip\7zFM.lnk" %SendTo%\) ELSE (Echo 7zFM.lnk not found)
If no %SendTo% variable, use something like this:
If exist "%PappDir%\7-Zip\7zFM.lnk" (copy "%PappDir%\7-Zip\7zFM.lnk" "%APPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo") ELSE (Echo 7zFM.lnk not found)

Alternative Method for All shortcuts at once:
Navigate to PortableApps\ and create a Folder named _Shortcuts
Make shortcuts like above example and then move them all into the _Shortcuts folder.
Then use:
xcopy %pappdir%_Shortcuts\* %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo /Y
OR
xcopy %pappdir%_Shortcuts\*  %SendTo%\

the good solution. this way we dont need pstart as plugin but run directly in custom folders.

- Add your custome folder > Add PStart Folder to Program Files
- Run PSart.exe and add portable apps you like
  Setup > Setting > General > unchecked "Show panel on startup"
- exit PStart
- Open Win10XPE.exe > Build Core > Edit Pecmd.ini
- Add the following line:
EXEC% ProgramFiles% \ PStart \ PStart.exe
- Save and create ISO
- PStart will run when WinXPE starts

mark as good solution

To Run Pstart upon system start



Pstart uses a .xml file with the settings - you have to include (Attachment - Encoded .xml) a your custom settings or folder search location..
Or edit pecmd.ini to include shortcut link to your portable apps..

PEnetwork manager not recognize network adapter (boot from VMware). our network card drivers are Broadcom. I already includes drivers but it is not working.
Any one have experience about this issued?
