Win10XPE_2019-01-22 update Problem.

Build was successful(with win7 x86 korean) but there is 32 warnings in log tab.

when I boot with Win10XPE_2019-01-22,
"Hold escape key to disable startisback from loading" message is displayed for a second that I didn't see before.

and Pin to taskbar and Pin to startmenu is not working.
but after I run explorer.exe, penetwork and cmd.exe it is automatically pin to startmenu(but not taskar). but firefox.exe is not the case.
(my pecmd.ini in boot.wim.
[PINTOOL]
StartMenu2=$Start_Menu\Programs\Network\Mozilla Firefox.lnk||||||||
StartMenu1=$Start_Menu\Programs\Network\PENetwork.lnk||||||||
StartMenu0=%WinDir%\Explorer.exe||||||||
TaskBar0=%SystemRoot%\System32\cmd.exe||||||||
TaskBar9=%SystemRoot%\Explorer.exe||||||||)

Please check out attached screenshot and debug log.

would expect to see - Reg OverWrite Warnings

*******************

"Hold escape key to disable startisback from loading" message is displayed for a second that I didn't see before.

That's confirmed (maybe suppressed before)

***********************

Verify Pintool.exe present in PE > \Windows\System32\PinTool.exe
as sometimes removed from project folder by AV software

I also reproduced, you must delete "windows.immersiveshell.serviceprovider.dll" in Target folder and then Re-Create boot.wim & ISO
I have to write it in the sources, I've already been fooled with this dll, visible in my traces

In \Features\Explorer_AddFiles.txt replace:

Code: [Select]

\Windows\System32\windows.immersiveshell.serviceprovider.dll
\Windows\System32\??-??\windows.immersiveshell.serviceprovider.dll.mui

==>

Code: [Select]

; Do not use, it causes a problem at startup with Pintool
;\Windows\System32\windows.immersiveshell.serviceprovider.dll
;\Windows\System32\??-??\windows.immersiveshell.serviceprovider.dll.mui

I will have to make a new update by also adding James' corrections

Win10XPE_2019-01-23 update

Fix a problem at Startup due to windows.immersiveshell.serviceprovider.

Hallo,
on the Desktop appear the Google Chrom - Icon. (see Attach)
How do i get this removed? 

Hi RFausH

You would normally navigate to that plugin before build and uncheck the desktop shortcut button

Yes, I have done that before.

Even if I disable Google Chrome, the icon will appear on the desktop.

Google Creates the Desktop Icon when program runs - pointing to Googles Default Location ...
It is what it is... Although steps where taken to remove it.. It is created by program startup...

Even if I disable Google Chrome, the icon will appear on the desktop.

If you disable Google Plugin - NO Icon should appear...

on the Desktop appear the Google Chrom - Icon. (see Attach)

Try adding this in \Target\Windows\System32\autorun.cmd + Recreate boot.wim and ISO

Code: [Select]

:: Remove Google Chrome.lnk for Administrator account
If Exist "%SystemDrive%\Users\Administrator\Desktop\Google Chrome.lnk" Attrib -S -H "%SystemDrive%\Users\Administrator\Desktop\Google Chrome.lnk" & del /q /f "%SystemDrive%\Users\Administrator\Desktop\Google Chrome.lnk" & del /q /f /A:R /A:H /A:S /A:A "%SystemDrive%\Users\Administrator\Desktop\Google Chrome.lnk"
If Exist "%SystemDrive%\Users\Administrator\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Google Chrome.lnk" Attrib -S -H "%SystemDrive%\Users\Administrator\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Google Chrome.lnk" & del /q /f "%SystemDrive%\Users\Administrator\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Google Chrome.lnk" & del /q /f /A:R /A:H /A:S /A:A "%SystemDrive%\Users\Administrator\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Google Chrome.lnk"

Or try replacing the  Admin.Script in Projects\Win10XPE\Features folder and Rebuild
 Admin.Script (106.87 kB - downloaded 52 times.)

Let us know if it works 

Win10XPE_2019-01-23 update  minor change, no change in the dated package

Switch to Admin: Remove the auto created "Google Chrome.lnk" for the Administrator account added in autorun.cmd

It works now.

Thanks ChrisR, James!!!

Thanks, it's perfect 

I am a newbie to this site and projects therein having first visited this site the first week of January 2019. Still I am somewhat familiar with PE builds having used Bart's PE long ago and Gandalph's PE more recently. Also, I am learning quite a bit from the discussions in this forum. 

Anyway, I downloaded and used the WinXPE project of Jan 8, 2019 and the MoPlugins add-on of Jan 9, 2019 to successfully build a WinXPE flash drive.  I find WinXPE to be a great project and to work really well.  My sincere thanks to all who make this magic happen.

Since that first build, I have added my own license keys to several add-on, made changes to apps regarding their inclusion or not in the build and whether desktop icons should show, and I made changes to the pecmd.ini to handle the display of some shortcuts and the copying of extra files specific to an app. I may have made other changes I don't now remember.  Surprisingly and happily, each iteration I burn to my flash drive works very well.

My question is what are the steps for updating to the new Jan 23, 2019 WinXPE project or any future project build without losing or overwriting the changes I have already made and know to work?

What I Do is rename old Win10XPE folder to Win10XPE-1

Then extract New Release of Win10XPE

Then I copy the "Custom" - "ProgCache" - "Projects/MoPlugins" Folders from Old to New Win10XPE Directory

You would still need to set your "Core Options" and then maybe Enable/Disable a few choice Project Plugins

If you customize a Project Release Plugin - Move The Customized Plugin From "MyPlugins" to "MoPlugins"

By doing so - release plugins with the same name - will be hidden from tree - "MoPlugins" takes priority over "MyPlugins"
