Hi, bob.omb

>No need whatsoever to boot into system... but every once in a while there is a need for admin. I dont understand why people still use system.. They are only limiting themselves..

I was firstly use "Switch To Admin" for testing this MiniNT trick.
I don't know how many people use Admin account or SYSTEM account. As the "Switch To Admin" is optional, so default people use SYSTEM account.
I just point out that if you do the MiniNT modify, it need "Switch To Admin" plugin's files/registy items(no need admin account),
if people didn't select it, don't apply the patch directly not only check the file exists, otherwise make the Credential Dialog(console one) break.

Admin = Admin+System both possible
System = System possible only

Why not make "Switch To Admin" as checked by default?

I don't use PE for long time, as I saw seem has those limits:
1. IE can't download file in SYSTEM account
2. new version of TeamViewer can't use in SYSTEM account
3. printer?

So to be sure or clarify here - With Default SYSTEM account -
1) NLA works with Credentials Console.
2) Access share folders or mstsc.exe work with Credentials Console

Although, We have had it reported that NLA does not work properly without "switch to Admin" option selected - Thus the requirement message in XPE

So with default SYSTEM account (with NLA reported as not working) the issue is with Credentials Console ????????????

We Could then add the Credentials GUI (Patched .dll) - to "Admin Plugin" for use if "Switch To Admin" selected on Build Core

I think there are just 1 or 2 testers providing feedback of RDP and reports very

Slore, you have the wheel here..

as this reason the message will be require "Swith to Admin" plugin, not Administrator account(tested with Win10XPE_2018-12-15 + the new RDP.script).

works in
WimBuilderUI_WIN10XPE +
Reply #29 on: December 22, 2018, 09:40:21 AM » RemoteDesktop\main.bat

but fail with "The NLA error, please contect to your Administrator" Message in
Win10XPE_2018-12-15 + the new RDP.script.

the files are same, but in my main.bat there is not IF for "NLA" checkbox, maybe remove the IF(registry modifition section) in RDP.script, you can reproduce this.

2) Access share folders or mstsc.exe work with Credentials Console

This(Access share folders) works always since the console mode appear(even WIN10XPE first release), I use this way transfer files between WIN10 host and PE for long time.
mstsc.exe just tested yesterday with Win10XPE_2018-12-15 + the new RDP.script(without "Swith To Admin") or WimBuilderUI_WIN10XPE + RemoteDesktop\main.bat in the topic.

Not has to.
If you enable the "Switch To Admin" plugin, the Credential GUI(no MiniNT checked) and Credential Console(has MiniNT) both work with SYSTEM account.
If there aren't "Switch To Admin" plugin's files/registy items addition to the wim, the Credential GUI wouldn't show(get error), so make sure in this satiuation use the
origin Credential Console.(DO NOT apply the pathed.dll or use cmd(rename MiniNT) to use Credential GUI forcely)

I hope you can know my English words...

>So with default SYSTEM account (with NLA reported as not working)

I just tested the v1809, maybe the report is true for early version.

OK - I Edited RDC to Not require "Switch To Admin" Option

Added Patch DLL Process - IF "Switch To Admin" selected on build core

Option To Use ChrisR's launcher.cmd - otherwise Patched.dll is used - IF "Switch To Admin" selected on build core

compared Your Files From Main.bat - ChrisR added section but did not extract the 6 additional files...

~~Note: Deselecting "Connection With Network Level Authentication" checkbox will break current ADMIN account connection (Patched.dll)..~~

Hi slore,

Thanks for good news, minint regdelete/write workaround also used with Paragon Partition Manager , I do not know if same workaround works with Teamviewer etc...

Due to the nature of Type3 projects (Win10XPE and WimBuilderUI .....) which always extracts and overwrites from source (unlike Type2 SE) patched file can be overwritten...
The safe side (which I read Chris prefered) is minint regdelete/write workaround... Still Patching makes life easier.
There are a set ways to be sure file patched (eg. like optimization plugin or like Gena preiso....)
But I feel best way (not tested) for NT6x (since %SystemDrive% %99 writable) is something like this:
