Hi ChrisR and other developer,

I've seen that you have ported my explorer-script from VistaPE to Win7PE_SE and added many settings on the interface.
It is a great work and explorer works fine.

I have some little optimizations for the script.

in the section hive_load,HKU I add the follow entrys:


Reg_del,"%reg%\Classes\Directory\Background\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\Gadgets"

Reg_del,"%reg%\Classes\DesktopBackground\Shell\Gadgets"

Reg_del,"%reg%\Classes\DesktopBackground\Shell\Personalize"


This removes the contextmenuentrys "Gadgets" and "Personalize" from the desktop-contextmenu they are no works. You can also remove the entrys from explorer.reg in reg.7z instead the reg-del commands.

I also seach on the running CD in the registry for C:\ and found one entry from explorer.
Here the correct entry, you must replace it in the winlogon.reg form reg.7z


[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\WB-SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\GPExtensions\{e437bc1c-aa7d-11d2-a382-00c04f991e27}]

@="IP Security"

"ProcessGroupPolicyEx"="ProcessIPSECPolicyEx"

"GenerateGroupPolicy"="GenerateIPSECPolicy"

"DllName"=hex(2):25,00,53,00,79,00,73,00,74,00,65,00,6d,00,52,00,6f,00,6f,00,\

  74,00,25,00,5c,00,53,00,79,00,73,00,74,00,65,00,6d,00,33,00,32,00,5c,00,70,\

  00,6f,00,6c,00,73,00,74,00,6f,00,72,00,65,00,2e,00,64,00,6c,00,6c,00,00,00

"NoUserPolicy"=dword:00000001

"NoGPOListChanges"=dword:00000000

"DisplayName"=hex(2):40,00,58,00,3a,00,5c,00,57,00,69,00,6e,00,64,00,6f,00,77,\

  00,73,00,5c,00,73,00,79,00,73,00,74,00,65,00,6d,00,33,00,32,00,5c,00,70,00,\

  6f,00,6c,00,73,00,74,00,6f,00,72,00,65,00,2e,00,64,00,6c,00,6c,00,2c,00,2d,\

  00,35,00,30,00,31,00,32,00,00,00


Now the displayname from the dll is link to x:\windows. It is an cosmetical changes.

And last but not least I removed some entrys from active setup in the display-script (controlpanel, Display & Aero). Than no first initalisation for Themes on startup is running.
It is not needed.
Remove the follow entrys in section
Hive_load,Software:


//Reg_Add,0x1,"%reg%\Microsoft\Active Setup\Installed Components"

I can find these in the file - EXCEPT for the first one on the ContextMenuHandlers...

When I removed the keys from the Reg.7z explorer.reg file, (as I said, only the last two were in that file), I still saw an entry...I did see this in the PE after I booted, and when I removed it, and restarted the explorer process, it was finally gone...I'm learning... ;) But still not 100% sure where it's coming from...

isn't it in the WB-SOFTWARE key (instead of just SOFTWARE ???

Thought so...as you said) it's more cosmetic, and it's just the "43" being changed to a "58" (hex value for "C" vs. "X")...

I'll make these changes and edit this post after testing them...

Still testing... :loleverybody:

Never could figure out where this one came from...
Reg_del,"%reg%\Classes\Directory\Background\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\Gadgets"

So, just decided to do the delete for it. Others were removed in the Reg.7z file attached registry files...But, while I removed them there, it still didn't solve the issues...So, just adding the delete for all of them...

Also made the cosmetic change in the winlogon.reg file inside reg.7z as well.

Seems to work OK...Will let ChrisR and others do final verifications and future inclusion in the project at their discretion...

Now my last optimizations summarized for featured versions:

1. Remove Gadget from Desktop-Contextmenu
Delete ...Classes\DesktopBackground\Shell\Gadgets

This Entry I found in follow Reg-Files:
Shell&Config - Software.7z - Win7x64_Classes.reg
Shell&Config - Software.7z - Win7x86_Classes.reg
Explorer - reg.7z - explorer.reg

Delete this in all the files:


[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\xx_software\Classes\DesktopBackground\Shell\Gadgets]

"MUIVerb"=hex(2):40,00,25,00,50,00,72,00,6f,00,67,00,72,00,61,00,6d,00,46,00,\

2. Working Personalize from Desktop-Contextmenu
(I think its the better way instead remove from Contextmenu)

no reg_del from my first tread
Reg_del,"%reg%\Classes\DesktopBackground\Shell\Personalize"


Add Classes to follow Files:
Shell&Config - Software.7z - Win7x86_Classes.reg
(in Win7x64_Classes this is allready include)

Thank you very much 2aCD ;)

For Gadget, I think it is better to keep the keys in the registry files for possible use of gadgets in the future and delete the keys in the script with a comment.

RegDelete,HKLM,%reg%\Classes\Directory\Background\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\Gadgets

RegDelete,HKLM,%reg%\Classes\DesktopBackground\Shell\Gadgets
small change for Working Advanced Display-Settings and ClearType-Settings ;


    [CopyFiles_SyS32]

    CopySys32,dxva2.dll

    CopySys32Mui,dwrite.dll



    [CopyFiles_SySWoW64]

    CopySysWoW,dxva2.dll

    CopySysWoWMui,dwrite.dll
great, good Optimizations.
and It seems that you solved the option Personalize, who does not work actually in x86.
I test all this.
;)

in the explorer-script for comment in the future

Here are the scripts corresponding to these optimizations, verified and tested.
Good improvement for the control panel display and the option of context menu Personalize.
The Gadget Option from context menu, not used today, was removed.

20110202.7z with the scripts 2-Config, 1-explorer, 5-explorer and Display
it will be in the next update of the project.

Thank you 2aCD :thumbsup:

Hi ChrisR,

here a little optimization for MMC-Script.
For a working extended-view-tab in services.msc (without activated ie8) add this to software.reg in reg.7z


[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\WB-Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\ActiveX Compatibility]

"Version"="6.17"


Here ist the fixed reg.7z:

This is some great progress. Any chances of getting that Network and Sharing Center script to work properly?

networkcenter.zip is floating around the forum but it partially works. For example, you can't connect to a wireless network and the wireless network profiles dialog is also missing.

Here a link to networkcenter.7z from Dera post 52.
PENetwork works fine (with few small issues), Does Networkcenter really brings more ?
The networkcenter Script work and it, perhaps, needs some improvement.

here the last one cosmetical change,
that removes controlpanels they have no use.

I hope not the last one Posted Image
Done, Thanks.

Yeah, PENetwork works fine indeed, I guess it's fine. I prefer network center because the whole environment feels more complete and I am just used to keep changing the IP address and settings via it, that's all :whistling:

I read some posts above about removing the Gadgets link from the desktop right click menu. Although, a rescue environment, if something already works (and the Gadgets do work based on my observations), I think it should stay unless it seriously impacts resources. Again, the whole environment feels more complete and promising.

Maybe a future addition, but as you said, things do not work now. it needs, perhaps, some improvement.

Do you have a script that works to add gadgets. ? I do not see the utility in a PE Environment and there is no script for that actually in Win7Pe_Se and so I find this well.
Perhaps a checkbox in the additional explorer options to activate it or not (disabled by default).

Ok, let me check if we are on the same page here :whistling: With the way I built WIN7_PE, I am able to right click the desktop and select Gadgets. The Gadgets dialog box appears and I am able to drag them onto the desktop. I have tried this, it works. As far as new downloaded gadgets are concerned, I have not tried this yet.

I have quite a few extra scripts selected/installed (BitLocker is one of them) so if you are not getting the gadgets to work on yours, I am sure I can locate which script brings up this functionality.

I had tried before with a script of Ludvici, it worked but not completely and since I do not see much the utility in PE, I have not tried it more, if you have a script that works !
Do you have interresting Gadget for a rescue environment ?

I see more the utility of a complete networkcenter.

If,%pCheckBox126%,Equal,False,RegDelete,HKLM,%reg%\Classes\Directory\Background\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\Gadgets

If,%pCheckBox126%,Equal,False,RegDelete,HKLM,%reg%\Classes\DesktopBackground\Shell\Gadgets



[Interface-Additional]

...

pTextLabel51="Context Menu",1,1,293,182,101,18,8,Bold

pCheckBox126="enable Gadget",1,3,292,209,200,18,False

Hi ludovici,

thanks for your works :cheers:
I think, the best way is, you publish the changes and ChrisR implements to explorer-script with checkbox.
He has the lates version from explorer.

I just confirmed, installing additional gadgets does not work but the default ones that come pre-installed work fine such as CPU meter etc. Later I will test WIN7_PE with default options to see if default gadgets work and if they don't, I might know which script is responsible for making the default ones work and I will post instructions here.
