I was actually using OnePiece_IE7 when I had this problem. Not surprising because it hasn't been updated. Trying again with NR_IE7en. Sorry!!

Edit: I've confirmed that NR_IE7en works. Sorry for being silly.

I'm getting the same thing and the IE7 addon I'm using does have it integrated. See my post here for more details.

Edit: Never mind. Stupid operator error.

Integrating NR_IE7en_Addon_2.0.4a_alt.7z after RED_XP_SP3_UpdatePack_12.08-03.7z using RVMIntegrator 1.5.3 results in two catalog files being out-of-date (KB958215 and KB960714). The conflicting files have been correctly integrated from NR_IE7en_Addon_2.0.4a (mshtml.dll, urlmon.dll and wininet.dll)....

Deleting resources is tedious. Here's a ResHacker script to remove all resources from MRT.exe except the VERSIONINFO resource for language 1033.

Remove the "*.*" from the destination directory.

I just can't stand a messy Start Menu. My buddy's little boy calls his father's start menu "a winding worm". And his program files directory is approaching 300 subdirectories. I agree with you 100%. However, I deal with this in cmdlines.txt. I have a cleanup.cmd that moves everything to where I wan...

Suit yourself.. I tend to not do things when if I feel there is the possibility there will be problems or it won't work right. Anyway, importing entries to HKEY_CURRENT_USER from cmdlines will work properly. And for post setup, you can easily issue a "reg save hkcu path \ntuser.dat" command. Hmmm. ...

One of the other reasons why I prefer true addons and not switchless addons. I've been thinking about this. While I understand the motivation behind .cab/.inf addons (aka, "true" addons), I find myself preferring silent installers (they don't need to be switchless). Here are my reasons why: 1) Sile...

LOL! It works. What else can I say?

"HKEY_USERS/.DEFAULT" is used as a template for new accounts. Try it!

Edit: Just to clarify, I'm talking about entries added to HKEY_CURRENT_USER during setup at T-13. RogueSpear has pointed out that this doesn't work for entries added to HKEY_USERS/.DEFAULT post-setup. Thanks for the clarification.

"Default User" is the template for new users. Anything you put in the "Documents and Settings\Default User" folder and in the "HKEY_USERS/.DEFAULT" registry will be there when a new user is created. I use this for all of my user-based registry hacks. That way they are present for all users. I also c...

Not a problem.

@ Zacam, should we integrate those "[HIVESYS.AddReg] "entries in our addons, are they neeed for exe files or should be used with others (theme addons, etc.)? and thanx HiDefHusker for sharing I would include the AddReg entries with any addon that has an installation program. It shouldn't be needed ...

To make some application installations go better, you need to have the TEMP environment variable defined. Unfortunately, TEMP is not defined by default at T-13. I figured out a simple way to make that happen. Here is my entries_ZoneAlarm.ini as an example (ignore the line wraps in HIVESYS.AddReg). T...
