Creating unattend.xml for Windows 8
I am trying to create a new unattend.xml file for Windows 8.1
Upgraded to MDT 2013 and ADK 8.1.
MDT is failing to create an XML file. Tried using Windows System Image Manager and failing as well. The log states "1:43 PM : This application requires version 6.3.9600.16384 of the Windows ADK."
When i am looking version of Windows System Image Manager, the version is 6.3.9600.16384.
What am i missing?
Thank you.
The exe version is 6.3.9431.0. From WindowsBlue-ClientwithApps-64bit-English-X1899605 ISO. And MDT named is "Windows 8 Pro in Windows 8 Pro x64 install.wim"
And I upgraded the the deployment share.
And a new Task sequence is created.
I think task sequence is not the problem here as Windows
System Image Manager is failing to create an xml file as well.
Thank you,

How to create recovery disk for windows 8.1 after update from windows 8.
My laptop came with windows 8 and i have recovery discs for windows 8.
Now i've updated to windows 8.1, so i want to creat recovery discs for windows 8.1.
So in future when i use recovery discs i dont have to download windows 8.1 again.
Please tell me if there is any way to do this.....As colakid posted, in Windows 8 the ability to create a recovery CD/DVD has gone. Your options are to:
create a recovery USB; or
create a recovery image.
Recovery USB
Colakid's post talks you through how to make a recovery USB: from control panel, choose Recovery, then Create a Recovery Drive, and follow the prompts.
However, the 'recovery USB' can be a bit misleading. When the wizard starts, there is an option to 'copy the recovery partition from the PC to the recovery drive'. If you do not check this option, you will still need installation media to reset your PC.
Since you have upgraded from Windows 8 to Windows 8.1, you will probably not be able to check this option, as it will be greyed out (like it is in the picture in Colakid's post).
If you go ahead and create the USB anyway, you will be able to boot to it, but you won't be able to reinstall Windows unless you have the installation media (or possibly a system image, though I haven't tried that).
Recovery image
The recovery image is an image of your computer that Windows will use when you select the 'refresh my pc' option. You can create a recovery image using the recimg.exe tool.
First, open an elevated command prompt (type cmd and press Ctrl + Shift + Enter).
Next, create the recovery image by typing:
recimg /createimage [path]
Where [path] is the folder you want the image in, eg C:\Recovery. You cannot set the file name - it will always be called CustomRefresh.wim.
Let it run its course. When it's done, you can check that it is the current recovery image by typing
recimg /showcurrent
It's important to keep in mind what a recovery image contains. It will have your Windows system files (in their current state), and the desktop apps you have installed (so it makes sense to do this after a fresh install of Windows). It will
not backup any Metro apps or user files, because these are not deleted during a system refresh. If you want a complete backup of everything on your computer the way it is now, you should make take a complete system image (which
can be done from the File History settings in control panel - at the bottom left there will be a 'System Backup Image' option - or you can do it using any other backup software like Ghost or Acronis).
In my case, I created the recover image straight after upgrading to Windows and it was about 6 GB.
Prepare/Create and register an recovery partition, so the option Copy the Recovery Partition becomes available in the recovery drive UI application.
In elevated command run> RECIMG -CREATEIMAGE C:\REFRESHIMAGE<
This will create a new custom.wim in a folder Refreshimage.
Now lets get ready to register the path of the image, so our create recovery drive option(COPY THE RECOVERY PARTITION FROM THE PC TO THE RECOVERY DRIVE) becomes available.
> In the folder you created there will be a> custom.wim<
change it to>INSTALL.wim<
> Create a folder In Cd/directory using Elevated command> mkdir c:\Win8.1-Recovery,>
Win81-Recovery<.
> Copy the INSTALL.WIM. Put in the Win81-recovery folder created.
> Run in elevated commad>REAGENTC /SetOSImage /Path C:\Win81-Recovery\INSTALL.WIM /Index 1<
Do not copy the arrows if using copy and paste, that is my way of pointing out lines of code
Information provided by the link below, thanks Keith. I simplified the process for easy following and added my own tweak from trial and error for the install.

If i create a partition for Windows 7, and boot up in Windows using Boot Camp, can I still access the files from the Mac partition (Photo's Music etc.)
JDFitch wrote:
Ok Great,
Will installing Boot Camp drivers allow me to both read and write to the OS X Volume from windows?
This is important as if it will it means i can make the windows partition a lot smaller and keep all my files on the OS X partition which would be preferable.
Jon
No, OSX will be read only (from Windows) and vice versa. (you can install 3rd party utilities on either or both partitions, to make read/write possible) -
Creating private apps for Windows
Dear DPS Community
I would like to create Windows App and distribute this app internally.
I only found this information on Adobe's website:
Creating private apps for Windows
Microsoft has two requirements for enterprise deployment of Windows Store apps:
The app's device must be joined to a domain.
The certificate used to sign the .appx must be in the trusted list of certificates on the device.
The .appxbundle file provided by DPS App Builder is signed for submission to Windows Store. For enterprise deployment, you might need to re-sign the .appxbundle and its contents with your own enterprise certificate. Contact your Adobe representative for more information. For distribution of the app file, use any supported Microsoft method. You can even use a simple command-line method.
Where can I find further informations? Is there a companion guide for windows out there?
Thanks for your help.
- CindyMicrosoft’s guide for enterprise distribution of Windows Store apps is at http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh852635.aspx. There's nothing special about DPS apps that makes them different from a distribution standpoint than any other Windows Store app, and the Microsoft guide is the go-to reference for how to do enterprise deployment of Store apps.
Note that the DPS apps downloaded from App Builder are self-signed with an untrusted certificate. Most enterprises will likely have their own corporate certificate they’d prefer to use instead. To re-sign the DPS app:
Unpack the bundle using makeappx
makeappx.exe unbundle /p viewerpackage.appxbundle /d unpacked_directory
makeappx.exe bundle /d unpacked_directory /p resigned_viewer_package.appxbundle
signtool.exe sign /fd sha256 /f enterprisekey.pfx resigned_viewer_package.appxbundle
Go into unpacked_directory
Sign both .appx files using signtool
signtool.exe sign /fd sha256 /f enterprisekey.pfx viewer_x86.appx
signtool.exe sign /fd sha256 /f enterprisekey.pfx viewer_ARM.appx
Re-pack the bundle using makeappx
Sign the .appxbundle using signtoolsigntool.exe sign /fd sha256 /f enterprisekey.pfx resigned_viewer_package.appxbundle

I know there are similar other issues with IE 10 and Windows 7. This is WINDOWS 8.1, and the IE Welcome message is totally absent from the default unattend.xml in the c:\windows\panther directory. In fact, I did a sysprep without using any injected
unattend.xml - this is the Microsoft Default!
So I suspect this will start appearing all over again soon. Anyone figure out what was causing it?
Here is the new Specialize section from the xml:

I'm thinking of dumping the entire IE section and see what happens.I too received this error as I tried to run my first Windows 8.1 deployment. Per another post I commented out this line
<IEWelcomeMsg>false</IEWelcomeMsg>
from the IE section of the unattend.xml. I was then able to run my deployment. I do not see this line in your posting though.
I referenced this link even though it was for Windows 7.

Hope this helps someone.

To clarify, I edited the unattend.xml file from from Deployment Share, not C:\Windows\Panther.

BC Assistant won't create single partition for Windows on four drive MacPro
I have a Mac Pro with four HDs, and want to dedicate one of them to be a Windows disk.
When I run Bootcamp assistant and select the intended windows disc, I have the options to partition or "Erase the Disk and Create a Single Partition for Windows".
I select the Single partition option and continue, but the Bootcamp volume is not created. In Disk Utility it appears as an unmounted disk with name like disk4s2 or similar.
If I select the partition option, it correctly creates an "Untitled" mac partition and a "Bootcamp" partition.
I have repeated this with different hard drives and after zeroing out the intended disk.
Thanks for any help.
PS I have Softraid on my system, although neither my Boot drive or the intended windows drive are converted to Softraid format. The Softraid driver is installed on my boot drive. Do you think this might be the problem?Thanks Hatter,
Thanks for the answer, which unfortunately isn't quite appropriate in my case, which I didn't lay out fully in the interest of brevity.
My usual configuration is with a the bay 2 HD a dedicated Windows 7 whole disk installation, which works fine.
I occasionally need to support my father with Vista problems. I used to have Vista on this bay 2 HD, and still have a Winclone image from then.
My goal is to have a spare sled and slot in the Vista HD in when I need Vista. I don't want to start again installing etc.
Since starting this thread, I decided to proceed with the Bootcamp assistant option which worked, ie to partition to an OSX and Windows partition, and make the OSX one as small as poss (5Gb) then delete that partition. I have restored the Winclone image, and all is working exactly as I want it, except I have lost 5gb. Not a big deal. -
Tutorial or code sample in creating a .exe for windows
Hi all,
Can some kind soul guide me to a tutorial / materials / code sample in creating a .exe (for a java program) to run in windows ?
My intention is to create a .exe such that when it is clicked, the java program runs.
thanks a bundle.Java in not intended to compile into system executables. IMO, you should not do this, let your application remain cross-platform. You can simply make an executable JAR file, which makes your application run with a double-click on any system which have a JRE installed.
Anyway, if you really want to help M$ solidify their work, search the forum. It has been asked and answered several times. You have two options:
1. Bundle a version of JRE with your application, and create an executable file which runs your application on the bundled JRE.
2. Use a native code compiler like ( http://www.excelsior-usa.com/jet.html ).
Also, try these:

Creating Recovery DVDs for Windows 8.1
I just bought the Lenovo C560 All-in-One and it came with Windows 8.1. I was able to use the One Key Recovery to create a backup file on my hard drive, that from what I've read appears to be the same as having a recovery disk. However, I'd also like to create the back up disks on DVDs incase for some reason something happens to the file saved on the hardrive.
I open OneKey Recovery, Click on System Backup, Go to Back up to "Hard Disk or Removeable Hard Drive", then when I browse for a new location it will only display C:\ as the only option.
Is it not possible to create back up DVD's for Windows 8.1?
Also the Lenovo Solution Center is telling me to download Lenovo Rescue and Recovery, but it seems like that is only for Winows 7 and earlier. Do I need to download Rescue and Recovery or is OneKey Recovery what I need to use?
I should also say, I've browsed through this form and Lenovo's support pages, but nothing I found seemed to be for systems that came with Windows 8.1. The posts I read all seemed to be about poeple who had upgraded to 8.1 from another OS.Windows 8 will allow you to make backups/system images: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UHjRZdL_kUs
OKR will only recognized non-partitioned external HDDs 2 TB or less. If you have a 4 TB drive or a partitioned device then, OKR won't recognize the drive.
FYI: Trucrypt folder counts as a partition.
You should only need the OKR system. -
Creating an XML for the database having link to a table in another database
I have a database in which a table holds the link to table in different database.
I am not able to create the XML file.It is giving me an error
Error# 2516:XMLExporter Method Run of Object '_Application' Failed.
Is there any alternate or round about process to generate an XML file.I assume this is MS Access database? What version?
Is the link valid from within Access? Can you see the remote table?
You could make a copy of this mdb file and just remove this link table to see if the exporter runs to completion without errors.

Having an issue with creating a partition for Windows 8?
Hey, all. I'm trying to make a partition for Windows 8, but now it's stuck on the "shrinking the disc" phase of the partition. It's been over two, and it's only about 25% through. It's been there for a good hour and a half. Should I let it sit through the night, or do a full reboot?
Likely you have already figured it out by now and this is just a guess.
I suspect that if the flash skin is linking to it's embedded assets (not embedded) or is using css (same difference) then the flash player is not able to access the assets from the context of the page in which it is being included. Check for problems with the way that the paths were defined to those assets.
