WM6 Cooking Lessons ;) ?

"HV to TXT (Drop a .HV file).bat" default.hv {i move this out of my dump directory to tweak }
Edit default.txt in notepad. Save as Unicode {important to save as unicode}
Rename to boot.rgu
make_boot_hv.bat
rename the newly generated boot.hv to default.hv {I then move it back into my dump directory before i forget}

repeat for user.hv for any HKCU

Can you explain this section a little better? Maybe I am missing some files to do this. I have downloaded the make_HV_111 folder, but only have one .bat file included.

Thanks for you help and knowledge.

i used the files in this post -

The thread that has all these files can be hard to follow and every couple of pages, bepe was releasing new tools. These are the just the ones that made this process easier to do for me.

You only really need rgucomp.
To dump a hv file to rgu use "rgucomp -o hivefile.hv > txtfile"

to clarify what the batch scripts do, HV to TXT (Drop a .HV file).bat sets _FLATRELEASEDIR, adds the REGEDIT4 line and then runs RGUCOMP -o filename -nologo

make_boot_hv.bat just sets _FLATRELEASEDIR and then runs rgucomp.exe -b.

Rename to boot.rgu
make_boot_hv.bat

I need some help here... when I do these steps, I get a problem with make_boot_hv.bat:

Microsoft (R) RGUComp Version 1.0.000
Registry file processor and hive builder.
Copyright (C) 2004 Microsoft Corporation All Rights Reserved.
built: Nov 19 2004 15:17:13
importing registry file ".\boot.rgu"...
Failed to parse value name HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\callto!!!
InitRegistry FAILED in file ".\boot.rgu" within a few lines of line 9.
BuildBootHive: (RGUComp) !ERROR failed importing ".\boot.rgu"
wmain: (RGUComp) !ERROR failed building BOOT hive

I did not change anything in the default.txt, all I did is save it in Unicode.

This is the beginning of the default.txt file:

REGEDIT4

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\{030D681B-1DFC-4bd0-A72A-A9B3CCCDA653}]
  "DisplayName"="Camera"

Thanks for your help.

you have 2 variables on one line.

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\callto]
"URL Protocol"="" @=""

should be

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\callto]
"URL Protocol"=""
@=""

each variable needs its own line. did you use rgucomp directly or the scripts i mentioned in an earlier post?

Thanks for your reply. I retried it again, and the problem is that when I save default.txt as Unicode with Notepdad (under Windows XP SP2) it removes the linebreak between the variables...

Dude, if you want to do serious cooking

YOU MUST FORGET ABOUT NOTEPAD AND INSTALL AN ADVANCED TEXT EDITOR!!!
​

Notepad may be good for less-than-5-years-old babies learning how to use a keyboard. Any use beyond "learning the keyboard" IS NOT TOLERATED

Buy Ultraedit or Emeditor (the ones i use) or google for others (you can also find free ones) (BTW: emeditor personal ed. should be free).

Bye

Tried Ultraedit, but ran into other problems as only a small 28kb .hv file was written. What conversion do I have to choose in Ultraedit for it to work?

EDIT: had to save it with Wordpad, then it worked Don't know why Ultraedit doesn't work...

So now I got it working with Ultraedit however around the middle of the file, I get another error now:

Failed to parse value name HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Snd\Event!!!
InitRegistry FAILED in file ".\boot.rgu" within a few lines of line 5154.
BuildBootHive: (RGUComp) !ERROR failed importing ".\boot.rgu"
wmain: (RGUComp) !ERROR failed building BOOT hive

This is the part of the text file causing this error:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Snd\Event]
  "Curr0"=multi_sz:"alarm2", "", "alarm2", "default", "Empty", "alarm2", "infbeg", "infend", "infend", "", "", "", "alarm2", "infbeg", "infend", "infend", "alarm2", "", "", "voicbeep", "RecEnd"
  "EventCache"=dword:600
  "EventMask"=dword:1f7ed
  ".Scheme"="Curr0"

As I haven't changed this line, I do not understand what causes the problem...

Thanks for your help.
Mike

EDIT: had to save it with Wordpad, then it worked Don't know why Ultraedit doesn't work...
