I will gladly listen to all suggestions and hopefully impliment them. I myself am a one-man software developer. I create specialized computer software for multiply disabled students and their teachers. If you visit my website: www. Thank you very much! It will help a lot of users, as we can finally refer it to everybody.
As to suggestions, I've been referencing most people to -X-'s image guide, since it contains updated screenshots of the latest version of nLite. Anyway, -X- agreed on sharing the images in the case a guide would be made. Maybe -X- will give his accordance again in this topic. I didn't realize you were blind, xper. Thanks for the guide, hag You really shouldn't steal xper's identity. It will get you into trouble. I downloaded the nlite image file, and these images are a bit different from what I have.
These are for version 1. Who do I need to ask for permission to use them in an updated reference guide? I'l like to have the proper permission to use them. I mentioned in post 3 that, in a conversation with -X-, he mentioned he wouldn't mind sharing the images if a proper guide like this one for use on MSFN was made.
It would still be nice if -X- would confirm it. Why, oh why are the FAQs from nliteos. I suggest you put a link to them in the 1st post of this thread or that a mod creates an additional sticky.

Cache will be automatically maintained, if an entry from it is not accessed in 14 days, it gets automatically deleted on closing the tool. To delete the entire cache, either do it manually or use the Erase button next to File — Settings — Update extraction cache.
Note the thousands of files in the cache, seems like a waste to delete reusable extracted packages for those integrating multiple times a month. Recovery : if a future package installation breaks for any reason, on Windows 10 see up about Start — Tools — Host Refresh, to repair without a full reinstall.
Latest ISOs can be downloaded from Microsoft here for end users, if you have MSDN subscription, use that to get the oldest 20H2 , then update it with latest updates and feature upgrade of choice.
Note that packages update images, while images cannot update images, they replace them. Drivers This page integrates drivers to an image, and can be used to check if all the needed drivers are covered for the loaded target. Supported drivers are in the INF format, with the accompanying files in the folder as they came originally in the package. You can import drivers from the host, or download from the internet. If the driver is only available in the EXE format, extract it first — the method depends on the driver, sometimes just a switch, if you cannot find how, contact us.
This machine list is also reflected on the Components page, Compatibility list, to easily protect needed drivers for the targeted machine if removing components. Reuse driver cache An option in the toolbar, used to reduce the effective Windows size, utilizing NTFS links between identical driver files in cache and where deployed e.
Most space saved when used on Live deployments with installed drivers. Registry This page applies registry. It will automatically translate registry key paths to an appropriate location, just use it as a normal reg file.
Common Directory subscription Each of these pages have the option to Add — Directory containing relevant files, or Subscribe to such a directory. While adding a directory once adds the files from it, he Subscribe option adds the link to the folder itself instead. Such subscription refreshes the file list in that directory on preset reload or pressing Refresh on the toolbar for that page. This can be useful when maintaining your own list of update, drivers or tweaks in a directory structure, or using NTLite in a script to reduce the need to adapt presets to new integration steps.
To see the list of subscribed directories, position the mouse over the Refresh button to see the tooltip. To unsubscribe from a directory, right-click on any file from the said directory and choose Remove directory. Remove directory will also remove any other files from that directory. You can also manually edit the preset file before loading it and remove or change the relevant Directory elements.
Unattended This page automates setup choices for an image, so that the installation can be fully or partially automated. First enable the page on the upper-left, check the extra options in the toolbar, then set the remaining options on the main list.
All options are queued to be executed on deployment of the loaded image. Autofill Set and overwrite available entries with the host machine data, where available, speeding up the process of setting up full automation.
All — fills the entire page and prompts for the first user creation. Add local account Create a local user account. Also has the option to enable the built-in Administrator account, and to auto-logon a user. If using a specific disk size, in gigabytes, move recovery image before or after it, button as a green arrow is on the right. Disk size can also be extended, to use all available space. If main partition is extended, recovery partition can only be before it.
To switch back, enter any size for the Operating system partition. Type 0 for size to remove a recovery partition. One partition has to be selected as the deployment target, or the setup will prompt for partition selection and automation will be lost. Be very careful when configuring formatting or wiping, that the disk and partition IDs are correct, maybe even pre-test in a virtual machine configured with the same disk layout.
Enable this option to include SetupComplete. This cmd file is also used by the Post-Setup functionality, described below. Use only if directly deploying an image to a partition, without Windows setup. Copy to boot image Copy the answer file directly to the setup boot image. Can help machines which otherwise do not apply Unattended settings on booting up this image. Dual architecture If using a bit image, this also saves the bit automation entries, and vice-versa.
This is helpful when building multiple-architecture, All-In-One images, otherwise not necessary. This also enables prompting the list of all editions on the image during the setup boot-up, otherwise setup will automatically pick the last configured edition.
It can be combined with other letters, e. Post-Setup This page automates execution of apps and scripts at the end of an image installation, or directly after processing if used live. Use the Add drop-down in the toolbar to add files, commands or see existing templates.
A file can be an installer, or a passive file, type of each can be seen in the Type column. There are two boxes and toolbar tabs on the page, Machine and User. Machine entries run at the end of setup, before users are created, while User entries are ran on the first user logon.
It is recommended to use the User box, unless needed differently. Note that if using an OEM product key, and Machine list does not run by default. Installers will be automatically copied and executed during deployment, then deleted from the temporary location.
Make sure all the installers have their correct silent switches set in the Parameters box, otherwise the installation will hang at the login screen if using a Machine list. REG files will be automatically copied and applied at the end of setup. While at first seems the same as Integrate — Registry, the difference is the real integration puts it directly in the image registry hives, while this one is delayed-applied at the end of Windows setup.
Reason being there are certain rare registry keys that are either reset during setup, or break the setup. Passive files will not be executed, just copied and deleted after all the installers are done.
Apply This page contains the final image processing options, the full list of pending changes, and the Process button to start applying all the queued changes to the loaded target. Before actually pressing the Process button, review the pending changes on the right, and do some final choices on this page.
Saving mode Choose between: — Save the image, just saves the changes to the loaded edition, keeps the other ones. This is useful when doing multiple sessions to not need to wait for saving and remounting each time. Remove non-essential editions Provides the ability to manually select which editions to remove.
You can also manually remove editions on the Source page directly by right-clicking it and choosing Delete. Image process queue With this option, selected current tasks can be multiplied to the other editions on the loaded image, not needing to manually do so for each edition.
For example you can select to integrate a driver to install. By ticking the checkbox you will be asked for a file destination. For guides and more resources, check out the Support page.
Checkbox color labels: Green — Privacy Blue — Gaming Orange — Lite Red — Not recommended to remove Compatibility Opened from the toolbar, these options help you protect the needed components from the removal, for a given feature set. On this page Updates, Drivers and Registry Updates This page integrates updates to an image, or installs updates to the currently installed system, depending what was loaded as the target on the Source page.
On this page Unattended and Post-Setup Unattended This page automates setup choices for an image, so that the installation can be fully or partially automated. All — fills the entire page and prompts for the first user creation Windows PE — fills just the boot portion of the setup, leaving the OOBE prompts as set Reset — resets the whole page back to defaults Add local account Create a local user account.
