Hi,
firstly congratulations for this amazing system. In my job, we have Landesk
and it is really messy. this system, seems easy and reliable!
But I couldnt make it work! :(
I need to install Image Resize from PowerToys in 100 computers.
After reading the installations notes I decide not to use the

I have seen a number of other solutions that use a GUID as part of the

don't know how we would be able to create the GUID to put into the

Hi Rainer,
thanks a lot man. You were absolutely right. It is working right now. I
create an imageresize.xml in the packages folder with that lines but I didnt
know I should modify the packages.xml .
So, the first file is not needed??
Thanks a lot

Right. Strictly speaking it is not
Hi again,
this is what I have in packages.xml
package
id=imageresize
name=Image Resize
revision=1
reboot=false
priority=100
notify=false
execute=always
!--
notify=false - does not notify the user (with true user would be
notified)
execute=always -
So possibly using a GUID as the package could already be done. The main
difficulty with that is that it is not easy to remember and type in.
The advantage is that once a package has been installed you don't ever
have to worry when renaming a package for any reason. It would be an
optional header
Remove command is incorrect. Should be:
msiexec /qb /l* c:\netinst\logs\powertoy.log
/x{1CB92574-96F2-467B-B793-5CEB35C40C29}
You missed the /x. Review of the eventvwr usually helps with MSI
packages to see why they failed to install or uninstall.

Hi All,
I've got a few Vista machines to support now, alas, so I've been giving
some thought to how to get some information about what WPKG is doing to
the users. This mail is me thinking aloud so that people get a chance to

ok, it works perfect now.
Now just appear before all the process a message saying that the file is
already in c:\windows\download installation, if I want to replace or not
that file? any way to overwrite always??
but if I say yes, the package gets removed.

Hi Rainer,
I am maintaining XP and Vista clients too. That's why I made some
enhancements for full Vista and also 64-bit support in wpkg.js.
Any jolly good they are, too! The Vista machines are working well with
WPKG.
You're right - I never tried the logon delay feature on Vista. So you
