Windows Post-Install Wizard (WPI) is a hypertext application designed for giving users choice.

While Windows XP offers many ways of customizing the setup process out of the box, its major drawback is the lack of being able to select which applications an end user may install. In the past, end users and administrators needed to either download the files manually, or create overly complex scripts that could only be used once. This allows you to create one image, which can then be custom configured, and optionally, automated, so that end users can install any applications that have been configured into WPI.

What's New:

• Quotes are now put around the command paths so spaces in the path will be taken care of
• Created a new "built-in" manual. Only 50% done
• Options -> Miscellaneous tab eliminated. Log gadgets moved to Tools tab. Use Multi Defaults checkbox moved to Installer tab. Show Extra Buttons checkbox removed
• WPI now can detect if it was started from a CD/DVD or a harddrive. If started from hdd then the extra buttons (Options, Config,....) are shown. If started from CD/DVD then they are automatically hidden. No more forgetting to turn it off when burn a UACD
• Added two new commands for Config wizard: RegKeyExists() and RegKeyValue() for use in Cond and GCond statements. RegKeyExists("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\WPI\Theme") returns true or false. RegKeyValue("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\WPI\Theme")=="Glossy"
• Removed all code for Media Player in WPI main window. It is still available in the install window
• Added an icon in Config wizard to access Universal Silent Switch Finder to easily find the switches. Arguments are not allowed, just the plain path. Sadicq totally re-wrote USSF, gave it an interface, and incorporated it with WPI so can send the switches
• WPI used to add the \ (backslash) to system variables, it now does not to be more like native Windows environment
  A list of the global variables is now saved in the log file
• There are some extra sound files in Audio -> Beeps folder. Copy one to your theme folder and rename to TimerSound.wav
• The Manual button has been removed. Added About button in it's place
• Added to Options -> Installer: 'Start beep at t-minus seconds' To customize when to start count-down beep. Set to 0 to not play sound
• Added a check box in Options -> Installer: 'If grayed condition is true, disable the check box'
• Fixed a bug dealing with grayed condition not setting the text color correctly
• Added %sleep% to make WPI pause for x seconds. Put it on a command line: %sleep% 10 For a 10 second delay. The command window can't be hidden at this time
