How to change SID on Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 using sysprep?

In last post I described how to check SID on Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2, today I’ll describe you how to change SID on Windows Server 2008 R2 and Windows 7 using sysprep. I see many of you are looking how to change SID using NewSID, but New SID is not officially supported by Microsoft. You could use NewSID on Windows Server 2008, but when you try to use it on Windows Server 2008 R2 it won’t work, actually, it will “destroy” operating system. I didn’t test it on Windows 7, but still my advice is to use sysprep. Changing SID using sysprep is also very simple, just follow few steps as described below…


I tested sysprep on Windows Server 2008 R2 Datacenter edition, but same steps apply for Windows7 also.

First, click to Start->Run, type sysprep and press OK.





This will open sysprep folder which is located in c:\Windows\System32. Open sysprep application.





This will open System Preparation Tool 3.14 window. As a System Cleanup Action select Enter System Out-of-Box Experience (OOBE). Important: select Generalize if you want to change SID, it’s not selected by default. As Shutdown Options select Reboot.





It will take some time for sysprep to finish, so grab a cup of coffee and wait.





After rebooting you’ll have to enter some data, for example, Country or region, Time and currency and Keyboard input.





Also, you’ll have to accept EULA. And that’s it. After booting, in Server Manager you’ll see that everything is changed, if you had some settings set now they’re changed.





Now you can again use PsGetSid to check that your OS has new SID.

VMware ThinApp v4.03 免安裝繁體中文化版 + 教學

VMware ThinApp是一款應用程式虛擬化工具,但對於我來說用的更多的是製作單檔軟體和便攜軟體;VMware ThinApp將程式相關資源如exe、dll、ocx、註冊表項等封裝到單一的EXE檔中,程式運行時需要的資源也都從這個單EXE的虛擬環境中,從而實現與作業系統的隔離。

借助VMware ThinApp的封裝可以製作比較純正的單檔軟體,而簡單設置參數後,VMware ThinApp也能充當製作便攜軟體的角色;大部分情況下,VMware ThinApp也確實能出色的工作;之前一直想做一個簡單的ThinApp使用教學,不過總是沒堅持下來,這次借著新版VMware ThinApp的發佈就先整理出一個製作思路來吧,希望能與大家共同探討學習下。不過現在我還是不太喜歡單檔軟體了,尤其是ThinApp封裝的,更傾向於綠色軟體和免安裝軟體。
引用
1. 首先運行程式「Setup Capture.exe」,ThinApp會以嚮導模式完成程式打包,點擊「Next」繼續。


2. 這裡簡單介紹了注意事項,最主要的就是在一個乾淨的系統上掃描形成系統快照,好處就是能得到程式正常運行所需要的最多資訊。



如需要自訂掃描配置,點擊「Advanced settings...」,這裡可以設置需要掃描的驅動器和註冊表分支,設定好之後確定返回。



3. 點擊「Next」後ThinApp會以掃描當前檔案系統和註冊表並形成一個快照,ThinApp正在保存快照:



待系統快照完成之後,VMware ThinApp會給出提示,即開始安裝並配置好你需要封裝的程式,建議將程式安裝到預設位置。一切完成之後點擊「Next」繼續:



4. VMware ThinApp進行程式安裝後的系統快照掃描:



掃描完成後將會提示選擇程式入口點,即從哪個程式開始啟動,一般就是主程序檔,通常 ThinApp會自動選擇好:點擊「Next」繼續。



5. 進入「Sandbox Location」設置,Sandbox是Thinapp的沙盤或緩存目錄,及程式所作更改的保存路徑,以後再運行封裝的程式時會從Sandbox中讀取配置資訊,如果刪除Sandbox的話,程式就會復原為預設狀態(即快照時的狀態);

VMware ThinApp提供了三種模式:「User's profile (%AppData%\Thinstall」目錄就是系統的Application Data目錄,「USB flash / portable media」就是將「Sandbox」保存到exe檔所在路徑,即相當於製作便攜軟體了、Sandbox路徑就跟封裝出的程式在同一個目錄中。



6. 點擊「Next」進入System Isolation模式設置;所謂的「Isolation modes」就是設置虛擬程式所做的更改如何影響到實際的電腦環境。

「Merged isolation mode」(合併模式)允許虛擬程式在實際的檔案系統中保存檔(如c:\user路徑,但系統目錄除外)、或者說封裝後的程式(Thinstalled App)對檔案系統的更改是合併進現有的檔案系統的;

而選擇「WriteCopy isolation mode」模式後,虛擬程式所作的更改只會保存到桌面和文檔目錄,而保存到其他目錄(如c:\user)是不可見的(被重定向並保存到到了Sandbox 中),或者說封裝後的程式對檔案系統的更改將不會在實際的檔案系統中可見,轉而保存到Sandbox中,如處理後的圖片等。這裡「Merged isolation mode」用的比較多。



7. 點擊「Next」繼續,這裡可以設置Thinapp工程檔的保存路徑,還可以設置封裝時的壓縮模式(Compression);

「No compression」即為不壓縮,「Fast compression」為快速壓縮模式;建議選擇「Fast compression」,能提供57%的壓縮率,而程式啟動時間跟「No compression」相差不多,就是第一次封裝的時候時間較長。



點擊「Next」後VMware ThinApp開始保存工程檔:



8. 保存完之後,你有兩個選擇:「Build Now」直接以預設參數生成虛擬化程式,或「Browse Project」返回到工程檔目錄自訂更多高級選項。



這是直接選擇「Build Now」後的情況,最後會提示Build Complete,封裝後的程式在工程目錄的「bin」資料夾中:



9. 選擇「Browse Project」流覽到工程檔目錄。在這裡可以刪除一些不必要的檔以減少封裝後的檔大小,如刪除説明檔、卸載程式等;而這裡的「Package.ini」就是封裝參數設定檔,由「build.bat」調用,我在這裡說明一下常用的參數。修改參數後重新運行「build.bat」即可生成虛擬化程式




*壓縮和分離模式,這在前面的嚮導已經設置過了,如果不滿意地方,也可以直接在「Package.ini」中更改:



可選項有:
CompressionType=None
CompressionType=Fast
DirectoryIsolationMode=Merged
DirectoryIsolationMode=WriteCopy

* 「SandboxPath」設置:SandboxPath即Sandbox路徑,SandboxPath即可以用相對路徑,也可用絕對路徑。




SandboxPath=. (EXE檔相同路徑下)
SandboxPath=%AppData%\Thinstall (系統的AppData\Thinstall目錄)
SandboxPath=LocalSandbox\Subdir1(EXE檔目錄下的子目錄)
SandboxPath=Z:\Sandboxes

*「OutDir」即打包程式的輸出目錄,不做過多介紹。
* 「SandboxName」即Sandbox的目錄名,最好設置為一個更好的名字,預設是軟體名稱。



*RemoveSandboxOnExit:程式結束時是否刪除Sandbox。
RemoveSandboxOnExit=1 (刪除Sandbox)
RemoveSandboxOnExit=0 (不刪除Sandbox)

*VirtualDrives:這裡保存的是快照時系統的驅動器狀態,包括類型、序號等資訊,以便運行虛擬程式時創建虛擬的驅動器狀態,我的經驗是最好是在一個虛擬機器中做快照,且不要有太多分區。

以上就是一些常用的Thinapp封裝參數,當然不止這些,還有很多很多高級的選項,需要的請自己參考説明檔吧,說明都很詳細,特別是ThinApp Scripts功能,可以在程式啟動或結束時運行批次處理或VBS腳本,這樣就能實現更多的功能了。需要說明的是VMware ThinApp並不是適合每一個程式,有的封裝後就不能運行,只能是通過ThinApp的升級來修復bug、支援更多的軟體;強烈建議在一個乾淨的系統環境中使用VMware ThinApp。我現在對單檔軟體不是怎麼感興趣,VMware ThinApp也用的少多了,不過還是希望能與大家多交流交流。

HTC Magic 免刷機取得 root

這篇文章整理簡單的步驟,幫助你

1. 取得 HTC Magic 的 Root 權限
2. 安裝 iWnnIME 輸入法,並且與 HTC_CIME(Touch Input 中文) 並存

先看效果圖 XD
按這裡檢視圖片

按這裡檢視圖片
注意,以下操作如果發生什麼問題導致你的機器變磚,請自行負責

一. 取得 Root
Step0. 事前準備
下載懶人包
或者:
下載 Android SDK

Step1. 開機時同時按下 Return 跟 電源鍵,進入回復模式,如圖
按這裡檢視圖片
看第一行的文字,如果是 32A 可以使用懶人包內的回復工具映像檔
如果是 32B 或者沒有使用懶人包,請到下面位置抓對應的版本
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=530492

另外,注意畫面中的第二行, HBOOT 版本
如果是 HBOOT-1.33.0006 或者 HBOOT-1.33.0010
你必須先將 HBOOT 降級,方法請參考 這裡

Step3. 連接你的 HTC Magic 到你的電腦,系統會抓到一個無法辨識的裝置
有可能會顯示為 My HTC 或者其他奇怪的名子

如果你是跑 32位元OS 而且使用懶人包,請直接安裝 x86 目錄中的驅動程式
不是的話,請在 Android SDK 中的 usb_driver 目錄找驅動

安裝步驟大概為:
裝置管理員-> 對裝置右鍵-> 更新驅動程式-> 不要用Windows Update
-> 從清單或特定位置-> 不要搜尋-> 從磁片安裝

這個步驟可能會卡住,如果失敗請試試別的USB槽或者重新開機

Step3. 確認 HTC Magic 螢幕中顯示 FASTBOOT USB 而非 FASTBOOT
裝置管理員顯示 HTC Bootloader

用命令提示字元 (開始->執行->cmd)

cd 懶人包目錄 或者 Android SDK 的 tools 目錄
fastboot boot recovery-RAv1.2.1H.img
此 處以懶人包附的回復映像檔為例,請照自己的情形修改
執行後出現
downloading 'boot.img'... OKAY
booting... OKAY

完成後請拔除你的 USB 纜線
本步驟沒有將會復工具寫到 ROM 裡,
如果覺得好用,可以下 fastboot flash recovery (映像檔) 取代原本的回復模式

Step4. HTC Magic 會以回復映像檔開機,執行畫面類似
按這裡檢視圖片
請先備份你的 flash ROM ,用軌跡球向下滑到 Nandroid v2.2 backup 即可

備份完後,可以開始操作了,重新連接你的 USB 纜線,
利用命令提示字元,執行 adb shell (adb在懶人包 或Android SDK的 tools目錄)
出現 / # _ 表示你成功了,失敗的話檢查驅動程式,我這邊是顯示成 My HTC

接下來請下指令
mount /system
cd system/bin/
chmod 4755 sh
完成後即可利用 Tetminal Emulator 以及 adb 以 root 權限操作
軌跡球滾到 Reboot system now 將 HTC Magic 重新開機
如果你有裝 Tetminal Emulator,可以發現提示字元從 $ 變成 #

ImgBurn is a lightweight CD / DVD / HD DVD / Blu-ray burning application that everyone should have in their toolkit!

It has several 'Modes', each one for performing a different task:
  • Read - Read a disc to an image file
  • Build - Create an image file from files on your computer or network - or you can write the files directly to a disc
  • Write - Write an image file to a disc
  • Verify - Check a disc is 100% readable. Optionally, you can also have ImgBurn compare it against a given image file to ensure the actual data is correct
  • Discovery - Put your drive / media to the test! Used in combination with DVDInfoPro, you can check the quality of the burns your drive is producing
Screenshot
ImgBurn supports a wide range of image file formats - including BIN, CUE, DI, DVD, GI, IMG, ISO, MDS, NRG and PDI.
It can burn Audio CD's from any file type supported via DirectShow / ACM - including AAC, APE, FLAC, M4A, MP3, MP4, MPC, OGG, PCM, WAV, WMA and WV.
You can use it to build DVD Video discs (from a VIDEO_TS folder), HD DVD Video discs (from a HVDVD_TS folder) and Blu-ray Video discs (from a BDAV / BDMV folder) with ease.
It supports Unicode folder/file names, so you shouldn't run in to any problems if you're using an international character set.
ImgBurn supports all the Windows OS's - Windows 95, 98, Me, NT4, 2000, XP, 2003, Vista, 2008 and 7 (including all the 64-bit versions). If you use Wine, it should also run on Linux and other x86-based Unixes.
It's a very flexible application with several advanced features that are often lacking in other tools, especially when it comes to burning DVD Video discs. It supports all the latest drives without the need for updates (including booktype / bitsetting / advanced settings on many of the major ones - i.e. BenQ, LiteOn, LG, NEC, Plextor, Samsung, Sony).
There is an image queue system for when you're burning several images (which you can automatically share between multiple drives if you have more than one) and an easy-to-use layer break selection screen for double layer DVD Video jobs. The Automatic Write Speed feature allows you store your favourite burn speed settings on a per 'Media ID' basis, right down to a drive by drive level. Data captured during the burn (write speed, buffer levels etc) can be displayed / analysed using DVDInfoPro.
Whilst ImgBurn is designed to work perfectly straight out of the box, advanced users will appreciate just how configurable it is.
Oh and let's not forget the best thing about it.... it's 100% FREE ;-)
Please do not use this software to make illegal copies of copyrighted discs.
