Yep, I get the same error, tested in a VM anyway, and verified file does exist in target system32 -v10.0.22621.457
from Win11 source, - will test from Win10 source

It works in Win10 so must be a change in Win11. If you run with a debugger (like x32dbg) the .dll loads, but is then unloaded shortly thereafter.

it works in any version of windows 11 i have tried it with on various laptops - so surely the problem is related to Phoenix - i dont doubt its something microsoft have done but they are not going to sort things and the wifi software seems unsupported its certainly been a while since it was updated

if its not solvable in Phoenix then a note could be added maybe?????

most likely a dependency of wlanapi.dll is the missing or causing the issue, so we should be able to sort it out.

[APT]

same problem occurs in XPE with a win11 source (at least in a VM)

issue resolved in commit 98f8022.

main issue was that Win11 introduced a dependency to mobilenetworking.dll in wlanapi.dll, which caused wlanapi.dll to fail it's initialization. This and other 32bit dependencies have been included in the most recent script.

Cheers!

excellent - many thanks

a sideways question - have you any idea where the registration info is stored - i have installed it on a laptop and one option in the PE install is to point to the reg info but i have no idea where it is - i have searched in the reg and deleted all reference to it i can find but it still shows as activated so i guess its some key not referenced to Lizard or the program

They use a 3rd party library to handle the license/registration keys. They are encrypted and stored in HKLM\SOFTWARE\\Licenses and HKLM\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Licenses for 32bit
Keep in mind that this 3rd party library is also used by other developers from other companies as well, so unrelated software that also makes use of this library may also be present in this key. Since the information is encrypted/obfuscated we really don't know which entries go to which software that may be present unless we can observe the software on that system, so Phoenix simply copies the entire reg key. If you looking to export off another system, exporting HKLM\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Licenses to a .reg file and supplying the path to this file in the script interface should register the software in PhoenixPE.

Question on touchpad drivers. Is there a good generic driver that will work with most touchpads? I find that some laptops (Acer especially) don't seem to work regardless of the driver I try.

I've not come across one in my lifetime. Your best bet if you have access to working systems is to export the drivers from each laptop with Drivers > Driver Integration > Export Host Drivers button or DISM and then include them in your build.

Yeah, good idea. I should have thought of that. Thanks!

Release 2023-08-03 has been published on github

Summer's are always busy, so this is primarily a maintenance release to update app URL's and fix some annoying bugs.

Hello!
I build last Phoenix PE from release 08/03/2023. After booting from USB All host drives are offline.
Is it a known issue? May be I forget something? Please, help.

[tsherr]

When I do a build with Phoenix (both the most recent version and one back) - if I check off Powershell Core and/or Powershell, it fails with an error.

The full logs say:

A support package was generated and saved to

[tonyadams]

i dont add powershell but have just done a build having ticked powershell core in system tools and it worked perfectly - am still using the old build from earlier this year and building using windows 11

if i have misunderstood your problem post back and i will try again

non of that helps much other than saying it works for me

[APT]

When I do a build with Phoenix (both the most recent version and one back) - if I check off Powershell Core and/or Powershell, it fails with an error.

I can only find a Powershell Core script in the latest builds, can you run the individual script and post the simple log - export and compress then post the resultant 7z file

[tsherr]

Here are the logs for Powershell and Powershell core.

@ tsherr
I only looked at the PowerShell log at the moment and you can see it's an old Win10PE SE script so you wouldn't expect it to work in the Phoenix project

edit:
and it looks like your PowerShell core script is from the wrong project as well

[tsherr]

Ok, thanks. I'm not sure how they got in there. I'm going to try a fresh install.

Edit: Yup. Somehow I'd screwed up and added those. Thanks for your help.

@tsherr

No problem - with hindsight, I should have been able to tell from your first posting, but wasn't sure which project they may have been from.

If I want to add a batch file to the desktop (or actually anywhere) PhoenixPE, what folder do I put it in?

Hi tsherr
a simple script just to give you an idea (actually creates a test cmd file and a desktop shortcut to it and a simple test to check it works)
