* MinGW32's delay loading functionality is not yet up to par with MSVC's and especially, for
some libraries (wininet, virtdisk) attempting to delay load them simply crashes the runtime.
* This results in the MinGW32 version of the app crashing when selecting a Windows ISO, as we
will then try to mount the ISO using virtdisk to poke the build version. Note that this crash
does not happen with the MinGW64 version or with MSVC.
* Closes#2272.
* Also fix a Coverity warning in SaveImageThread() and improve the VHD saving code.
* Now that we don't have to deal with Windows 7, we can use CreateVirtualDisk() to
automatically dump a physical disk to VHD/VHDX, so do just that
* Also move the relevant VHD/ISO imaging call to the appropriate source.
* Passing a non-formatting buffer as first parameter of uprintf() can lead
to an exception if this buffer happens to contain a '%' character, so
usage of uprintf() with string buffers that may contain '%' should be
sanitized.
* Also drop the _uprintf/_uprintfs aliases as they are no longer required.
* Required because some users appear to force kill Rufus while we're doing WUE patching of boot.wim,
and Windows prevents a .wim with the same path and index from being mounted twice, even if the
original .wim has become stale or deleted. Oh, and of course the WIM APIs don't have a force-mount
flag that would take care of this whole situation.
* Basically, this forces us to parse HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WIMMount\Mounted Images
and check each instance for a .wim/index match, so that we can access to the existing mount path
so that we can actually unmout the image (because, in typical Microsoft fashion, WIMUnmountImage
requires both the mount path and the source image to be provided).
* Closes#2199.
* Also improve the existing VHD code to use a struct where possible.
* Some "unofficial" Windows ISOs use a custom boot.wim that only includes the Setup
image at index 1, rather than at index 2, after the PE image, for official ISOs.
* Also refactor to add a long needed vhd.h header.
* Also fix a MinGW warning.
* Local account is created with the same name as the current user along with an *empty* password
(which we force the user to change on next logon). This is done to assuage users who might be
weary of entering a password in a third party application, and has the benefit of enabling
autologon when the install is complete.
* Note that the creation of a local account through an answer file prevents Windows 11 22H2
from bugging users about MSA *even with an active network connection*.
* For convenience reasons, only duplication of the current username is enabled. We *may* add a
dialog to enter any random username in a future version, but for 3.20, this is all you get.
* Likewise, the locale duplication is only carried out during OOBE and *not* WinPE (which means
that you still get the initial "Windows setup language and user preferences" prompt). This is
intentional as otherwise the default screen and "Repair Windows" options are not presented.
* It's not my fault that the Windows password change screen is super ill conceived, whereas it
doesn't hide the current password field as it should when the current password is blank, and
one needs to click on a very small arrow to get the changes applied, instead of a PROMINENT
button that should intuitively have been positioned right next to "Cancel".
* If you want to complain that we should just "present the user with XYZ and be done with it",
please bear in mind that we can't add new dialogs to Rufus as willy-nilly as you believe we
can. *ANY* new UI interface requires major planning, which is the reason why, for the time
being, we are limited to reusing a simple dissociated list of checkboxes for all WUE options.
* This moves the extended Windows 11 options (bypass TPM & Secure Boot) away from
"Image options" into a new explicit dialog, along with supplementary customization
such as enabling offline account (for Windows 11 22H2) and skipping all data
collection questions.
* This customization is now enacted through an unattend.xml file rather than offline
registry manipulation, so that this *should* also work with the Windows Store version.
* Also update arch detection and rework/reorganize upcoming translation changes.
* Note: The 'Remove "unsupported hardware" desktop watermark' option is *UNTESTED*.
* If 'Extended Windows 11 Installation' mode is selected, the system registry hive of
'sources\boot.wim' is patched to add the Setup\LabConfig registry keys that bypass
the TPM 2.0/Secure Boot/8GB+ RAM Windows 11 system requirements.
* You can use <Alt> to switch modes during an operation that supports it (e.g. Checksum
computation, DD image writing or zeroing, save to VHD, download, etc.
* IMPORTANT: This is *NOT* available for all operations. Especially, if you were hoping
to get transfer speed or ETA during ISO or WIM extraction, you *WILL* be disappointed.
* Also harmonize the code in checksum.c
* With no thanks whatsoever to Microsoft for *NOT* documenting that you need
to pass flag 0x2000000 to WIMCreateFile() if you want to avoid an open error.
One has to wonder if Microsoft isn't deliberately adding *BULLSHIT FLAGS*
that only they know of, to hinder competing third-party tools...
* Not having FILE_SHARE_WRITE on a disk or volume handle helps
prevent spurious accesses from the OS or other apps while we
are repartitioning/refomatting.
* 7z has a quirk in that one MUST specify the image index
when a WIM has multiple images, but the same index MUST
be omitted if there is only one.
* Because of this, Windows 7 Enterprise images reported a
(nonfatal) extraction error when trying 7z.
* Closes#680
* Also fix a typo in registry.h
* Also update Bled to latest, as well as build scripts
* Note: Considering that Visual Studio 2015 is both freely and legally
available for anyone who wants to use it to compile Rufus, starting
with this commit, I will NOT be supporting any other version of Visual
Studio but 2015.
* Check compressed DD images for boot capability
* Add DisableLGP setting
* Silence libcdio errors when scanning non ISO images
* Ensure UI displays "No image selected" when relevant
* Also update Bled to latest
