Hey everyone
I have now taken over your guide (Hellbovines "Optimized Image") and adapted it for myself. So far everything works fine, only one strange problem I still have. It seems that something with rights is not working properly:
- I have two HP laptops, one about 13 years old and one 2 years old.
- I have my custom image installed on both devices, which works without any problems
- I downloaded all the drivers for each laptop from HP.com and wanted to install them before I set foot on the internet for the first time
- This also works well on the old laptop.
- On the other hand, the new laptop, for which all drivers for Windows 11 are available (with the old one only for Windows 10), only very few drivers can be installed.
- HP drivers are usually SPxxxx.exe files. If you open it, a directory "C:\SWSetup" is created, where each driver gets an SPxxxx directory where its files are extracted.
- After unpacking, however, nothing happens anymore or a command prompt appears briefly, which soon disappears again, without a message. - In the log files, I saw the following: "Error Adding Driver Package: Access Denied"
- If I update the driver in the Device Manager for the devices without drivers and enter the folder C:\SWSetup to search for drivers, Windows "seems" to find the drivers and install them.
- When I try to open the folder C:\Windows\Temp in Explorer, I also get the message that I don't have permission to do so, whether I want to open it as an administrator, which then works without further ado.
- On my main computer, which I set up about 1 year ago with a custom Windows, I can open C:\Windows\Temp without any problems
- On the two HP laptops I create a user during the setup process, which is then (seems to be) the Local Admin
- I took the UAC settings from your guide.
What can be the reason for this problem? Somehow I'm the local admin, but I don't seem to have the necessary rights everywhere.
