How to add a folder containing a setup executable and its required files to post setup (before logon)

[AsadAlrafidain]

Namely, I want to extract Nvidia driver and execute it's setup file during post setup/ before logon....I don't know where to put the extracted folder, nor how to point ntlite to the executable inside the folder


edit: I saw a post by garlin, saying tools that requires user input can only be run post setup/after logon, and because nvidia drivers setup executables have no silent/unattended parameters, I imagine they fall into this category....so if no one has something to add or an idea on how to do this before logon, I'll take that as the final answer.

NVIDIA's driver installer EXE is a special case, because it doesn't accept command line options. When it runs, the installer self-extracts the drivers and apps into a temporary folder and continues setup. If you extract the included folders yourself, then NVIDIA's included setup.exe file will take silent install options.

But there's a simpler method, which is to use NVCleanstall to repackage the downloaded NVIDIA installer.

NVCleanstall will allow you to extract the distribution, pick which components to keep, and make a new self-extracting EXE based on your choices. This way, you can run a fully customized executable from Post-Setup which doesn't need any extra steps.

NVCleanstall can disable the automatic reboot at the end of driver setup, in case you don't want to interrupt Post-Setup.

I used to rely on NVCleanstall, but it is currently broken after Nvidia integrated the nvidia app into their drivers , so I'm looking for an alternative method.
is it possible to include the extracted nvidia folder into post setup (before install) and launch the included setup.exe before oobe ? and if possible, what is the silent install command for nvidia's extracted setup.exe ?
