SCCM Tips, Scripts and Tools

Introducing the latest update to PEBuilder, After some feed back from users I have worked to add support for windows 7. PEBuilder 4 should work in windows 7 to windows 10.If you are installing PEBuilder on windows 7 you will need to install .net 4.0 or higher and Windows Management Framework 5.1


ChangesAdded Support for Windows 7Changed the CopyPE function to work completely in the script and not write to temp Updated the PEBuilder.exeNow Requires admin rights Sets the PowerShell execution policy to bypassReworked the process that creates a ISO and burn WinPE to a USB drive  More information and downloads can be found HERE

By default Windows 10 and Server 2016 dosnt have the install files needed to add .net 3.5. So when you try to install it like any other feature it fails. In order to install .net 3.5 you will need windows 10 or server 2016 install media. Then you can do the fallowing to install .net 3.5

1. Mount windows 10 install media

2. Open a administrator command line

3. Run the fallowing command
Replace D:\ with the drive letter of your install media 

DISM /Online /Enable-Feature /FeatureName:NetFx3 /All /LimitAccess /Source:D:\sources\sxs
4. Once the install has completed you will want to restart the computer.

You could also copy the files from the install media and place them on a share to use this in a Task Sequence.  Simple place the command in a run command task.

CSV Viewer is the latest addition to my self made tool box, as always the tool is written in PowerShell and converted into a exe. CSV Viewer is a light tool that you can use on any windows device that has PowerShell 2.0 and .net framework installed. The tool will open a browse for file dialog box that will only allow you to choose a CSV file then once you choose a file a data grid will open the file allowing you to view the content, you can even filter and sort the content of the csv file.
