According to my disassembly in IDA, it checks the tokens.dat file.
Creating a custom tokens.dat file will be a PITA and will be highly illegal.
My idea is to NOP the checks and return “LOL YES” every time.EDIT: It also checks SLGetWindowsInformation (note the lack of DWORD there).
We need to also pass info to that using the custom SLC.dll, but I’m clueless there.According to my disassembly in IDA, it checks the tokens.dat file.

I just watch Band of Brothers on my external hard driver thur TVersity. Work prefect! I tried a lot of upnp servers and none really worked good. Forget Windows Media Center! wmr
Look, what I found!
Well, but this howto is probably useless for MCE from Win 7 because of that stupid tokens.dat check… 🙁Look, what I found!

I think a good place to start looking is in the [localurl=viewtopic.php?f=11&t=61#p953:37tbwm8t]Wishlist – Vista Media Center in Server 2008[/localurl:37tbwm8t] topic and the pages linked from there where they got stuck on a Software Restriction Policy. 😕 Hope you can make some progress in this Wish; it would make a lot of people happy! 😉

Hi.
Welcome to the forum.
Thank you for the information, however the post on MDL says:
“The Work is tested on Windows Home Server 2011 (VHS-2011/ Vail)
but I’m sure it will work also on other 2011 servers:
Storage Server Essential 2008r2 (SSE2008r2 / Breckenridge)
and, possibly on Small Business Server 2011 (SBS 2011 / Aurora).Likely the Standard 2008r2 Servers will require more work because missing codecs/drivers and so on.”
@The Solutor wrote:It’s done 🙂
The problem does not seam to be solved yet….
And there is no instructions for how to do it in that post,
there is a link to another thread which in turn references another post,
which contains a confusing text about 2 needed exe-files,
with a reference to yet another post about one of the exe-files,
and references to a script mentioned somewhere else…Typical for MDL, there are a lot of useful information over there, the problem is to find it… 😉

HI
Instructions have yet to be written because time constraints.
Anyway people spent months do get that working, who’s interested can spend five minutes reading the two or three relevant post.
Basically grab the WMC cabs from W7, add them to the WHS ISO, rplace four files, commit the changes, burn the ISO.
Understand how to do it was pretty complicate, but now make your own WMC enabled ISO is deadly simple.
The problem does not seam to be solved yet….
The big part is solved.
We have WMC working on W10, on Enterprise/Education versions, and on 2011 servers (and possibly embedded versions).
I tested the W10 On server 2016 and server 2012r2.
Wmc starts but crashes during the initial setup.
Surely the restricted codecs must be installed and possibly something else about the BDA drivers wold be also needed.
I don’t think would be rocket science given we have an easy way to export and import the basic packages.
