in my Run are 2 Keys.
  1. sconfig = cmd.exe /k %windir%\system32\sconfig.cmd (it is standard)
  2. corefig = C:\corefig\Start_Corefig.wsf
The corefig Key changed automatic after the second restart and i have a full checkbutton ( Load at windows startup) in the corefig-gui.

Uncheck the box. That will remove the second entry, which is causing your problem. It should not return on its own. All you need is the line that you added in step 4 in your first post.

OK, I see it.
Delete the automatically created line. Rename yours to anything other than "Corefig".

Nice work so far! Would be nice to view the Device Manager even if read-only since you've already included the ability to add drivers.

Overview

This is a group of PowerShell scripts that provide a minimal graphical interface intended to aid in common configuration tasks for Microsoft Hyper-V Server 2012 and the Core editions of Microsoft Windows Server 2012. It is built directly from the scripts in Core Config 2.0, but it is being worked on by a completely different team.

Tested Compatibility

  • Verified: Microsoft Windows Server 2012 (Core Installation)
  • Verified: Microsoft Windows Server 2012 (Complete GUI Installation)
  • Verified: Microsoft Hyper-V Server 2012
  • Not verified but should function: Microsoft Windows Server 2012 (Minimal Server Interface Installation)
  • Verified to be partially functional: Microsoft Windows 8 Professional
  • Verified to be partially functional (not recommended for this or any other Windows version prior to 8 and 2012): Microsoft Windows 7 Enterprise SP1 with Windows Management Framework 3.0

Installation

  1. From the Downloads page, acquire the ZIP or ISO distribution
  2. If you have downloaded the ZIP version, you may need to right-click on it in Windows Explorer, go to Properties, and click the "Unblock" button.
  3. Create a folder on the root of the target system. Ex: MD C:\Corefig
  4. Copy the contents of the ZIP or ISO to the newly created folder.

Uninstallation

  1. Delete the folder created in step 3 of the installation instructions.
  2. Delete the "Corefig" folder created under %ALLUSERSPROFILE% (C:\ProgramData on most systems)
  3. If you wish to reverse the PowerShell execution policy set by Corefig, open a PowerShell prompt and run the following:Set-ExecutionPolicy Restricted (note that other scripts you use may rely on a RemoteSigned policy)

Operation

This tool can only be run from the console of the system to be managed.

  1. At a command prompt, switch to the folder that you created in step 3 of the installation instructions, ex:CD /D C:\Corefig
  2. For the first run, run: CSCRIPT Start_corefig.wsf
  3. You may use the Start_corefig script on each run, but on successive runs you could use the following instead:POWERSHELL .\COREFIG.PS1

Common Problems

  • Restricted Execution Problems

    The number one most commonly reported problem is with execution errors even when the system execution policy is RemoteSigned or Unrestricted. These errors havealways been sourced to the .PS1 files being marked as Blocked. Please refer to step 2 in the installation directions above. You may also use the  Unblock-File cmdlet. It is easier to unblock the ZIP file and re-extract it than to individual unblock each individual script file.

Since the project is starting to gain some attention, I want to say a few things.
  • Thank you!
  • I am receiving your reports and code suggestions. Nothing is being ignored or thrown away.
  • Version 2 is in the works. It is pretty much a complete re-write from the bottom up. I plan to restore and extend the whole thing. I do not have a projected timeline, unfortunately. I just want to assure everyone that this project has not been abandoned.

New Post: Adding vmconnect.codeplex.com code into the hyper-v manager part of corefig

you will need to go to vmconnect.codeplex.com and download the files, the parts you really want are the wfreerdp.exe and its support files and the runtime installer and put the wfreerd.exe and supporting files in corefig directory and install the runtime.

then you can replace the corefig hyper-v.ps1 and psd1 with these files from
https://skydrive.live.com/?cid=f8e137f6fd1c75f2&id=F8E137F6FD1C75F2%21105&Bsrc=Share&Bpub=SDX.SkyDrive&sc=Documents#cid=F8E137F6FD1C75F2&id=F8E137F6FD1C75F2%21167&sc=Documents

This will allow you to connect to a VM from within Corefig Hyper-v Manager and I took the liberty of replacing the virtual networks text box with a more useful Total Number of VM's.!

New Post: Setting up the free Hyper-V 2012 on VMware Workstation

Hi, I have downloaded Corefig.zip onto my host PC. But I do not know how to copy these Corefig files from my host PC to the Hyper-V 2012 virtual machine running on the VMware workstation.

Following the Installation instruction for Corefig, I have created a C:\Corefig directory on the Hyper-V VM but since it is a command line window I do not know the correct way to transfer the Corefig files on my local host PC to the C:\Corefig directory on my Hyper-V VM. Can anyone advise me on that? Thanks.

I don't have a copy of VMWare Workstation to reference, but I believe you can set up shared folders between the host and guest and have it map them to a drive letter inside the guest.

You can download the standalone or integrated versions from pshvm.codeplex.com

Note the intergrated version is a hacked version of corefig it works but I do not support it and I am sure neither will corefig team.

Good luck

PSHVM making the hyper-v world a friendlier place ...one app at a time.

I can confirm that Corefig 1.1 does work on Hyper-V Server 2012. Been running it for months with none of the errors you mentioned. However, just upgraded to Hyper-V Server 2012 R2 and the Licensing section seems to be broken when attempting to open it: At C:\Corefig\licencing.ps1:1260 char:49 + $TextStrings.Info{$pboxInfo.visible = $true} + ~ Missing statement block in switch statement clause. At C:\Corefig\licencing.ps1:1262 char:56 + $TextStrings.Warning{$pboxWarning.visible = $true } + ~ Missing statement block in switch statement clause. + CategoryInfo : ParserError: (:) [], ParseException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : MissingSwitchStatementClause

Doesn't work correct with Microsoft Hyper-V Server 2012 R2: 1. There are no VMs listed in the Hyper-V Manager part of Corefig. 2. The Licensing section isn't working.

Thanks
