Hello all I am knew to this tool and this forum so if this is not the correct location for this moderators please move it.
I discovered this tool yesterday and it is fantastic I have already used it on 2 desktops and a laptop.
I have 2 questions:
1- When I built I got a warning about using an OEM disk but as I said I have used it on several computers already and it appears to work just fine. So why the warning, could something show up later?
2- I would like to add 2 pieces of software to the ones already on the disk (AVG, EZcleaner). I can not locate a conscise set of instructions on how to do this if at all possible could someone please point me in the right direction. Also I would like to remove the games folder, and again I can not find the instructions for doing this.
Also I am the desktop support staff at a small charter school overseeing about 60 desktops and several laptops of many diffrent configurations and I am willing to beta test new releases on the different equipment available to me.

Many OEM manufacturers ( such as DELL ) alter the CD's they distribute to support their own hardware and other changes they make... these are prevelant enough that the warning was mentioned. Most Microsoft distributed OEM CD's will work just fine.
The basic instructions for making plugins can be found in your [UBCD4Win]\help\[your language] folder. This can be a very complex or very easy subject and all depends on the program you are trying to make a plugin from. For instance, the AVG plugin is very complex when you understand how it needs to work and take everything into account. There will actually be a plugin for this later in the project but we are still working directly with Grisoft to address all of the issues. I'm not sure which issues that you may have with EZCleaner but you would need to find out all of the required files and registry settings that may be needed by it before you start. I suggest that you start by looking at some of the existing plugins as examples of the things needed.
To enable/disable a plugin such as the games... run UBCD4WinBuilder, click the Plugins button and you can enable / disable what you need. Do not disable any of the critical plugins.
