I'm trying to run a small winform app (code is C#) on WinPE (latest build 14393). Calling the exe starts the application, but the GUI doesn't show up. I injected .NET to PE via dism, so this is not the problem. Found a post where s.o. had the same problem, but I don't understand the solution. .NET GUI Not Displaying in WinPE I don't want to run powershell, because this would size up the PE boot.wim even more. It should be kept as small as possible. Any ideas?
walking through all those MS sites related to WinPE, I found the hint to success in starting my app. It works!
Dependencies: Install WinPE-WMI before you install WinPE-NetFX.
