Hello,
I've spent some time trying to get why Winbuilder did not work on my nice Windows 2008 R2 Server which our admin staff uses as developpment platform.
I had an error on BUILD stage RETRIEVE TOOLS telling that cmd.exe cannot be copied to [your project location].
While reading logs i found out that my %WINDOWSDIR% variable pointed to c:\users\administrator\WINDOWS, folder that obviously exists and is a chrooted WINDOWS folder when using terminal server.
Once i found this out, i figured out what to do to run WinBuilder on my Terminal Server, here's the script:
Hope it helps![:)]()
PS: if you ask why i run winbuilder on a terminal server, there's a simple reason: The server is our IT staff server.

@echo off :: Getting current user session in install modus change user /install :: Loading Winbuilder start /wait winbuilder.exe :: Getting current user session back in execute modus change user /execute
Hope it helps
