    still hanging on this step
    WINPE (set 1 or 0)
    when enabled "1":
    require WinPE lang packs from ADK (Preinstallation Environment)

    can you explain more what to do incl. links for download

    Either install the appropriate ADK stuff or provide the cab(s) manually:
    Code:
    WINPEPATH
    optional
    custom directory path for WinPE language packs files, in case you do not want to install whole ADK WinPE feature
    you must keep the same directory hierarchy as original installed ADK

    The reason for askinng this i want to use msgm to remove compenent but there is much issues since compenents will be back after updating win10

    from msgm
    Windows 10 v1809/v1909/v2004/v20H2/v2H1 - Component Removal requries a source image with supported cumulative update integrated

    i think keeping compenents is way to go in msgm . windows without update will not be safe

    The term cumulative as in integrated updates is not the same as the use of the term on the UUP system.

    Both, cumulative update and feature update have at least the ssu/cu integrated, but the feature update has also the du for sources integrated.

    So, if there is the option to choose the feature update for your desired build, best to use that option.

    This is a thread with a specific subject, integrating language files into an ISO.

    Yes
    but you must manally set the full path for WinPE folder
    and uninstall ADK after copying the files
    WINPEPATH
    optional
    custom directory path for WinPE language packs files, in case you do not want to install whole ADK WinPE feature
    you must keep the same directory hierarchy as original installed ADK

    example:
    x64 German files:
    C:\MUIDVD\WinPE\amd64\WinPE_OCs\de-de
    x86 Arabic files:
    C:\MUIDVD\WinPE\x86\WinPE_OCs\ar-sa

    then you set the parent WinPE directory as path:
    set WINPEPATH=C:\MUIDVD\WinPE

    If they were on the serviced wim, they should be available at boot too. For win 7 remove the ei.cfg, for win 8.1 and 10 just add the ei.cfg.

    On a single index ISO the ei.cfg will skip the key stuff at boot, it also will enable to run scripts during oobe/setupcomplete stage and on a multi-index iso on a system with a msdm it also will enable to select all available skus on the iso.

    You can't or you have to create the other skus to run w10mui on and export the indexes to the pro index.

    Or run the current iso by the create additional editons scrip after integrating the lp stuff, dunno if that results in a working multilingual ISO, but possible.

    Should work fine, will take some time for W10MUI to integrate all language stuff into all indexes inside the wim.

    @nimdas it will work just fine. I used it to MUI-ify a 19041.1 multi-edition UUP iso(i just put in the boot.wim from mediacreationtool ISO). No modifications to the script are required. You just tweak the settings file to your preferences and you run the thing.
