    Tried.It changes a lot.
    But I think it's good idea
    To add option in uup dump site
    To download or not, not via script

    Attempted to build 22593.1 arm64 with UUPdump. Needless to say the "download only" option for getting a UUP set didn't actually download all the files as when I coped my "completed" UUP set from my Android phone (I run the downloader in Termux) the converter attempted to download a couple thousand appx files. On the phone only 61 items were ever downloaded and no errors came up. Is this suppose to happen?

    Yes
    Windows download package include Apps, Linux/Mac package don't

    currently, this is the only possible way for UUP dump to keep up with outboxed-Apps change in builds 22563+

    That's a bummer as my PC only has limited 768kbps DSL and can't download that many files. There also didn't seem to be anything on the summary page to indicate that.

    Is there a way to download those files on my Android phone which has far better and faster internet connection?

    EDIT: I found out how to download all the files to my Android phone for moving them to the PC. I did have to rerun the script multiple times though as some of the files would instantly fail with the "An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host" error. Those errors also appeared when the script on my PC attempted to download those files. I'm assuming those errors are normal and I'm just suppose to rerun the script until all the files download successfully?

    OK I'm running the UUP converter after getting the full UUP set including the Apps, and during integrating the Apps dismhost.exe is trying to reach out to certain IP addresses over TCP every time an app gets integrated and is getting blocked by my firewall every time. Will me keeping it blocked affect anything?

    Yes, you can download Apps separately on any platform (choose Any Language from the list)

    the download failures is due the high number (~ 2000) of small appx/msix files where their links expire too soon
    you can edit uup_download_linux.sh and increate the concurrent downloads -j5 to -j25 or higher

    Yeah it makes sense for the links expiring, though oddly enough with 25 concurrent downloads certain ones would always fail even after running multiple times, where as with 5 concurrent downloads multiple ones failed but everything would be downloaded upon rerunning the script once.

    Also, was it normal for all the dismhost.exe files to be calling out to certain IP addresses during apps integration?

    I don't see anything similar on Windows 8.1 Host OS
    i guess it depends on, or part of Windows 10/11 telemetry

    I'm guessing Windows 11 telemetry, since the dismhost.exe files that were being blocked had the same version information as the Windows 11 build that was being created. My host OS is Windows 10 21H2.

    @awuctl , I got an email what speak merging change for zh-cn language file, but I'm not see any localization text change in uupdump site.

    Another issue is when I access proxied uupdump site, I get error 526, speaks that 'Invalid SSL certificate'.

    How should I setup configuration file to get the newest stable retail Windows 10 image? F.i. I choose
    Feature update to Windows 10, version 21H2 (19044.1679) amd64 (not Cumulative). I assume feature version is preferred, no need for questions?
    Do I want cleanup or resetbase? I've encountered some posts about SFC errors, missing reboot to UEFI option etc... I don't want to cripple the system functionality in any way.
    Next switches - SkipWinRE, LCUwinre, UpdtBootFiles, ForceDism, RefESD, SkipEdge - IDK. I'd like to achieve the smallest final ISO size, I don't use Edge, I don't use Windows built-in apps in general. What options do I have with Store_Apps section (I'd like to keep the Store)?

    Many thanks in advance

    Code:
    [convert-UUP]
    AutoStart    =1
    AddUpdates   =1
    Cleanup      =0
    ResetBase    =0
    NetFx3       =1
    StartVirtual =1
