    unfortunately that file was saved with ANSI encoding instead of UTF-8 so all unicode characters are lost now
    also there's Windows CR LF line break type instead of Unix LF

    it's better to open en-us.php with Notepad++ (on Windows) and edit it there using es-ar.php for the reference

    Sorry about that. I've now followed your instructions, so let's try again, and let me know if everything's OK.

    The thing is, since the beginning, I've been using a plain .txt and I've been copying its content here in a .php form.
    Anyway, it was a good thing, because I was able to spot some typos and I changed some translations.

    thanks, I fixed small language code typo (en-AR to es-AR) and changed autors and English language name lines
    otherwise everything looks fine, reuploaded local server version

    edit: another one - lang_es-ar is missing, I'll add it
    done, reuploaded again

    Oops! I missed the es-AR thingy.
    But what about the rest? You mean I should've translated this as well?

    Code:
    Translation information:
    English language name:
    Localized language name:
    Language code:
    Authors:
    And should I have added lang_es-ar to //Languages?
    Let me know so I can change it on my end for future reference.

    And since we're in it, I could see that the FAQs changed completely from what I had previoulsy translated, but they are now on GitHub and I can't see any translation for them. If you need those translated, let me know.

    Oh, I see now. I'll try to be more aware of those things next time.

    Yes, better, but you still have to edit the script after each update. The custom settings should survive an update (overwrite of all scripts). So, it would have to be more like W10UI.ini.

    I can just stop changing version in that script or call another branding one in the scripts folder
    never thought this is a problem

    Dark / Light mode should always be the same because of a cookie

    My browser does delete cookies at close.

    Other thought, check for a flag file (e. g. "dark.mode" in the same directory. Along the lines of:

    Code:
    if exists "%~dp0dark.mode" set dark=1 else set dark=0
    Thus, even when you overwrite the script with a newer version, as long as the file exists, dark mode will be kicked in.

    How can we modify the UUPdump to disable defender while compiling?

    I want UUPDump to create an ISO with defender turned off.

    So when I install Windows from this ISO on computers, I won't mess with Windows Defender.

    UUPDump ISO is ment to be as close as official ISO

    any customization are the user's choice and responsibility

    What is Updtbootfiles in ConvertConfig.ini? Is it safe to enable it?

    Just for reference, I found the answer from inside @abbodi1406 uup script itself. I should have read this before posting a new question; however, the UUP dump website does not show/download abbodi's uup-converter script first. The ReadMe.html inside the uup-converter explains all configuration options and much more.

    Code:
    Configuration Options
    Control conversion behavior, output and automation.
    
    You have three ways to change the state of these options, where 0 means the option is OFF (no), and 1 means the option is ON (yes):
    - edit ConvertConfig.ini under [convert-UUP] and [Store_Apps] sections
    - delete ConvertConfig.ini and edit convert-UUP.cmd script directly
    - use menu choice 6 (this does not include all options)
    
        AutoStart
    
        Start the conversion process directly without prompts.
    
        This require placing UUP files in UUPs folder, or starting convert-UUP.cmd from command prompt with path to UUP source folder, or drag and drop UUP source folder on convert-UUP.cmd.
    
        Set this option to 1 to create ISO with install.wim
        Set this option to 2 to create ISO with install.esd
        Set this option to 3 to create install.wim only
        Set this option to 4 to create install.esd only
        AddUpdates
    
        Update the ISO distribution or install.wim with detected updates after conversion.
    
        Set this option to 1 to integrate updates into wim files
        Set this option to 2 to add updates externally to ISO distribution
    
        See Add Updates Option for more details.
        StartVirtual
    
        Start create_virtual_editions.cmd directly after conversion is completed.
    
        See Virtual Editions for more details.
        wim2esd
    
        Convert install.wim to install.esd at the end.
    
        This option is intended to be used with AddUpdates option.
    
        This option will be auto enabled if you selected install.esd choice and AddUpdates is ON.
    
        Warning: creating install.esd will consume high amount of CPU/RAM, and take considerable time to complete.
        wim2swm
    
        Split install.wim into multiple install.swm files.
    
        This option will be auto disabled if install.wim size is below 4 GB.
    
        If both wim2esd/wim2swm are ON, install.esd takes precedence over split install.swm.
        SkipISO
    
        If you are not interested to create ISO file currently, or want to create Multi-Architecture ISO (x86/x64) later with multi_arch_iso.cmd, or intend to manually use create_virtual_editions.cmd
        SkipWinRE
    
        Do not add winre.wim to install.wim/install.esd, if you are not interested to have recovery environment or want to reduce ISO size/conversion period.. etc.
    
        note: adding winre.wim to install.esd will consume high amount of CPU/RAM.
        LCUwinre
    
        Force updating winre.wim with Cumulative Update even if SafeOS update detected.
        This option is auto enabled for Windows 11, Set this option to 2 to disable.
        UpdtBootFiles
    
        Update ISO boot files bootmgr/memtest/efisys.bin with new files from Cumulative Update.
    
        note: to accommodate KB5025885 changes, the two files bootmgr.efi/bootmgfw.efi will be always updated regardless this option.
        DisableUpdatingUpgrade
    
        Disable updating process optimization by using editions upgrade (Home>Pro / ServerStandard>ServerDatacenter), and do separate updating for each edition.
        ForceDism
    
        Use the official method with dism.exe for creating boot.wim, which require Windows 11/10 Host OS or ADK.
        RefESD
    
        Keep converted reference ESD files for future operations instead converting them each time.
    
        if UUP source is Express, Reference ESDs and Edition ESDs will be copied to new folder "CanonicalUUP", practically, this convert/backup Express UUP source to Canonical.
        if UUP source is Canonical, Reference ESDs will be copied to the same UUP source folder, and original CAB files will be moved to subdirectory "Original".
        SkipLCUmsu
    
        Skip creating Cumulative Update MSU for builds 21382 to 25330 (LCU will be added using legacy cab+psf extraction).
        SkipEdge
    
        Set option to 1 : Do not integrate Microsoft Edge Chromium with Feature Update Enablement Package or Cumulative Update.
        Set option to 2 : Skip Microsoft Edge Chromium with Cumulative Update via alternative workaround.
    
        This option works only with option AddUpdates=1 (Integrate).
        AutoExit
    
        Exit the conversion process (script) on completion without prompt.
    
        useful option for multi batch conversions, best used with AutoStart option.
        ### Below options apply only for builds 22563 and later ###
    
        SkipApps
    
        Do not add Store Apps.
        AppsLevel
    
        Control added Apps for Client editions (except Team).
    
        Set to 0 to add all referenced Apps
        Set to 1 to add Store, Security Health only
        Set to 2 to add level 1 apps + Photos, Camera, Notepad, Paint
        Set to 3 to add level 2 apps + Terminal, App Installer, Widgets
        Set to 4 to add level 3 apps + Media apps (Music, Video, Codecs, Phone Link) / not for N editions
        CustomList
    
        Enable using CustomAppsList.txt or CustomAppsList2.txt to pick and choose the added Apps.
        If enabled, this option takes precedence over AppsLevel option.
    
        How to use:
        You can either use CustomAppsList.txt directly, or copy/rename it to CustomAppsList2.txt
        Edit the choosen file, and remove # prefix in front the Apps you wish to add, and save the file.
    
    Thank you Prof. @abbodi1406 , you are amazing! I think this info/ReadMe should be on the first post of this thread and maybe on the UUP dump website. As there are some of those conversion options in the UUP dump website, there could be an advanced mode for all the conversion options (along with their description info from abbodi's ReadMe file) in order to fully configure the ConvertConfig.ini file from inside the website.
