    Why does uupdump/aria script etc never oblige my CustomAppsList.txt as a whitelist/blacklist for apps, any ideas?

    Show us your settings in convertconfig.ini and the customappslist.

    Why do people always ask a vague question and never provide the important details, any ideas?

    I got it working:

    [Store_Apps]
    SkipApps =0
    AppsLevel =0
    StubAppsFull =0
    CustomList =1

    I'm assuming I tried using a combination of customlist with something else, thanks! Got to love uupdump/aria

    SkipApps must be 0 (otherwise everything is skipped). AFAIK, the AppsLevel does not matter if CustomList is 1, as the latter overrides it.

    You should name your personal Apps list "CustomAppsList2.txt". If found, it is preferred over "CustomAppsList.txt", and updating the tool does not overwrite your personal list.




    @abbodi1406 - Would it be possible to apply the same mechanism to the settings, too? So, I could have my personal setting file "ConvertConfig2.ini", which is not overwritten on a tool update. Values are first read from "ConvertConfig2.ini", and only if they are not found there, from "ConvertConfig.ini" (and from the executable header itself, as third option).

    Pros only use uupdump to download, conversion is done manually later with their custom choices :p

    CustomAppsList2.txt was made because uupdump website doesn't provide a way to control apps

    however, most settings in ConvertConfig2.ini are affected by choices in the website, supporting that file might cause a confusion if the user accidentally forgot about it and got surprised when his website choices are not reflected

    That's exactly what I do (and also because I download on Windows 7). But I also tend to frequently overwrite my settings when updating. :druff: Talking about the standalone package, not the website (I'm using my own local UUP Dump app anyway).

    Then, the website would just not make use of the file at all, only the original one. I'm not talking about automatically generated ini, just a way to have local overrides.

    Hello, Trying to download only the UUP files+updaates for Windows 11, version 26H1 (28000.2525) amd64 for a later conversion. The conversion scripts is included in the downloaded zip file, even if I select the Download UUP set option. This also happens with 25h2. So selecting Download UUP set option causes extra files to be included in the downloaded zip file. Thank you.

    works fine in vivaldi, I'm getting 28000.2525_amd64_en-us_professional_533720b8.zip
    I excluded UUP dump from IDM a few years ago as it was always unreliable

    Interesting. Yes. Excluding UUPDump website in IDM seams solved the problem.
    Thank you.

    I am using IDM for all downloads from uup dump and never had any issue, it started a few builds ago for me.

    But i also don't care about the scripts being downloaded too :D

    "Update for" is only a subset of UUP files for online updating (UUP is used by Windows Update).

    The other one from 03:43 is the complete UUP set and should be used for ISO creation (as it also contains Setup DU and DU for sources). Strangely, I've seen that "Update for" also does not seem to contain the .NET48 package.

    Seems WU servers are having some problems, UUP dump downloads are failing atm!!!

    Example of a very recent build:
    Code:
    Downloading aria2c.exe...
    Verifying aria2c.exe...
    Ready.
    
    Retrieving aria2 script for Microsoft Store Apps...
    
    Download Results:
    gid   |stat|avg speed  |path/URI
    ======+====+===========+=======================================================
    336f9d|OK  |      68B/s|C:/Users/Enthy/Downloads/28000.2605_amd64_en-us_professional_cb51427d/files/aria2_script.10179.txt
    
    Status Legend:
    (OK):download completed.
    
    Unable to retrieve data from Windows Update servers. Reason: WU_REQUEST_FAILED
    If this problem persists, most likely the set you are attempting to download was removed from Windows Update servers.
    
    Press any key to continue . . .
