Is there any easy way to sideload windows store apps when using windows enterprise? I found winget but have run into a whole other can of worms trying to get it to build so I was curious if there is other solutions without having to use windows store. Edit: Ended up using Device Portal in developer settings to install packages that Enterprise otherwise didn't allow.
I don't know where else to ask this question, but I do know that the people here are smart enough to tell how to do it: As you know, During Windows setup you can no longer name the computer during OOBE. So is there any way to bring up the DOS prompt and name the computer during Windows setup. It truly annoys me the idiotic random generated names that the Windows installer now gives to computers.
The 2019 version did not work with HDR and Atmos when playing HDR and Atmos content with Windows Netflix app. Does the 2021 version have all media codecs like Windows 11 have? Are the 2021 version similar UI to Windows 11?
So what is the DOS command to do it and will setup overwrite the name you set, when it auto generates one?
This is not DOS, this is Windows. You can launch regedit, lusermgr.msc, powershell and so on. Whatever... from the command line the command netdom renamecomputer %computername% /newname:<NewName> /reboot:0 I guess should be enough Likely there are many other ways (via cpl, powershell, regedit....)
Yes, but will these renaming ways work, while Windows setup is running (the whole point of wanting to do this). And remember, at this point that the computer doesn't have a name yet. What I am wanting to do is, in Windows setup, name the computer and keep Windows setup from auto generating a computer name.
You do not understand what I am wanting to do. What I am wanting to do is, in Windows setup, name the computer and keep Windows setup from auto generating a computer name. B/c MicroSloth should have never taken away that setup capability. Of course I know how to rename a computer when Windows is running. I think you need to read posts a little more closely.
Did you test what I suggested or yours is just an automated reply? I answered to what you asked. If your question is different now, use unattend.xml, but that is a whole different matter.
haha I think I achieved a real feat: I installed W10 IOT LTSC 2021 x64 without using any third party tools; I don't have MSFT Edge and another mountain of "unnecessary things" is really similar in face and performance to my dear W10 LTSC 2019 only infinitely faster of course that today I retired for good...
@Mister Dev hm I believe it's hard for me to explain how I got this result because in reality I gathered everything I've learned right here at MDL over all these years... every day I research, research and continue researching everywhere is a job that never ends! so via the web it's complicated to explain in summary so far I haven't had any problems, only in a few days of use will I be able to say with certainty if what I did justified all my effort and dedication that's it
I'll have you know that, "wanting to name the machine in setup after MicroSloth has removed that capability", was my original and only question.
