I'm referring to 3.1.2.6, the latest version available. I'm pretty sure my imagename returns "xxx LTSC 2019" instead of "xxx LTSC". That's why the extra wildcard after "2019" is needed, else the script treats the image as a non-LTSC build. My image is a Spanish LTSC, converted with the help of the SFV patches posted on this board. Hashes have been verified and they match, so I'm sure the image is OK. It is most probably due to the different language, anyway it was easy to fix so no issues with that. Nice code to output the imagename variable as part of the folder name. Going to implement this. Cheers.
Get the GUI version, start it and in lower left corner use 'CU DOWN' button, it will create a \cu\ sub-folder besides the EXE where the CAB files can be found. Create a folder c:\updates Move both CAB files over. Open Command Prompt (CMD) as admin: Code: Dism /Online /Add-Package /PackagePath:c:\updates\windows10.0-kb4465477-x64.cab /PackagePath:c:\updates\windows10.0-kb4464455-x64.cab
Well then, it turned out that my "meddling with variables" was not the cause of this issue, it is indeed an issue with the script. I may be a n00b, but GodHand silently fixed several issues I reported . Cheers.
Can someone help me to find a working way to disable completely Cortana from 1809 LTSC ? I tried some tweaks found here and there, and no one is able to block or remove everything from Cortana without getting a bunch of errors in event viewer. I know I can wait for the next MSMG Toolkit, but I like to use and follow good tutos. Thanks
Click Start, type gpedit.msc and hit enter. Navigate to Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Search. Locate Allow Cortana and double-click on it to open the relevant policy. Select Disabled. Click Apply and OK to turn off Cortana.
Go to: Modèles d'administration --> Composants Windows --> Rechercher --> Autoriser Cortana Double-clique, selectionne désactivé, clique appliquer et ok. Et c'est bon cortana est désactivé
Thanks, I think that searchUI has been removed when I use my ISO file and NTlite beta to remove Windows Defender and some other components. NTlite was in free mode. I confirm, there is no sub-menu "Rechercher" inside "Composants Windows" .
Now it makes sense. The Optimize-offline script has only just started supporting languages other than en_US. That's the beauty of this being a well designed script. If you have minimal code reading skills, it's pretty easy to make simple modifications or additions and tailor the script to do what you want. Like, in your case, adding another wildcard to LTSC or setting the value on line 1465 to "0." Speaking of script modifications... If you add my last posts 'output folder mod,' I advice you do a quick search of any future updates to make sure that the variables $ScriptVersion, $ImageBuild and $ImageName still exist. For instance "$ScriptVersion" is new to 3.1.2.6, and could easily disappear or get a name change with the next update.
I've got a question regarding activation with KMS_VL_ALL. As far as i know, that tool activates Windows for only 180 days, so you have to reactivate every 6 months. Is there any way to activate Windows permanently with this tool? What happens if you forget to reactivate Windows after 180 days? Aren't you able to boot into Windows anymore, or is Windows just "not activated" and you can boot into Windows and run KMS_VL_ALL again and everything is fine again?
KMS_VL_ALL by @abbodi1406 creates auto-renewal task for 7 days, so every 7 days the 180 days period is being refreshed into infinity.
