One way is to add these to server - it can be upgraded as server with the official CU. It's server with all the client features: Microsoft-Windows-Client-Desktop-Required-Package Microsoft-Windows-Client-Desktop-Required-WOW64-Package Microsoft-Windows-Client-Features-Package Microsoft-Windows-Client-Features-WOW64-Package Microsoft-Windows-Common-RegulatedPackages-Package Microsoft-Windows-Common-RegulatedPackages-WOW64-Package Microsoft-Windows-Required-ShellExperiences-Desktop-Package
Yes. But it is still Server with duplicated components and too big, isn't it? If as Client, Branding is a hassle. What about ServerRdsh in EnterpriseS\EnterpriseSN structure with preferred Server feature(s)? e.g. Dedup and Server Backup. And up to date with customized CU if necessary. (17763.1\26100.1)
@gailium119 @xinso About managing the definition of Windows components, I wonder if a GitHub repo could be used to host (somehow as a database) all the meta files to define all Windows components over Windows versions/builds? This using JSON files, GitHub branches, releases, tags
hi, maybe someone had similar problem. touchpad works, unfortunately i can't see pointer (cursor). surface laptop 7 (intel) supports win11, but i am using win10.
The goal is to define Windows components in agnostic manner, in a human readable format and manage into a repo. This should provide a way to generate manifest files and/or any others formats and/or databases and documentation for any Windows versions/builds. e.g. let’s try to define a ODBC component, and later a MDAC component.
With TSForge, 15063.0 Starter License can be activated on builds from 14393.0 forward. But, no "WinX menu" on Windows 11. Q1: Is there "Windows 11" Starter leaked? Q2: How to enable "WinX menu" for Windows 10 Starter License on Windows 11?
