Ah MSMG, what a wonderful job you did again, so much work done! We are lucky to have you. Thanks again! Cheers.
@MSMG 1. Please advise how to proceed, according to the v11.7. Do I need to use on LTSC 2019: [2] Integrate Windows Setup Media Updates Because current LCU is v2091, but current SetupMedia update is v1990 The Setup file may appear not equal, and I have a chance that Windows installation may fail in case I don't use option [2] 2. What if I (now) / you (later in Toolkit) reverse the sequence of operations like this: [1] Integrate Windows Setup Media Updates [2] Integrate WHD General Updates

@MSMG thank you for another greate release! a question, since there is a bugg with the firewall component, will it be reinabled in the next version? is this bugg fixable? feature request if possible. the ability to remove the offline files feature? thank you yet again! also, off topic, I hope your recovery is going well? covid is a nasty blite on this univirce. Majid
@mhussain This is only mine opinion, but I think the idea with Firewall removal is not good. At least, when you use any component relative to the Store or (even offline) Apps installation. My very old experience on standard Live OS have previously demonstrated extremely deep relationship of the Apps environment & Firewall. I think, Windows Firewall (potentially) might be removed only when Store (or any Store component) & Apps are completely absent and will never be used at all. Furthermore, the last issues with Firewall removal show the impact even on regular Desktop program installations (without Store removal, with existing Store backend components). So... My short advise - do not remove Firewall component and diactivate it using standard OS methods. Non-standard methods are also useful (disabling Firewall services and drivers). But remember this always impact on Apps installation, even using offline methods. So enable them when doing install, then disable.
@ingviowarr full agreement, one of the best Windows applications; Well personally I never thought about removing it only my 2 cents ...
A bit misunderstanding here. I hate all Windows bloat = spyware, including so-called "security" parts and Windows Firewall too. The problem only we can't remove some parts and do not have a breakage. I need only CORE of this s**tty Windows to install programs I need. (And that is until I haven't switched to Linux yet.) @MSMG - Sorry for offtopic. Really interested to know your opinion about Linux. Did you ever tried it? How good is it to you?
@MSMG Hi, I successfully imported "MediaFeaturePack" into the image, but when I'm trying to install iCloud - it still says - that the MediaFeaturePack is not in system.. What could be the reason?.. maybe imported files - not all? what is missing? https://forums.mydigitallife.net/attachments/1111-png.55571/
ok I understand you, well here I myself already used linux long but the eternal problem regarding games that makes us return to windows always unfortunately I think
@Tiger-1 The "Wine" and "Proton" for Steam are so powerful today. So almost no significant problems here. For me the main Linux issues are: poor NVIDIA support (due to a closed code) and big-soft incompatibility (Adobe, Corel, Autodesk, Pixologic, Foundry and so on).
yep I agree again, here I have same issue with AMD video drivers (NO more drivers for W8.1 since 2016) for other aplications no issues until now so M$FT wins once again
You can delete it using DISM Metod for now: Code: ; Offline Files: Microsoft-Windows-OfflineFiles-WOW64-Package Microsoft-Windows-OfflineFiles-UI-Package Microsoft-Windows-OfflineFiles-Package Microsoft-Windows-OfflineFiles-merged-Package
I agree. The Firewall component is more than just the firewall and is handling some other networking bits. When I've removed it my VPN software would stop working. I think disabling the service would break it also, You can turn it off under security and that doesn't hurt anything.
@MSMG I still have issue with Win32Calc pack with x86 build. When I start the calculator, the number 1 is shown, when the number 0 should be shown. This issue doesn't happen with x64 build. Shall continue to use the older version v10.0.14393.0 until this is fixed.
