MSMG ToolKit

ok waiting then thanks for all Master

If I were to customize a Windows 10 ISO with MSMG, how risky would it be to use NTLite for online removals on top of that? MSMG excels at offline component removal, but NTLite can do online removals. And it can also remove components after updates. Once the OS is installed, MSMG is no longer useful.

 

You will use the Toolkit to customize your updated installation media. After that you do what you need, on your machine.
When you need to make a clean installation, you must create another ISO. This will always save you time. So you will always need the Toolkit, or any other installation media customization tool.

I'd rather disable Windows Update completely.
Whenever I create an updated ISO, I do the InPlace upgrade. For me, it's the best way to update without the return of the components already removed.

 

Thanks for the info, but I am specifically asking if it's safe to use NTLite on top of a W10 that's been customized by MSMG.

I don't want to reinstall Windows from fresh media every time I want to install cumulative/feature updates.

 

Sorry For Asking a Question => Are you the one getting trolled at reboot pro since AnonVendetta Requested his account removal there many times but admins were ignoring his requests for account removal.

 

InPlace Upgrade will do the same thing as installing Cumulative / Feature Updates. But already customized.

Yes, you will be able to use Ntlite in the same way. Maybe you can not get it, if through Toolkit Tweaks you block something that makes it difficult for Ntlite to perform Windows Update / Upgrade. But it's just an assumption. I think you're going to be successful. What is obscure is the method used by removing the components through the NTLITE. If it is dism or powershell, the removal is gross. At the Toolkit the toolkithelper makes a finest treatment removal, maintaining pre-requirements.

First, so you have security, test in VirtualBox or VMware.

Here, everyone who accompanies this thread is making your own tests. As I've never seen anyone asking this, you will be the pioneer to bring more information about your experience.

What I can actually say is that I once used the updates via Ntlite and is the same as manual mode. This reinstalls the components again and even if the Ntlite does the automatic removal of the components that were no longer present before the upgrade, still messes the already applied tweaks. Therefore, I already dispense the use of direct update (for my personal machine). It's good to make that clear.

Hugs and we look forward to your feedback on the tests. It will be of great value, this contribution with one more method.

 

Yes, I was "banned"/deleted from reboot.pro, but it was at my request, not because of something I did. I still browse that forum, but I'm not a registered user there anymore.

Anyway, what does that have to do with MSMG/MDL?

 

Guys, I left something at Custom Toolkit, which is to facilitate my tests, but it may be interesting to you too.
Simply start using menu 1 -> 3 and choose ISO with which you will work.
Have your packs updated and with the folder structure updated for Toolkit 11.8 (recently changes made by MSMG).
The custom registry folder also has to be duplicated w10 and w11 folders. I put a bypass for that. Instead of having 2 equal folders, leave only one with the name w10_w11. For Inbox Apps it is also possible but probably the licenses should have their folders separated for W81, W10 and W11. @MSMG, joining the folders will release plenty of space in mega.nz. Files hashsum are equal, for both w10 and w11.
If you notice any error or jump integration, in the process execution, it is due to some missing pack.

But basically it is:
Press the letter P in the main menu and watch the process.

If you do not want to integrate something, just change the folder name so that the script can not find the pack. Example: If you do not want to integrate inboxapps change the name of the folder from: ".\Packs\Apps" to: ".\Packs\Apps_".

Automation goes up to, Virtual Create Image Index Editions and ISO finalization.
Download "VirtualCreate_ImageIndexEditions.zip" that is in my signature to the folder where the "toolkit.cmd" file is.
Below is the list of packs that will be integrated:
Removes Components by Preset Custom Selection.

So that you can take the test.
Download "virtualcreate_imageindexeditions.zip" that is in my signature to the folder where the "toolkit.cmd" file is.
Below the list of packs that will be integrated, the Tweaks that will be applied and the components that will be removed by the Preset Custom Selection.

So that you can take the test.

At this point the removal of the components will be by Toolkithelper list. Leave your favorite list.
In this method the dependency filter will be applied. So, according to Build, there will be differences.

Sent an 2021-10-03 New Custom Toolkit updated file attached in the link above.

Spoiler: CHANGELOG 2021-10-03

*Fixed ManualSetup by MSMG suggestion;
*:SaveSource session - WinRE minor fix
*The names of the custom ISOs were getting the name of UUP Dump ISO. In this case, then the Auto Name was directed to the custom ISOs. It is a function that was already available at the Custom Toolkit at the ":Makeiso" session.
*Automated Removal Components process changed from "PreSet Custom Selection" to "ToolkitHelper List".
Note: In this method the dependency filter will be applied. So, according to Build, there will be differences.

Spoiler: CHANGELOG 2021-10-01

Merged made with the Official Toolkit 11.8 from 2021-09-19 to 2021-09-29.

1. Since my code writing method with the idea of reducing lines was making complicated the merge tasks. As the code was drowned in complications, difficult to readability for other devs. I decided to twist my code, in the sense of wiping. Expanded parts of the code that were in just one line for multiple lines in order to improve the reading of it. Mainly in the "for (loop) command thanks to a tip learned in the @abbodi1406 scripts.
And, of course learning every day with @MSMG. In addition to the solutions brought in the Toolkit script, he always answers some people asks that brings new doubts and new learning.

2. In Inbox Apps:
2.1. A detail was modified to indicate what is not present in the packs, before continuing with inboxapps integration.
2.2. Fixed - A problem created by custom toolkit modifications by implementing the multi-selection system of inboxapps that repeated the final optimization that should be once for each index, but was repeating by the amount of apps selected times the quantity of indexes. As much as the whole process was automatic, this caused a very accentuated delay.

3. Added - Condition for integration of Sun Valley Icons Skin Pack only for Builds below 21348.

4. Some minor code upgrade on Tweaks and...
4.1. Added - Simple Bypass Hardware Requisites Checking for InPlace Upgrade.

5. WMP Skin for x64 now apply in WMP Program Files(x86) folder too.

6. Adicionada uma opção de Custom PreSet para "Windows 7 Components Experience Edition" baseada na lista de componentes a serem mantido que o MSMG disponibilizou.

7. Fixed Edge Chromium Integration for w81.

OBS: Supplementary information for Devs: After the implementation of Windows 11 support I found some bugs related to the use of subsequent conditions of "not equal" associated with the use of "else" in the same block (NEQ NEQ ELSE). It does not work.
Ex: The use (neq w10 neq w11) so that a block block could work for both W7 and W81 and an "else" for when w10 or w11, but this does not work:

In this case, what comes in the else block is completely ignored not being executed. I suppose a conflict occurs.

Code:

       if "%SelectedSourceOS%" neq "w10" if "%SelectedSourceOS%" neq "w11" (
           echo.Performing Tasks for w7 or w81...
       ) else (
           echo.Performing Tasks for w10 or w11...
       )
       

To correct this, the possible way is just as below.

Code:

       if "%SelectedSourceOS%" neq "w10" if "%SelectedSourceOS%" neq "w11" (
           echo.Performing Tasks for w7 or w81...
       )
       if "%SelectedSourceOS%" neq "w7" if "%SelectedSourceOS%" neq "w81" (
           echo.Performing Tasks for w10 or w11...
       )
       

8. VirtualCreate_ImageIndexEditions.zip (2021-09-20 updated with @abbodi1406 "uup-converter-wimlib-72u"

Spoiler: CHANGELOG 2021-08-25

Merge made with the fourth version of the Official Toolkit 11.7 on the day 2021-08-23.

1. Fixed "Sun Valley Icons Skin" integration:
* for w7 and w81, thnks to @Bira suggestion.
* for w10 build 18362 by changing geq "18363" to geq "18362".
* Added "Windows Photo Viewer Skin" and "Icons Skin" in the Custom Integrate for W7 and W81 menu.
NOTE: "Windows Media Player Skin" break Windows Media Player for W7 and W81.
Thnks by tests made by @Bira.

2. Added the condition to Integrate Windows Portable Devices
:: Checking whether exists N Editions supported for Windows Portable Devices Integration are selected as source.
If only non-N editions are selected, the following message will be displayed:

3. VirtualCreate_ImageIndexEditions.zip (2021-08-24 updated with @abbodi1406 "uup-converter-wimlib-69"

Thnks!

 

@MSMG , If I want to upgrade CoreSingleLanguage (or CoreCountrySpecific), Toolkit has not provide infomation.

And

When I upgrade SKU Version (IoTEnterprise), Because My Image Display name is Simplified Chinese, So I upgrade later, image display name was change <undefined>, But image SKU is my specified.
This is a bug but not lead to toolkit crash.

I try add some SKU version information to ToolKit:

Code:

    if "%TargetEdition%" equ "CoreSingleLanguage" (
        set "Flag=CoreSingleLanguage"
        set "Edition=CoreSingleLanguage"
        set "Name=Windows %OSID% Home Single Language"
        set "Description=Windows %OSID% Home Single Language"
        set "DisplayName=Windows %OSID% Home Single Language"
        set "DisplayDescription=Windows %OSID% Home Single Language"
    )

    if "%TargetEdition%" equ "CoreCountrySpecific" (
        set "Flag=CoreCountrySpecific"
        set "Edition=CoreCountrySpecific"
        set "Name=Windows %OSID% Home China"
        set "Description=Windows %OSID% Home China"
        set "DisplayName=Windows %OSID% Home China"
        set "DisplayDescription=Windows %OSID% Home China"
    )

    if "%TargetEdition%" equ "IoTEnterprise" (
        set "Flag=IoTEnterprise"
        set "Edition=IoTEnterprise"
        set "Name=Windows %OSID% IoT Enterprise"
        set "Description=Windows %OSID% IoT Enterprise"
        set "DisplayName=Windows %OSID% IoT Enterprise"
        set "DisplayDescription=Windows %OSID% IoT Enterprise"
    )

    if "%TargetEdition%" equ "IoTEnterpriseS" (
        set "Flag=IoTEnterpriseS"
        set "Edition=IoTEnterpriseS"
        set "Name=Windows %OSID% IoT Enterprise LTSC"
        set "Description=Windows %OSID% IoT Enterprise LTSC"
        set "DisplayName=Windows %OSID% IoT Enterprise LTSC"
        set "DisplayDescription=Windows %OSID% IoT Enterprise LTSC"
    )

    if "%TargetEdition%" equ "IoTEnterpriseN" (
        set "Flag=IoTEnterpriseN"
        set "Edition=IoTEnterpriseN"
        set "Name=Windows %OSID% IoT Enterprise N"
        set "Description=Windows %OSID% IoT Enterprise N"
        set "DisplayName=Windows %OSID% IoT Enterprise N"
        set "DisplayDescription=Windows %OSID% IoT Enterprise N"
    )

    if "%TargetEdition%" equ "IoTEnterpriseSN" (
        set "Flag=IoTEnterpriseSN"
        set "Edition=IoTEnterpriseSN"
        set "Name=Windows %OSID% IoT Enterprise N LTSC"
        set "Description=Windows %OSID% IoT Enterprise N LTSC"
        set "DisplayName=Windows %OSID% IoT Enterprise N LTSC"
        set "DisplayDescription=Windows %OSID% IoT Enterprise N LTSC"
    )

 

MSMG, You must have a lot of errors, the window pops up when removing via RemovePkgsList for Windows 11.

 

The window appears at the very end with some code in it.

 

@MSMG
could the text being displayed when a component does not exsist be changed from
Component : ZuneVideo, has been already removed or not exist...
to
Component : ZuneVideo, has been already removed or is not present in the image
or,
ZuneVideo, has been already removed or does not exist...
also
fool i am coppied and pasted from the templates folder for toolkit-helper templates and forgot to remove
content dilivery manager from the list,
what impact will happen since it is now being removed?
will it impact setup?
also same with the windows firewall component, it says it has been removed but has it removed the component?
I would like to note,
that
the toolkit archive is alot smaller now compared to releaces past,


thanks for the toolkit!
