    MSMG,
    I think we could also add the inclusion of the classic context menu for Windows 11 in Apply Tweaks:

    Enable Classic Context Menu (win11):

    reg.exe add "HKCU\Software\Classes\CLSID\{86ca1aa0-34aa-4e8b-a509-50c905bae2a2}\InprocServer32" /f /ve

    I think I did not translate right, what you said before.

    Then I supposed something that was not needed. If this is already tested and working ... So all right!

    But "AllowUpgradesWithUnsupportedTPMOrCPU" only works on Live Windows (after installation - on the first run), so I put it in settings pass="oobeSystem". It is not necessary in the WinPE session (making a reference to the direct change at boot.wim), as it must be performed, in the case, on the first startup (making a reference to the direct change at Install.wim).

    It's just that I'm out of time for the tests, I'm also late to finalize the merge tests with all the changes that MSMG has made available and, make available to Custom Toolkit. I think Custom Toolkit will be released only with 11.9.

    Yes, I think it can be applied after the first startup, through autounattend, in a clean installation with a untouched ISO. So it will be ready for when you need to do an InPlace Update.

    I may be mistaken in some aspect ...
    But in addition to renaming or deleting the file "appraiserres.dll", for this case of untouched image, in which the tweak has not been applied directly on the indexes of install.wim, it would be one more step done.

    However, in this case, we are putting the focus on the autounattend. Even Rename or Delete could be implemented, since the media was present, then at WinPE (AuditMode) would be the best choice.
    But it would be interesting only in a future installation media prepared for InPlace Update, not in this case of clean installation.

    Only when a TPM 1.2 is present, else it's useless.

    Yes, and even when it is useless, it will not make a difference if it is applied, and the "autounttend.xml" will already be ready, even then, as a generic file to be used with any image.

    Then at least tell the users what it exactly is meant for and that it only works with TPM 1.2 present?

    On unsupported computers, for inplace upgrade, you need moded appraiserres.dll and NO INTERNET connection. (Tested allready)

    In my previous post is a link about "AllowUpgradesWithUnsupportedTPMOrCPU" tweak:
    Based on my tests: if you use win10 with multiple tweaks / changes / mods at system level -> a clean install of win11 is the best option.

    Yes, the diversity of computers setup is such that there will always be other tactics and tricks to make that bypass. So far I caught computers that allowed InPlace Update with only Rename and the registry tweaks. I did not have the pleasure of having to turn off the Internet or put the patched DLL. But the tool of the friend @Enthousiast is there, ready for this need.

    rename/remove/replace appraiserres.dll is for Upgrades only (on ISO for ISO upgrades, in BT~Sources\sources for WU upgrades.
    Is for boot.wim clean installs, when applied to the live OS it can be used for running setup.exe from the ISO:\Sources folder and you get a dual boot situation, better to install the second OS from boot, so the boot entries are done by the second install.
    Is needed for ISO uograde scenarios in which the appraiserres.dll gets replaced by the original one because WU applies the DU for Sources and thereby replacing or adding it to BT~Sources\sources.

    Yes I know that.
    But I only had the experiences with Tweaks (clean installation) and with Rename (Inplace Update).


    Had left this detail pass. It must be why I did not have to disable the internet connection.
    Note: Also, I never use the online update offered at the time of Inplace Update. Because of the updated and customized ISO already prepared that is being used.

    Thnks.

    MSMG, What can be removed from the image so that only Win32 software and all drivers work?

    p.s
    Last time I asked what can be removed at most, but I have concerns that there may be problems with some of the software.

    MSMG, Did you know that MS is planning to block the installation of modified versions of Windows with certificates, I mean the beginning of this is already in Windows 11? What further counter-actions will be taken?

    p.s
    I'm telling you that what we do today could be a huge problem tomorrow.

    Dear MSMG, I would like to integrate some language packs to W11 using your tool. Where could i download them? Actually I have this file: "mul_windows_11_languages_optional_features_x64_dvd_05ae8dae.iso" Is it enough? Where are the needed files? Thank you very much!!
