How do I get ToolKitHelper to show a list of component names that can be removed? I used to be able to do this by running ToolkitHelper.exe with an invalid name specified, however, now I'm only getting the following when I do this: ToolKitHelper used to show a list of valid component names. Alternatively, is there a text file updated with every iteration of the Toolkit that contains this list? Thanks
You need to specify the ImageMountPath along with /? to get the list of components For example if your Toolkit folder is C:\Toolkit and the select index is 1 ToolKitHelper.exe C:\Toolkit\Mount\Install\1 /? For Templates check in Bin\Lists\ToolkitHelper_Templates folder
This thread is not the right one to ask such a question bro. Look at this thread https://forums.mydigitallife.net/th...on-automated-batch-script.68791/#post-1217467
Hello, I recently began using MSMG toolkit to customize and Win10 ISO and am having a strange issue. Once I go through the source image, remove apps/items I don't want included and create a bootable USB, the actual installation appears to contain only the items I intended to remove from the image. Groove music, xbox live, Office etc... Virtually nothing else is in the image. Clearly I am doing something fundamentally wrong. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks,
In the removal menu if you have "+" on the left of the item then it will be included. "-" means it'll be removed. You might be doing vice-versa.
Thank you for the response. Yeah that was the first thing I checked. I actually went through a second time and created a new ISO to make sure. Definitely had the minus "-" next to the packages. Problem persists
I think I now understand why the error in NVSlimmer. I created another image, keeping these four components: WindowsStoreClient DesktopAppInstaller ServicesStoreEngagement WindowsStoreApp When I pressed the Install NvCpl button, Microsoft Store was launched. So NVSlimmer isn't actually installing NVCpl, it is just redirecting the user to the Microsoft Store. I believe I showed that NVCpl was installed even without the above four components. So my question is do I actually need them? On my system, only the Nvidia drivers need an app - and this installed without the above four components.
If using PowerShell for apps installation is OK for you, then you don't really need all these bloat. I beleive M$ don't give to us reasonable choice. Just cut off, trim, chop away all their nonsence. Installed? That's all we interested in. ------ My previous suggestion was about easy installation through UI (I mean offline installation of ANY apps, when you have *.appxbundle). Seems like it requires too much bloat to be kept, and no guarantees it will work. Right? It would be great if one day someone would create an offline client for easy apps installation offline, by one click, closely integrated with OS and UI, with new associations for file extensions and working "Open with..." menu . Some kind of Store replacement for offline *.appxbundle usage. Just a dream for trimmed OS.
I intend to create my normal image with 19044 soon. Then I shall begin testing, as I prepare to erase 18363 in favour of 19044.
Nah... I downloaded them from a third party site when my son reported the errors with a couple of games. Found the answer on steam. I was using 10.4 of the toolkit at the time, The only reason I recreated an image with 11.6 was that I could remove a couple more things from my image. But the WMP files were not retained there either. My setupcomplete script copies the two files I need. About 3 months ago I raised an issue with you regarding webp. It has been stated that W10 1809 LTSC can view webp images natively. Neither of the images created with 10.4 or 11.6 can. No program in Windows 10 can open them. I have to use third party programs Icaros and Imageglass. You indicated you would check it out. Have you had a chance to look at that?
I do not know if winget (DesktopAppInstaller) works right without WindowsStoreApp. But if you have the opportunity... tries to install NVIDIA Control Panel through Winget. # NVIDIA Control Panel [9NF8H0H7WMLT] The cmd command is this: winget install --id 9NF8H0H7WMLT --source msstore --silent --accept-package-agreements --accept-source-agreements I did just that in the last few weeks. I jumped from 18363 to 19044 I'm having a very good experience, nothing to complain so far. I updated yesterday to 19044.1379, all right too. I even removed the components through the menus (toolkithelper) and even though this version is not officially supported by Toolkit, I did not have the problems mentioned by friend @zero cool root. My image is also pt-br.
What I meant was only in recent Toolkit versions I started retaining those codecs while removing Windows Media Player. I had replied about the WebP issue, may be you didn't noticed it I think. https://forums.mydigitallife.net/threads/msmg-toolkit.50572/page-1030#post-1693041 You need to first add WebP appx and then enable the Windows Photo Viewer, this will enable you choose Windows Photo Viewer as the default viewer in Open With Window, also the explorer thumbnails too works.
