I know this has been discussed before, but searching the topic, I can't really find (anecdotal) evidence for or against the following: When installing LTSC 2021, seeing as there will be no feature updates for this release, 1) could keeping Windows Updates active (still) pose problems installing security updates? 2) could this reinstall removed components?
For me, updates just won't install, when using Windows Update from Settings. And I did not disable it intentionally. I remember someone has mentioned the same behavior for LTSC 2021 earlier in this thread.
That rarely happens to me (all of my systems have modified images) but when it does I install over the top with a modified image based on the new update. That usually fixes the OS and allows future updates to install as well.
@abbodi1406 there is a chance to provide the updated folder VCRuntime including 14.31.31005 for MSMG toolkit ? thanks in advance!!!
@inTerActionVRI @GreenGremlin @nosirrahx So it _should_ work, but fails sometimes?? I didn't use any of the tweaks, but I did remove quite a few components, but I can't show here which until I do it again. (Which is what I hate about MSMG: no list of components and other options used is automatically saved to the target, and logs are removed when quitting. It's quite annoying imho.
Its kind of unpredictable. I have had bone stock systems fail to update and systems hacked to bare bones update without issue across multiple years.
Before Save Source you can copy the "Logs" and "CBS" folders to some safe place. I do not know if there is removal of some component or range of components that break Windows Update operation.
Did you check the new link on the official page? MSMG posted warm, brand new things there. I think these should be the latest versions. I may be wrong. But that are new files are. I already compared sizes and hashs.
i did it , but most of the files can not be downloaded , cause here is an error and you could not finish the download
For those having problems regarding LTSC 2021 WU . Pl be sure dosvc service is enabled & not removed by any of there tweak. Plus all other services which are dependencies of wu ie cryptsvc , bits , wuaserv etc etc many many other services too required for full final WU working on your machine. For Those who worry for there privacy WU doesnt matter for them as they know how they can deal with WU in many other ways. [ Either Let M$ Drive you & installed M$ OS on your machine as Well or else Let Make Yourself That much strong Enough to Let M$ know that You can drive there OS very well & there no any mean of any type of interference by M$ on your Machine] Decide yourself & be concrete for final conclusion.
It is true. I had to try to download a few times. I do the downloads, always in zip packet creation mode. But I just had to download the files that did not extract from the corrupted zip.
I modified LTSC 2021 version, and it working fine here. Updates are installing,sometimes the update fail but if i try again and restart the computer works. Just install the update and restart the computer and will be installed.
