I'm getting a version mismatch error when trying to integrate the x64 SSU and LCU from this post (MSU format): https://forums.mydigitallife.net/th...-21h1-2-vb_release.80763/page-16#post-1571109 Source image: en-us_windows_10_enterprise_ltsc_2021_x64_dvd_d289cf96.iso This is what @inTerActionVRI suggested to do, so that i could bump up the base version, to enable component removals to work as intended (all this effort just to fully purge Edge is getting on my GD nerves!). What other updates am I missing besides these 2? The installed version of this image in a VM is 19044.1288, no updates installed whatsoever. Yet for some reason the TK identifies it as being 19041. I also manually installed these 2 MSU files in the VM, first the SSU and then the LCU. Both installed without issues, and according to winver the version of the OS bumped up accordingly to 19044.1766. Why do these updates work on a live system, but fail when integrating offline? Edit: I didnt integrate any features, language packs, etc. I just told TK to mount the source image, then went straight to the update integration step.
Yes there was no issue with SSU or CU, it was the Windows 11 v22H2 update file naming due to which the script didn't give the proper input to the PSFX extractor to extract the files. Now It's working fine here.
Where the Toolkit is identifying the source as 19041.1, can you post some screenshot. To integrate updates just copy these files to <WHD\w10\x64\10.0.19041> folder Code: windows10.0-kb5014699-x64_1807d6b5df2947669d4cb00d322969ccd43030a3.msu windows10.0-kb5007401-x64_f1bf61d834bb8d9951c7efa23454643daae195b0.cab windows10.0-kb5013887-x64-ndp48_cee9944aef2e07c7ca85b5ca1d9d67ecdf7a9abf.msu windows10.0-kb5010524-x64_39a338080df5a19e491a1f19ac57117cb8944cba.cab - Select the source using Toolkit - Choose [4] Integrate Updates -> [2] Integrate WHD Update Pack -> [2] Integrate to Windows Setup Install Image -> - Remove the components - Apply changes to the source. Make sure you use the latest ToolKitHelper_Preview.exe by renaming it to ToolKitHelper.exe and copy it to Toolkit's Bin folder and overwrite it.
I didn't use WHD to download the files. I guess you missed my link in my previous post, they are just MSU files that were downloaded from that linked post. I was using the preview exe, but renamed to just ToolKitHelper.exe Edit: the update files you mentioned are specifically the ones I need for LTSC 2021 (already dropped the ISO name I'm using, so let's not even get into me not properly establishing my source)?
I'm honestly getting quite exasperated trying to resolve this. Esp after I've been told that I need to integrate stupid updates into the image, just to remove components. I'm just about ready to say f the TK and move on, it's becoming more time consuming than it's worth. Nothing personal against you or an insult to your work, but i don't see how you and your folks here at MDL put up with this headache. Constantly having to test and fail and re-test, ad nauseum to infinity and beyond. Proof that your TK is misidentifying my LTSC version as 19041, when it is in fact 19044.1288:
No offence, but I honestly don't think you realise how fortunate and lucky we all are to have @MSMG work and produce this magnificent ToolKit for us. He also works and uses his spare time to produce this ToolKit. He isn't paid for working on the ToolKit and I can imagine that comments like yours can be truly disheartening for @MSMG to read. Think about what you say and how you say things in the future. We are all human beings at the end of the day.
You may be right. I'm not disrespecting his work. And nothing is perfect. But it seems to take alot of patience to use it. Which is a character trait I'm not known for. All I know is, I'm told that I have to integrate updates before component removals will work as expected. That user gave a link to a post, containing updates that would supposedly increase my LTSC's build # high enough to make it "compatible" with TK's removal process. So I go to try to integrate at least the SSU and LCU as a bare minimum. Those updates apply fine on a real installed OS but won't integrate offline. They must be compatible or they wouldn't have installed. I'm putting in effort to try to get this to work, but it's not helping that suggestions from some users here have produced unexpected results.
Since you're complaining over free s**t why you don't put the effort to do your own trial and error, or you know, since you're so entitled, go and code your own solution?
@AnonVendetta, such a "problem" is obvious only to you. Stop writing nonsense at last. You have already been explained several times what you need to do. And WHDownloader has nothing to do with it. You need to put the all updates on the path: Toolkit\WHD\w10\x64\10.0.19041\ and follow the Toolkit menu: - Select the source using Toolkit : [1] Source -> [1] Select Source from <DVD> folder - Choose [2] Integrate -> [4] Windows Updates -> [2] Integrate WHD Update Pack -> [1] Integrate WHD General Updates -> [2] Integrate to Windows Setup Install Image - Remove the components: [3] Remove -> 1) Select components for removal: [1] Select Windows Components -> [1] Internet -> [2] + Edge Chromium Browser 2) Remove selecting components^: [2] Start Removing Windows Components - Apply changes to the source: [5] Apply ->
You say WHDownloader has nothing to do with it. So, why does the TK have 2 folders from which updates can be processed? The presence of a WHD folder would imply that updates downloaded via WHD are meant to be placed there. But since I merely downloaded 2 MSU files via a Web Browser, the regular updates folder (non-WHD) seemed to be the logical location. Anyway, I'll try the 4 files he listed. Although I have no idea where to source them from, since only the filenames were given, no links. And I have no idea how he came to the conclusion that those 4 in particular we're the ones I need to use. I was never asking anyone here for a handout, regardless. You say I should do the work, and I'm perfectly willing to do so. But it's quite hard when you know what you need to do and where you want to go. However, you are told that updates need to be integrated, with no hints given in regards to how to determine the appropriate ones for yourself.
Hello again. Windows is still fetching KB5014699 when running Windows Update. Here are the update files inside WHD\w10\x64\10.0.19041: windows10.0-kb5003791-x64_14e7547b08f1b29cae6e41c9f7da5f1347d9955c.msu Windows10.0-KB5007401-x64.cab Windows10.0-KB5013887-x64-NDP48.msu Windows10.0-KB5014032-x64.msu Windows10.0-KB5014699-x64.msu Am I missing some needed update file? I'm retrying it again now to see if I missed some error message. EDIT: I added SSU-19041.1737-x64.cab based on recent replies. Here goes nothing. EDIT 2: Same result.
I for one, support and am greatful for @MSMG and his toolkit. cheers @MSMG ! question if i never wish to use windows update, can i just remove components with out integrateing cus?
If I understand you correctly, Windows Update re-offers a CU that has already been integrated into the image. I believe this is due to the fact that at the end the image was cleaned with the /ResetBase parameter (resetting the component base). If I'm wrong, let @MSMG correct me. This action is not required, since the SSU is already included in the "Windows10.0-KB5014699-x64.msu" file.
I recently got a Office 365 subscription but the Store app version refuses to install as do the separate apps for word excel etc. Any other Store app works fine including games and Xbox related things. I've been meaning to make a new image once 12.3 come out but just to make sure if anyone happens to know what I should avoid removing to have 100% compatibility. Code: 0x80131500 refers to some service being turned off but it's on. The normal win32 installer works fine but installs a bunch of bloat which I'd rather avoid if possible.
this same thing happened to me on a stock windows installation all stock. i manually downloaded KB5014699 install it. and windows got updated to latest. but checking windows updates it redownloaded the KB5014699 again.. or maybe not because i checked data usage and it didnt change. but the download progress was on... i had installed previos update manually and didnt face this.. so reading that i assume its related to KB5014699 bug
