Whilst a good idea, that would be like tring to teach a dog with no legs to scale the empire state building. The boys don't care about privacy or online safety. They believe everything big tech, the government and MSM tell them. They would never bother. Always too busy with watching drivel on TV or BS movies to be bothered with making ISOs. They were living here until recently so when I built an image it went on all PCs. Whilst I care and want to protect them, really it's now their choice and it's time this mum let go.
This situation that you commented, I understand how it is. It is the life of this generation has an ingenuity that lasts a lot and maturity that never arrives.
Tiger did you forget I made a request to MSMG to include abbodi's ESD2WIM-WIM2ESD-wimlib utility? He did include it and it is working great. Cheers.
From original ISO I select only one edition(Win 10 Professional) and remove some components. 1. Is it safe to answer 'Y' on question "Do you want cleanup Image folder"? (I ask because on some youtube tutorial hear opinion that function may not work correct...) 2. This function("Do you want cleanup Image folder") delete all unselected editions before making result image, and the final image will contain only one edition(Win 10 Pro)? 3. If I answer 'N' on question "Do you want cleanup Image folder" - final image contains all editions, despite allow to install only one(Win 10 Pro)?
How long usually after the release of the official Windows image(September Update and etc), an updated version of MSMG Toolkit appears?
12.6.7 says it's compatible with all versions, so I don't think we need to wait for an update? Windows 11 v21H2/v22H2 (All Editions)
Yes, it is safe. The CleanUp first option from the Apply Menu maybe not safe. No. You need to say Yes to the trimm question. You need to say Yes to the trimm question to cut all unwanted editions.
Most of them are released related to updates of the second Tuesday of the month, but this is not a rule. You can use one off the supported ones, Integrate whta you want, then the recent updates and successfully remove the components.
inTerActionVRI, thanks for answers! what difference between unsafe "Cleanup Source Images" (first option from the Apply Menu) and safe "Do you want cleanup Image folder"(after choosing second option from the Apply Menu) ?
I found something that is not very convenient and may cause an mistake when choosing componets to remove. [3] Remove -> [1] Remove Windows Components -> [1] Select Windows Components inside this menu I successively select every subsection (Internet, Multimedia, Network, ....) and at first unselect all components, and after select just few what I want to save the problem with unselecting all happens on subsections [6] System and [7] System Apps inside [6] System I save "Security Center" that depends on Windows Defender(see on next step) when I open [7] System Apps and unselect all this affects on previous step "Security Center", and after I select "Windows Defender" I must remeber to return on previous step and select "Security Center" again...
Depends on whether or not they are playing JAVA or Bedrock. If JAVA, they don't need the store components but will need a MS account to log in from the launcher. You don't need to be logged into windows under the MS account. For Bedrock you need the new launcher and I don't know anything about that since I only play JAVA. I made a new MS account just for the migration and it's used for nothing else.
i have been trying to get winget to work on ltsc build but i cant , i did some search and trial and error and the best i could do is add the dependencies but the final gis this error : Code: PS C:\Windows\system32> Add-AppxPackage -Path "C:\Users\tr27\Downloads\Microsoft.VCLibs.x64.14.00.Desktop.appx" PS C:\Windows\system32> Add-AppxPackage -Path "C:\Users\tr27\Downloads\Microsoft.UI.Xaml.2.8.appx" PS C:\Windows\system32> Add-AppxProvisionedPackage -Online -PackagePath "C:\Users\tr27\Downloads\Microsoft.DesktopAppInstaller_2021.1207.2333.0_neutral_~_8wekyb3d8bbwe.Msixbundle" -LicensePath "C:\Users\tr27\Downloads\7b91bd4a0be242d6aa8e8da282b26297_License1.xml" -Verbose VERBOSE: Target Image Version 10.0.19044.2006 Add-AppxProvisionedPackage : The parameter is incorrect.

The 1st one remove several things, not only temporary files. Gives ghost SFC error. Also, a lot of people don't need the things that are removed here. I didn't need to. But my life gets easier, keeping these things to not have problems with Inplace Update. The 2nd one removes only temporary files created during customization process.
Put the dependencies in the same command line. When use cmd DISM command the sintaxe changes a litle bit to /PackagePath: /DependencyPath: /LicensePath: Try this PS command: Code: Add-AppxProvisionedPackage -Online -PackagePath "C:\Users\tr27\Downloads\Microsoft.DesktopAppInstaller_2021.1207.2333.0_neutral_~_8wekyb3d8bbwe.Msixbundle" -DependencyPath "C:\Users\tr27\Downloads\Microsoft.VCLibs.x64.14.00.Desktop.appx" -DependencyPath "C:\Users\tr27\Downloads\Microsoft.UI.Xaml.2.8.appx" -LicensePath "C:\Users\tr27\Downloads\7b91bd4a0be242d6aa8e8da282b26297_License1.xml" -Verbose Hope it is right.
this was the result : Code: Add-AppxProvisionedPackage: A parameter cannot be found that matches parameter name 'DependencyPath'. i think the dependencies are installed properly because when it used to ask for them before , now after installing the dep, i got that edit : i just found this in some related problem and i think this was the issue " Add-AppxProvisionedPackage: the first command provision the app for all "future" new user accounts the rest install the app for the current user it's easier if you could run the first command against mounted install.wim image prior installation, in that case the app will be installed for all users so can i implement this in new msmg ?
