    Hi, how to ruin hours of effort an a perfectly lite running Windows 10 :

    Go to Update (disabled with MSMG), see there is a Visual Redistributable Package available (I have some games that doesn't work...) and go a bit to fast...

    On reboot, Microsoft Piece of Edge is there, Login Screen, and all the s**t I removed...

    It was not only a Visual Update, also some other stuff, like a "Servicing Stack"

    I hate me o_O

    Removing Windows Mixed Reality on Windows 10 18363.2274 makes remote desktop unavailable (black screen after connected), is WMR required for remote desktop?

    I'm not surprised this happens, it's just that I've been using the latest toolkit version at any given time on an unsupported build and haven't had such issues, everything worked as expected.
    By chance, is Cortana needed for search in start menu to work?

    @MSMG

    esddecrypt.exe present in the bin folder is well outdated - it is a version of 2014-11-05.

    Abbodi does not use Dism++CUI.exe only the recent esddecrypt.exe version of 2019-06-28, present in the esd-decrypter-wimlib-63.7z.

    Is there any special reason for using Dism++CUI.exe? Or was it just the need of that moment, in which was developed the converting Encrypted ESD code for Toolkit?

    For 1904x, the Cortana is separated and the Start menu Search works without it.

    Removing the SearchApp present in the System Apps section will break the Start menu Search feature, from your above list, you haven't removed the Search App, will test and update.

    @MSMG I'll test v13.0 on the same .2311 image, see if it's any different.

    It was added at the start, right now there are no encrypted ESD released so just left it, will update/replace with the new one.

    2311 is untested, may or may not break the WU for the next CU.

    No worries, I'm merely playing around with what is currently available. No production quality is expected when using unsupported versions.
