Thanks for ur help, i agree with u, windows 11 is su*k, but its interface look good, i also prefer windows 10, but im trying to make my install.wim atleast for 2 years, i dont want to get oldfashioned with the os, and dont want to debloat it everytime i want to use it, so i guess lil busy with windows 11 install.wim for 2 years usage worth the headache... i guess... and s*it it really give me headache... alots..
@FriedTempe if i were you, I would wait for the next version of toolkit with the windows update removal support and make a new image. with the wu components removed. no chance of the install getting scupperd. you can doo an inplace upgrade to the next edition of windows via another custom iso made with a future version of toolkit.. Majid
MSMG next update will have Windows Update removal? Wow thats great... cant wait for it... thanks majid
@FriedTempe An interesting thing for you to see, knowing the names of the services and searching for .reg files to disable the services is: open gpedit (not for home editions) and read the services there. Deactivate, reactivate, break the system (hehehe). Then with the names of the services noted down you can search how to disable with reg file. About importing your .reg files, explore the custom folder, inside it there is a tree of folders for you to place your custom .reg files. With the image in service (being edited) you can use the Customize Menu which has an option to import Log Files. I think it's simpler than using the Tools Menu that was suggested by our friend @mhussain.
I dont see gpedit in my windows, i am using home edition.. my laptop cant handle windows pro.. i am also not in need for the extra things windows pro offered... i am just a regular user, using my 4GB ram laptop only for school works.. I just wondering how come u guys are so smart about computer, u guys know alots, i feel like a stupid in front of u guys
hi @MSMG a question you may find interesting. so we have OOBENetworkCaptivePortal OOBENetworkConnectionFlow are there more components that you could remove from oobe? examples the privacy questions page? the 3 questions page. where you are asked where your parents met etc is this possible? since they should not have any change on a customized image? the privacy page at least... Majid
You can find a professional to home port of gpedit. I saw this somewhere. I don't remember where anymore. Do a search and you'll find it too. When I started I had experience with data maintenance and recovery, I didn't know much about customizing ISOs. So, I took advantage of the pandemic's idleness (decline in trade) to focus and learn. I learned a lot here.
@inTerActionVRI would it not be possible to export the group policy packages from a server build and install it on the home edition? I say server edition, because the client editions of windows the packages are mostly merged. microsoft desktop required package etc. hence my query Unless there's a way of decuppling the individual packages from the merged package? Majid
a general query. why are packages merged in client builds? I think 1809 was the last build where all packages are decuppled? correct me on that if I am wrong. sorry for going off topic
Time to move to something less harmful... That's not true. Home Is full of trash, is the heaviest Windows SKU. So if your PC can run Home, it can run any other version. You needed gpedit and is not in home. So looks like you need something better than Home, after all....
If I'm not mistaken Win32Calc was exported by MSMG from some server. I would know just get the executable and copy it in the same place inside the home. But it exported already exists. As I said, I don't remember where I saw it. But a simple search is found.
Sorry for the late reply, i kinda busy with my school works, but why u said Home edition is full of trash and the heaviest and harmful? Not that i dont want to use gpedit, but the truth is i dont know what it is and what it can do... im so stupid right? so what windows edition should i use? And where can i get it ? But @MSMG said the toolkit only support until 22621.1265? Cmiiw... Thank u for ur information, i learn many things here with u guys
at first i tought the same. that pro would be more resource heavy. why.? because it as hyperV and i tought home was a lighter version. and at the same time i tought PRO was lighter it has PRO in it. but i did research and read that they are the same on resources but pro has more useful options. like gpedit. ect.
the pro SKU has more features. it gives you more control over your updates it also has more features that can be disabled by group policy. which may ease the load unless it's changed, it also allows you to install without a ms account? but since you are an msmg user, then that last item is a n/a Majid
Your thought is exactly what i thought, i dont even know what hyperV is and what can i do with it.. i only use my laptop for school works. I thought pro edition is for those who are working with IT things... not a home user like me.
Thanks for explaining me the different between home and pro edition ... are u from malaysia? Ur name is so familiar in my ears, iam from indonesia... nice to meet u
