    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?

    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.
     
  6. 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? :ak: 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 :giverose:

    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

  9. 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.
     
  10. 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 :bye3:

    hyper-v is the answer to vmware.
    from microsoft.
    it's used to host virtual machines.
    since it's not accessible it's of no use to me.
    what I mean by not accessible?
    a default virtual sound device is not added to a virtual machine.
    in products like vmware workstation or even virtualbox, a default virtual sound device is added so that you are able to listen to the output of the vm's audio.
    since i'm blind and require audio on first boot, hyper-v is for me useless.

    hyper-v is windows own virtual machine.. you can install your MSMG ISO you made and test it. so no need to clean install windows to try the ISO.

    AdvertisingXaml is an old component which already present in the previous versions maybe you didn't notice it.

    NETNativeFramework, NETNativeRuntime, UIXaml, VCLibs140 are still unfinished, it needs further testing.
