hi all, just removed every component that is possible to remove using msmg toolkit. this includes the windows update component. all is working well here. had to add my screen reader's installer to the run once string since I removed narrator and friends. very happy I am. thank you msmg again for msmg toolkit and all the stressful work it must be in finding components and debugging them. on a less happy note swiftly moveing all my data off this 4tb hdd due to impending disk failia. it's a seegate backup plus. give me strength. next time I'll try wd. sorry for going off topic. Majid
@mhussain Give me an example, because with my dumb brain I really don't understand what it's about. Maybe I can finally understand
@MSMG if i've choose to remove cortana and smartscreen, and the toolkit have removed it from the image, do i still need to disable cortana and smartscreen from the apply tweaks section? This is kinda confusing for me.. thanks
@FriedTempe hi, no you don't need to use the tweaks if you have removed the sed components from the image already.
I have known this for some time. My problem is that it deletes before it runs, with or without exclamation mark... I added it to the autounatand.xml file and it didn't run anyway, it was deleted. By the way, ha, I care if you don't, I started with DOS and pascal. no bragging, I was referring to my age. but I'm not senile. I ask, and I say, I don't think we should argue here, or with anyone. Thank you!!!!
Seems no - just tried to remove the same that I remove on working w10 and have "explorer error" after install
Is it better to use LTSC V1809 for component removal and no sfc scan error than the latest version LTSC 21H2? or does anyone have a list of packages that cannot be removed with ltsc 21H2
Haha, calling "old" a 2/3 years old HW is really funny. I'm typing right now on a laptop from the XP era, that out of the box had a 1.6GHz dual core turion, 512MB RAM, 120GB PATA/IDE mechanical HDD and a 54Mbps WIFI card. Over the time it was updated to 2.1GHz CPU, 256GB mSata SSD, 4GB RAM, and 866Mbps WIF card, but still it's a 2006 machine, and it runs a cleaned up W11 (or a stock Server11) w/o a blink.
I have an IVY bridge machine as well (a i5 3475S). It's my server It's invaluable because it's the newest (Intel) machine that can run anything from XP to Win11 w/o spending days modding the older OSes
