    Does anyone know how to activate ReFS from bootwim? Can the Toolkit activate it? on win11 23h2 canary

    For those of you few who might still be interested, removing Storage Spaces from Remove System Components Menu will break certain PowerShell CmdLets, such as Get-Disk, Get-Partition and Get-Volume by not getting any output returned for either of them.

    You can still access the underlying information by using WMI ojbect classes (e.g. Win32_LogicalDisk, Win32_Volume and Win32_DiskPartition.

    I wanted to see if I use package list removal for StorageSpaces (as found in RemovePkgsList_W10_10.0.1904X.txt) using DISM rather than ToolKit, however, it said that it was already removed:

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    ####Removing Windows Components Using Package List#############################
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    ===========================[Install.wim, Index : 1]============================

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Removing StorageSpaces Package...
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The specified package has already been removed...



    I have never been using package list removal before, so I might have done something incorrectly, but basically I wanted to see if the breakage originates from ToolKit method, or if using native DISM commands results in the same.

    The source image I have been using was 10.0.19041.1.vb_release.191206-1406_amd64fre_client-multisku_retail_en-us-CCSA_X64FRE_EN-US_DV5.iso to conduct all tests.

    I finally bought parts to build a new PC and put my 4790k machine into retirement.
    Gonna go ahead and install 11 on the new rig. Will MSMG let me get rid of that requirement to have a Microsoft account?
    I also saw in the sticky that 23h2 wasn't in the supported list? Reading back it seems like I'll need to wait on an update.
    I removed a lot of stuff from 10 that never came back, Cortana, trash in the menu, ETC... Will that stay gone in 11 or will it consistently come back with updates?
    I miss windows 7 -_-

    you dont need ms account to install win11, get yourself win11 22h2 clean it with msmg toolkit install then update to 23h2 if some apps come back you can get rid of them manually

    incorrect information last poster!
    for windows 11 untouched iso media, a microsoft account is required to install windows 11 home SKU.
    removeing the 2 components that have OOBE at the start of there names will remove this issue.
    oobe network connection flow is one of the component names.

    "Will MSMG let me get rid of that requirement to have a Microsoft account?"

    hi,
    a question.
    I have a machine from 2012.
    4gb ram an I3 processer 465gb disk.
    if intensive task is ran on it, the device will shut down due to overheating.
    I don't like E waste. so my question.
    will msmg toolkit aid me in lightening the load of the machine?
    prevent overheating?
    this device will be most likely be used by my family not me.
    will be used for office like tasks web-browsing etc.
    the none geeky serious stuff :)
    I will be very greatful for your answers.
    my family can't even now believe I can do all of this stuff, what with being blind and all.
    thank you for reading my long question.
    Majid

    it depends on why your laptop is overheating if because of heatsinks inside are clogged msmg toolkit wont help you much. Until recently i was using desktop from 2009 and win 11 on it so surely you can run win 11 on your laptop.

    msmg toolkit will help you remove lots of apps from windows make it use less ram but it wont do magic.

    you can also download ltsc or even ltsb windows version theyre based on windows 10 those are free of most ms crapware so you could try it and see how it runs on your laptop.

    What make/model is your laptop? The first thing I would do is replace the thermal compound, which is the paste between your CPU and heatsink. While the laptop is apart and you have the heatsink out, take the fan and heatsink outside and use soft brush to get rid of the dust. If you can't see light at the other side of the heatsink, it is blocked and air won't get past to cool your chips.

    The best thing is to try and find out that's what I usually do, even when people say it won't work. I'm 99 percent sure that the toolkit works against 19045.3693

    Is it normal that there are no official communications about an update for MSMGToolkit?

    Hi dear friend @MrNico98

    He's got a lot of work to do, and it's not just the work he does here for free to everyone, but don't think he doesn't care about what happens here, because he does, he just, like most here, can't work 24 hours a day to solve everything that comes up, because even if there were 48 hours in a day, I wouldn't be able to solve everything...

    Be patient and when he can he will post an update and answer any questions he can to provide an appropriate opinion and solution.

    Be sure to post your doubts and experiences, as these are the keys to opening the doors to solutions.

    A Big hug and googd computing.
    Best Regards.
