    yes its freeware and you can use it as long as you wish and if you like it you should think of donating few $ to MSMG creator of this toolkit.

    @Jingzin. Thanks. I use DISM++ and will try your advice. I got away from DISM++ because, for me, it made much larger *.wim files than MSMG and some other apps, sometimes by as much as 90-100MB even after I ran DISM++ image clean up.

    before using dism++ to create backup.wim use dism++ /disk cleanup to clean up sxs and other folders. Both dism++ and toolkit use the same commands and likely reason why toolkit created slimmer wim file is because of you used clean up wim option inside toolkit and didnt do cleaning before creating wim using dism++.
    also you should check dism++ options/more settings and change compression rate if you want smaller wim file and check exclusion list to make wim file even smaller.

    didnt know theres cortana in 23h2.
    open admin cmd type winget list if it doesnt work open ms store and update app installer.
    then open cmd or termial again and type winget list
    see if cortana is there if so copy its full name
    type winget uninstall paste whatever you copied
    this works even against edge

    myself i would add it in windows using winget, armourycrate you can download from asus web, install it would add other whatever. then would use dism++ to create wim file you can use to add to your iso or use it as backup.

    If you want debloat Windows Backup App, I made a temporary solution (tested on my LTSC2021):
    1.mount install.wim (ofc)
    2.open NSudo (in the Toolkit_v13.6\Bin\x64)
    3.open cmd via NSudo
    4.
    Code:
    cd [Your Mount]\Windows\SystemApps\MicrosoftWindows.Client.CBS_cw5n1h2txyewy
    rmdir /q /s WindowsBackup
    del WindowsBackup*
    5.open AppxManifest.xml
    6.delete every line about WindowsBackup (in my case is line 842-849 & 456-489)
    7.save it to somewhere
    8.then delete original AppxManifest.xml via NSudo cmd, and replace it with edited one
    9.(optional) turn off automatic windows update in your install.wim

    IIRC removing 'ClientCBS' package also does the job when using MSMG ToolKit.

    Doesn't that break a bunch of stuff? I'd like to remove the entire package, mostly because of SearchHost and TextInputHost, but I am not sure if it is possible on Win1123H2.
