The second powershell script does invoke Dism for removal of the Edge Package but also cleans up the Windows program folder, registry entries and tries to redirect Microsoft-edge calls to the new default browser as well, which DISM removal only, does not do.
Most likely shortly after consumer 24H2 and LTSC 24H2 fully releases in 1-3 months, because there is no point in releasing a new version of MSMG Toolkit before these big final system updates. From development point of view releasing a new version of MSMG Toolkit before these updates is counter productive and time wasting because you can't predict what Microsoft will change in the final OS build version for 24H2 release. In such case, most of the work and testing would be wasted and would have to be redone. Unless MSMG still deals with personal life issues and doesn't have time for tool development in the near future.
Recall, now came installed and as enabled feature by default. You can add: Code: Recall in "\Bin\Lists\DisableFeaturesList.txt" Then, ignore the printed Screen from above Automated Menu, use the properly function for "Disable Features List" in the Toolkit's Customize Menu. You can apply this setting from W10 to W11. It seems that the recall has also been implemented in Windows 10.
Didn't know they will add recall to earlier windows versions lol. Windows is just getting better and better. Most windows users up there won't disable it they won't even know recall exists while recall will quietly take screneshoots of stuff people do on their desktops. @inTerActionVRI I think instead disabling it will be better to just remove it and simply don't install any win updates anymore.
Code: >nul 2>&1 reg delete "HKLM\TK_COMPONENTS\DerivedData\Components\amd64_microsoft-windows-d..remoteprocedurecall_31bf3856ad364e35_10.0.27695.1000_none_b2e02cfbc405c2c6" /f call :RemoveFile "Mont\Windows\WinSxS\Manifests\amd64_microsoft-windows-d..remoteprocedurecall_31bf3856ad364e35_10.0.27695.1000_none_b2e02cfbc405c2c6.manifest"
Ok, thanks for your reply. We hope that MSMG will find some time to release a new version after releasing windows 11 24h2.
I'm waiting for when Microsoft releases 24h2 and when they do I will try it once or few times again to see if I can make of it something better than 22h2 if not I will just skip 24h2 as I did 23h2 esp because of there's almost no difference between 22h2 and 24h2. What will likely happen is that after 22h2 I will install on my pc some Linux distro and just use Linux instead spending hours and hours trying to clean up windows of junkware and other crapware/spyware. I don't use pc that much anymore, years ago was using it for 3ds max after effects and gaming today I'm just watching movies on it really ah and sporadically some letter in word. I simply prefer my phone for Internet browsing social networks banking etc. Taking screenshot every few secs of everything someone does on their desktop and even if you disable it, it may enable itself after you install update or even on its own. No thank you Microsoft, keep it.
Sorry but this is just wrong. Linux kernel has nothing to do with custom distros that are based on it. Mint does not represent linux in any way. You want a "better" or rather different experience out-of-the-box then just look into other distros, there's a whole world out there to your tastes. And if you want a custom experience with your system configured to your every whim and preference there's nothing better than Arch and much more rewarding and worthwhile, scripting knowledge or not. Basically the only thing you need in linux to effortlessly kickstart yourself is being able to read, specifically - to read Arch Wiki. And yeah, it's doesn't matter what distro you use, Arch Wiki is your universal friend, with most complete and up-to-date information (most of wannabe tech blogs and articles are just copying info from there, lol)
I really need to do something about my English. I thought it was my native language I know how to remove software packages in Linux. When I mentioned scripting I was talking about the same process I use for windows - automating the removal and install of programs, and tweakling the system. I should learn to shut up. I seem to have stirred up a hornet's nest. Please forget I said anything at all.
Your English ain't that bad at all actually I can understand most of the things you're typing. As to removing apps all at once in Mint To list installed apps apt list --installed | cut -d/ -f1 To remove apt remove -s "paste list of packages to remove" It's way easier and simple to modify Linux than Windows. No you didn't, actually thanks to you I will install Cinammon Edition today
In addition, besides the possibility of using Arch and its derivatives... For those who have ventured into Linux Mint, when it comes to Debian or Ubuntu derivatives (Ubuntu is also a Debian derivative "Standard package format is .deb"), you can use the Debian Testing netinstall iso. The best option for customizing from scratch without the bloats of ready-made distros. There is also Mageia Linux (a fork of Mandriva "Standard package format is .rpm"), in which the installation is graphical and you can also customize everything during the installation.
