MSMG ToolKit

in response to the language packs, maybe spanish, or a different language (but probably not); been thinking of learning another language, and what better way to challenge myself than to change the language on everything while im learning, or something idk :/

anyways, ill need to keep windows update, so will removing the telemetry services break windows update, or can I just say buh-bye and not worry

would also be nice (if at all possible), if I could discuss this over skype, or discord, whatever voice chat app you prefer, to tell what I feel without feeling like im text-vomiting everywhere

 

Is anybody experiencing issues integrating Windows Calculator into their 32-bit ISO images?

MSMG ToolKit - Integrate Microsoft Win32 Calculator
===============================================================================

Windows Redstone 2 32-Bit Win32Calc Base files are Not Available Yet...

===============================================================================

I am using Windows10_InsiderPreview_EnterpriseVL_x32_en-gb_15063.iso.

 

I tried to integrate calculator, calendar and mail in en_windows_10_enterprise_2016_ltsb_x64_dvd_9059483

Integrating was successful however this apps didn't launch.

 

Looks like there is no Calculator available for RS 2 x86

In \ToolKit-v7.4\Packs\Win32Calc there is

Microsoft-Windows-win32calc-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~10.0.15063.0

but there is no

Microsoft-Windows-win32calc-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~x86~~10.0.15063.0

 

Some strange ISO.
Where we find it?

 

I can't find exactly where I got it from. Where would you recommend downloading the en-gb Windows 10 Enterprise images from, both 32 and 64 bit?

 

no matter from where you downloaded
verify checksums

Code:

129C4701F3DC518D49348B9463D01CF4DEA446D8 *en-gb_windows_10_enterprise_version_1703_updated_march_2017_x64_dvd_10194889.iso
E9214D9039D6CB5B7534064C528124F3BCE3D436 *en-gb_windows_10_enterprise_version_1703_updated_march_2017_x86_dvd_10191843.iso

 

Personally, if I were you I would go to TechBench by WZT (v3.4.3).

Does removing Geo Location cause any problems down the line and what is it used for?

EDIT : Got the answer.

 

Just wanted to report that I know for sure that removing following packages do NOT cause any problems with updates or DISM or SFC or SysPrep and are safe to remove (unless you need them):
Microsoft-OneCore-Miracast-Transmitter-Package
Microsoft-OneCore-AllJoyn-Package
Microsoft-OneCore-CameraCaptureUI-Package
Microsoft-Windows-SearchEngine-Client-Package
Sensors-Universal-Package
Sensors-Universal-WOW64-Package
Microsoft-Mobile-Sensors-Package
Microsoft-OneCore-Sensors-Core-Package
Microsoft-OneCore-Sensors-Core-WOW64-Package
Microsoft-OneCore-Sensors-Algorithms-Package
Microsoft-OneCore-Sensors-DriverClasses-Package
Microsoft-Windows-MobilePC-Client-Sensors-Package
Microsoft-Windows-MobilePC-Client-Sensors-WOW64-Package
Microsoft-OneCore-AccountsControl-API-Package
Microsoft-Windows-Security-AADBrokerPlugin-Package
Microsoft-Windows-AppReadiness-Package
Microsoft-Windows-Client-AssignedAccess-Package
Microsoft-Windows-TestRoot-and-FlightSigning-Package
Microsoft-Windows-TestRoot-and-FlightSigning-WOW64-Package

Does nobody else have a custom list of bloatware/non-essential packages they remove with MSMG Toolkit or DISM (aside from the packages already available for removal through MSMG Toolkit) that they would like to share?

I am also curious why removal of CloudExperienceHost packages results in non-bootable images? I assume it has something to do with OOBE and SysPrep?

 

Why are there 2 versions of wimgapi.dll files in MSMG Toolkit - an outdated v14295 DLL in Bin root folder and one very recent v16190 DLL in Bin/x64/DISM10 folder? Is it due to ESD Descryption and DISM++CUI compatibility?

 

More questions:
Let's say there are a bunch of packages like these:

If I want to remove them all, do I need to specify them all in MSMG Toolkit RemovePkgsList file or just the ones in bold? What about "KB Updates" - will relevant "KB Updates" packages be removed too? I assume those are simply updated packages.
Is there a way to find out the size of each package? I use CBSEnum to view the list of available packages.

 

wow, just wow.....

 

Knowing information that I do not doesn't make you sound more intelligent - at all. I am not a system administrator, IT is not my field and never was, and I don't have any formal education in any of this. Ironically, my Windows username is (and was since 2002) Enthusiast... Entho is not that far from Enthu - wouldn't o-bro help u-bro with something that makes u-bro look "Wow" (probably in a bad way) due to lack of information or whatever else?

 

Installing directx Jun2010 redist requires .net 3.5 then integrating directx pack is necessary to integrate .net 3.5?

 

No, DX9 does not require NET 3.5.

 

Also wanted to know about WinRE. Boot.wim normally holds Setup and WinPE within it, so where is WinRE coming from? Does MSMG Toolkit apply updates to Boot.wim's Setup, WinPE and that WinRE when all are mounted?

I just copy winre.wim from an install with working DaRT to the mounted install.wim. Works every time.
