MSMG ToolKit

You need to login to view this posts content.

 

Try to install with the internet disconnected. But as I said you will have to test step by step what you can remove and what breaks some functionality. For questions with WinReducer EX-100 it would be better to go to their own forum.

 

I haven't seen a post here about it, but when I used MSMG Toolkit to create my RS2 image, removing defender of course removed SYMSRV.DLL. This DLL is required for the Get-WindowsUpdateLog Powershell cmdlet.

Would like to see Defender (and any other Telemetry components), removed from RS3, but is there a way to retain that DLL?

As I can't remove Defender (other than deleting all files in the folder, which I suspect will break things), there seems to be no way to test the situation.

Please forgive me for my noob-ness.

 

Ok.

 

Some time ago I posted about a problem with Avira Antivirus.
It turned out that removing Defender (from LTSB image) kept Avira in a "hung" state upon installing.
Although Avira did solve that issue by means of an updated version, I would nevertheless advise against removing Defender as it may cause issues.

Similarly, removing OneDrive corrupts the component store.

Cheers.

Hmm I never had issues with MSMG Toolkit when working 2016 LTSC and also no make use of none AV

 

hello

with Win reducer, can you remove Windows defender safely?

 

dude here is MSMG Toolkit thread and NOTHING about WinReducer so you are in wrong place!

 

I apologize, I just asked why it was mentioned before

 

Save as DisableDefender.cmd
Run after instalation, and this will disable services for Defender.

Code:

reg add "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SecurityHealthService" /v Start /t REG_DWORD /d 4 /f
reg add "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WdNisSvc" /v Start /t REG_DWORD /d 4 /f
reg add "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WinDefend" /v Start /t REG_DWORD /d 4 /f
reg add "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WdNisDrv" /v Start /t REG_DWORD /d 4 /f
reg add "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Sense" /v Start /t REG_DWORD /d 4 /f

 

After modifications with MSMG Toolkit these values are not in the registry.
I'm using W10 v1709 x64.

 

please.
Does anyone have the store pack to integrate into the ltsb image?

hello

Can i use policy(gpedit.msc) for reach these result ?

 

Yesterday I stripped down Windows 10 N 1703 no metro apps/windows stuff to install on some machines a client of mine has, so Im testing it right now, but, now it has updated to 1709 and all those features are back. Is there any feasible way to prevent this from happening? Besides not updating automatically (something I could not find how to turn it off completely) i usually update Windows weekly with WSUS Offline I don't want new features just the security updates + Win defender placebo

 

Well, I went there and no one is answering.

 

Just tell him to unpin what he doesn't want from the Start Menu. There is nothing to be gained from stripping it down. Just more work for you, and a clean install with every update.

 

What's the purpose of MSMG, then? Also, no possibility to get just the security updates and none of the shenanigans?

 

I use it to mount all at once. But, I don't remove stuff with it except for humor.

All the updates are security updates. Didn't you know?

 

Not every update is, but thanks anyway. I'll see if there's someone else knows what you and I don't
