    ohh yes LTSB will receive patches and such. but no major build updates. it's supposed to stay at 1607 for the foreseeable future

    On Server 2016 (RS1 14393) I was able to use MSMG Toolkit to install Edge Browser.

    I now have Server 17650 running, and also have downloaded the UUPs for Client 17650 and built an AIO ISO. So I need to extract the "Microsoft-Windows-Internet-Browser-Package..." files from the Client UUP/ISO so that I can add them to the Server.

    Can MSMG Toolkit do this, or do I need something else?

    Never mind! Figured it out myself and used the KNARZ script, with the help of this: https://forums.mydigitallife.net/th...-updated-2013-09-30.48325/page-5#post-1331945

    Selecting pro only doesn't remove the other indices, delete them (when you don't want them to be on the iso) and rebuild install.wim afterwards.

    Yeah, thanks :) I realised it soon, that i missed something, then i removed them, and forgot to rebuild. So i guess it's f'd.
    But the ESD conversion helped me out too, so thanks again! It was painfully slow, but my laptop survived! And at the end, the ISO was 2.47 GB, so not bad, i guess.
    I'm going to start again from the beginning, maybe MS will release a new ESD "soon", with some Patch Tuesday stuff, and MSMG can finish the Toolkit.

    MSFT is not going to release any new ESD for RS4 ;) (only when it's time for the release of the refresh media) It will be a CU at the most.

    PS, compressing install.wim will have the same effect as simple rebuilding, but it's not serviceable when it's install.esd, that can be done when you're finished servicing.

    That's what i meant, refresh media with CU's :)
    Well, i broke something else then, because when i was testing it on VMWare, it wasn't booting after the first setup phase ("rebooting in 10 sec."). Gave me only an unknown error.

    Edit: the new 'lite' version works fine, 1.92 GB ISO. Thanks for the info!

    The problem with LTSB is that Windows Update in this version sucks. It takes a lot of time to search for updates and when installing a Cumulative Update takes centuries with high CPU usage even after a clean installation with an updated ISO... In RS3 the update process is much faster.

    Hopefully in the next LTSB/LTSC version they fix it.

    You're right, the whole update process takes a lot of time.

    Searching for updates takes like 5-8 seconds for me until it shows the results (latest updates integrated before the clean install)

    Of course it takes some time installing/integrating updates since the size of the CU's is already over 1GB

    Hello guys, my first post ever on MDL,
    I would simply like to know why MSMG Toolkit v8.3 does not offer the "remove telemetry" option anymore ? I tried my best to find before asking but I still have no idea ? What am I missing ?

    You're not missing anything, telemetry removal was temporally disabled on RS3-RS4 Source ISO's because the ToolkitHelper is being updated.

    I added a cumulative update just prior to the latest one so that Windows Update finds some update to install and I always have the same result, high usage cpu on just searching for updates and some delay to find. Maybe after the first update this changes but with the RS3 already in the first update everything happens normally, find updates in less than 10 seconds.

    Why are Toolkit-modified images inconsistent? I repeat the same steps in the same order and the WIMs are always different.

    This statement is so ambiguous. Could you be more descriptive?

    That's because it doesn't need to be any more specific. It's a general finding. Repeat any modification on the same source while following the instructions and the file hashes are never equal.
