    LTSB is just enterprise with a special servicing level, not a magical special edition;)

    Something has control over the dvd folder, boot using a live linux or a winpe iso and delete the dvd folder.

    I tried MEGA, but it requires registration to download. Same with mediafire. I couldn't read mail.ru, and multiup only allows me to download one file at a time. So the only links that work are the pCloud ones.

    Mega does not require registration, and mail.ru gets translated automatically through your browser if you use Chrome.

    ok I got it.

    The only thing that's required is Toolkit-v8.6.7z, and the rest of the files are optional. Only pc.cd gave unregistered users the ability to download a multi-GB directory at once, which is what I tried doing originally.

    Edit:

    Also, can I use MSMG Toolkit on a Windows Enterprise LTSB iso?

    What if I set MSMG to delete something that's not included in LTSB, like Cortana? Does MSMG still handle LTSB images correctly in all cases, or is there something I need to watch out for?

    On LTSB ISO you can just remove Windows Components and apply some tweaks since LTSB is already clean, i mean, without cortana etc.

    There's no point in using LTSB if you're using MSMG toolkit though, because MSMG toolkit can give you the same result as LTSB with the newest v1803.

    And NO you aren't forced to update to a new branch! That's misinformation!

    Oh yes there is a point. LTSB still contains some crap and there is the package list removal feature too which i like. One of the telemetry removal guides here has a nice package list.

    I would like to see a tool or a batch file that does list package removals only. I looked at the msmg file but i cant see how to unhide and decouple packages.

    Right, but, I need this system to be stable. So there's no reported bugs when handling windows LTSB is there? I checked the README and it didn't say anything about RS1 so I guess I'm safe but I want to make sure.

    I can always update later, right?

    I would love to see that package list... ;)

    Someone has done a list list of telemetry removals for each w10 build number. You still need a tool that does it though. If i was given a basic sample file i could build up my own batch file.

    In my opinion, using MSMG on LTSB is useless, LTSB is stable with or without MSMG.
