MSMG ToolKit

We really need a FAQ in the first post. It's getting boring to answer the same questions over and over again.

Cheers.

 

@Supern00b yep I agree, still some members don't have patience to search them want only candy myself several times I need search a lot since first post to achieve some info

I have a question.
I want to install Win 10 Enterprise LTSB 2016 N and modify it using v6.7 MSMG tool.
So, what updates can I integrate into this edition of Windows 10? Please let me know. And should I integrate them first before debloating/removing bunch of junk stuff?

Thanks so much!

 

You should use updates for version 1607. First install updates then remove things, but version LTSB N is almost bloat-free.

 

Thank you for replying; my concern is the following,

Which specific Win 10 update can be applied to Enterprise LTSB N 2016?

Here are the following list of available updates:

Servicing stack update for Win 10 (11.38 MB)
Cumulative update for Win 10 (1.02 GB)
Adobe Flash player update (20.41 MB)

The reason I ask is that, Enterprise LTSB N are only suppose to receive security updates, so stable updates. But these updates are for Windows 10 Home or Pro versions though. So wouldn't this add more bloat and cause problems?
That is why I asked...

 

Hi all!

ISO Win_Pro_10_1607.1_64BIT_Russian_MLF_X21-27139(10.0.14393.447 Updated Jan 2017) + ToolKit v6.7
Remove the:
Remove Default Metro Apps Menu - [2] All Apps
Remove Windows Components Menu - [1] All Windows Components
Remove Advanced Windows Components Menu - [1] Adobe Flash For Windows, [2] Microsoft Edge Browser App, [3] Microsoft Hyper-V.

Problem:
Before the end of the installation of the system does not prompt to create an account! after select the default settings OS goes into a reboot.
We do the same thing, but leave: Microsoft Biometrics, Windows Content Delivery Manager and Windows Embedded Features.
Now, are prompted to create an account. Now there is a work desk! but the taskbar is not available and start menu does not work.

Which module does not need to touch it to solve this problem? Microsoft probably something changed... before such problems were not. I need to try more old images I just wanted to work with new images...

ps. sorry for my English.

 

When the refresh iso's where released we already found out that MSMG's toolkit can't remove the default metro apps because the code is not changed to do that, the advise is to use the 14393.0 July 2016 updated iso's.

 

I so admire your patience. This is not sarcasm, I really do.

Cheers.

 

@jjxaker use the july 2016 iso not jan 2017

 

Code:

:WimCompCleanup

%DISM% /Image:%~1 /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup

nor

Code:

:WimCompCleanupResetBase

%DISM% /Image:%~1 /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup /ResetBase

is NOT supported by Windows7.

/Cleanup-Image /scanhealth is the maximum (applies only to /Online).

So please wrap a condition around it. Thanks ;D

 

I have a big problem. I can not delete the ToolKit folder. wtf. I dont have any permission.

 

@Schrotty hi well what you make when working with Toolkit (if make something of course)

 

In case the mount/unmount of wim files fails, windows will still block the mount folder from deletion.

Check for mounted WIMs still residing in the system:

Code:

dism /Get-MountedWimInfo

If a mount is found, use the shown mount folder to discard:

Code:

dism /unmount-wim /mountdir:"x:\found\mount\dir" /discard

 

@slave77 well one time this happen with me same using dism NO have luck so I need re-install Windows another time; but now this no happen nevermore

 

Only had that once in a virtual machine while mounting a WIM file to a desktop folder ... things went terribly wrong. Fortunately it only needed to restore a snapshot.

Conlusion: NEVER use the systemdrive for mounting and especially avoid the dektop as work space.
