    Yes it happens sometimes due to the variable used to store the DaRT path not getting reset to default, ok will check and fix it.

    The current ToolKit can only convert single or all indexes in a ESD image but will replace the original file, but you can use the WIM Manager in the Tools section to export the image index to WIM to either to the same image file or a new one.

    This happens due to the folder/files being used or locked by DISM related services so please the below steps

    - Restart the PC
    - Run the ToolKit and see if it will remove the files/folder completely
    - if not then use the imagex.exe to umount the image or unlocker tool

    Soon, will workout a soultion to this problem by providing a own cleanup tool.

    For OS with same Architecture, the ToolKit will work with both single or multiple indexes servicing mode But for AIO, the ToolKit works only in single index servicing mode.

    I'm quite busy these days with ToolKit GUI development and so there will delay in replying to the queries here.

    And, for the latest update about GUI version, now, I have added Microsoft Default Metro Apps removal and still few issues are there to be fixed for the public release.

    For an 15046 version
    I tried as you said for the conversion, but it crashed this time at 19% ???? maybe i'll reinstall a fresh w10 version, i have doubts with some running processes in my task manager ...



    thks for your hard work

    Would be nice to be able to select many answers in the removal section IE: like this A, B, C, L,M ... instead of always passing thru the "yes" question over and over when a component is removed, and stay in the removal component menu, if i don't take notes, i loose sight of what i've done.

    Same for Metro apps removal ?? or maybe i'm going too fast loll

    Or maybe some kind of an answer text file we could automate the job, after listing all the packages into a text file and choosing what we want or not ??

    I'm doing the same thing over and over with each win10 version ...

    Just trying to troubleshoot an issue here...
    Is anyone using Avira Free antivirus on the MSMG toolkit modded Windows 10 1607?
    I've installed Avira on several 1607 LTSB Windows 10 slightly modded with MSMG toolkit, but the latest version won't start scheduler and realtime protection services.
    Note that Defender has been removed with MSMG.

    I've tried searching online but it seems nobody has the same issue, so it must be something on my end that's got borked.
    If anyone can test this it would help a lot to narrow down on the issue.

    Cheers.

    Will that be open source ? For example, current MSMG implementation allows us to see the code because it's a simple batch file whereas a gui app is often a compiled exe file.

    Can't find that post where MSMG said that for now it won't be open source.

    Cheers.

    I was working on Windows Server 2016 and was trying to remove components..
    4 2 Y 1 does the job well and removes all windows components , but
    4 2 Y 2 doesnt do the job and it again goes to "RemoveAllComponents" menu instead of "RemoveAdvancedComponents" menu
    I tried it 3 times but the result is the same

    Fixing the format USB flash drive feature

    @ MSMG

    I'd like to submit a fix to an old issue related to the format USB flash drive feature of Toolkit.

    Code:
    :: Checking Whether the Specified USB Flash Drive Exist or Not.
    %USBDriveLetter% ^| findstr /c:"The system cannot find the drive specified." 2>nul
    if errorlevel 0 (
    echo.Invalid USB Flash Drive Specified, Please Try Again...
    goto :Stop
    )
    should be replaced by:

    Code:
    :: Checking Whether the Specified USB Flash Drive Exist or Not.
    CD /D %USBDriveLetter% 2>nul
    if errorlevel 1 (
    echo.Invalid USB Flash Drive Specified, Please Try Again...
    goto :Stop
    )
