MSMG ToolKit

Thanks , just what I thought , thanks for clarifying this.

Also regarding the components that returns after new CU update in the future , do you know if it's only the system apps that get's returned or is it more than that ?

 

Whatever MS is doing is also pretty inconsistent. I upgraded 3 PCs from 1909 to 2004, all of them with substantial changes through your toolkit. 1 of the systems had virtually everything I had removed return while the other 2 were more or less exactly the same as they were before the upgrade.

 

@MSMG ,Like the app & compnents,the Windows Edition name in different language.these codes of below from WIMUpgrade:

Code:

if "%SelectedSourceOS%" equ "w10" if "%ImageBuild%" equ "17763" if "%ImageInstallationType%" equ "Server" if "%SourceEdition%" equ "ServerStandard" if "%TargetEdition%" equ "ServerDatacenter" (
    set "Flag=ServerDataCenter"
    set "Edition=ServerDatacenter"
    set "Name=%editiona%"
    set "Description=%editionb%"
    set "DisplayName=%edtionc%"
    set "DisplayDescription=%editiond%"
)

in language file:

Code:

set editiona=Windows Server 2019 SERVERDATACENTER
set editionb=Windows Server 2019 SERVERDATACENTER
set edtionc=Windows Server 2019 Datacenter ^(Desktop Experience^)
set editiond=This option installs the full Windows graphical environment, consuming extra drive space. It can be useful if you want to use the Windows desktop or have an app that requires it.

As the same as other advise,these codes aren't latest codes,only example.
Because make localization simply is the one of the most works for Toolkit.

 

Thanks for the information!

I've just removed all the desired packages through the command remove from packagelist and in the end of the removal processes this was appearing :
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Removing DISM Package...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool
Version: 10.0.19613.1000

Image Version: 10.0.18363.815

Processing 1 of 1 - Removing package Microsoft-Windows-CoreSystem-DISM-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~10.0.18362.719
[==========================100.0%==========================]
The operation completed successfully.

This entry isn't in the packages list , so I'm curious what this is. From the file description my guess is that it's something that's not in use anymore ? Is this removal of something that's superseded by the build version of the image ? Hence the buuild number "10.0.18362.719" is older than my "Image Version: 10.0.18363.815".
Want to know how this command got executed and what it is because it's not in the list... This is in the end of that list :

DISM Component Removal Template
===============================
Microsoft-Windows-ContentDeliveryManager-Package
Microsoft-Windows-Management-SecureAssessment-Package
Microsoft-Windows-Store-Client-Package

I'll continue after this and finalize this image anyway, because i'm now inpatient of getting this installation up and running TODAY =)


Thanks again for replies and help

 

Can you advise me which edition of MSGM to use for the windows 10 LTSB 2016 14393.3659 ?
Thanks in advance

 

Ok. Yes I've used both options 2 and 3 and not removed 1 by 1. But one of those templates had duplicate entries from the other so it shouldn't do any harm I guess it just took more time.

Yes the DISM package removal , where does the command come from, it's not in the packagelist. And the build version was older than the current on the image after integrating the updates... So, all the other steps after that went fine I think shouldn't it be good to go anyway ?

I dont understand how you can say "might be the DISM component etc" , it's your program and I was hoping you knew what that command came from since it doesn't seem to show in the list..

 

I just used the options to remove components from the both lists, not removing 1by1. So I shouldn't use both lists`?

 

Yes, thanks I've thought about this and it was about how I thought it was. But I didn't know I could use the Toolkithelper to retrieve the packages, so now I'm trying to remove the packages 1 by 1 and it seems to be working although I think I did some mistake in the process as the sources folder in DVD folder went almost empty, it's the second time I encountered this. I copied the entire iso contents in to the folder before starting the toolkit and when I was on the step to integrate the dotfx3.5 feature it said that the packages were missing.... Went to the sources folder and alot of files were missing again.

So either I did mistake or something is not right...

Thanks for the help bro

 

Thanks, I'll wait for your reply.

Can I do other tests to understand why it doesn't work for me?

if i run this command it works for me.

Code:

reg load HKLM\TK_NTUSER C:\Temp\WIN10\Mount\Install\Users\Default\ntuser.dat
reg import C:\Temp\WIN10\Custom\Registry\w10\x64\test.reg
reg unload HKLM\TK_NTUSER

through toolkit it still doesn't work, I still don't understand where I'm wrong.

 

It works for me 1909_815

 

Ahhh THAT'S why! Allright now I feel better and it's always nice to learn more about things.

 

And for one last question , I'm thinking of running this build and not updating anything until I decide it's time to move to next big update. I'm only using the computer for gaming exclusively, I'm well versed with computers and know how to avoid to get the system infected or trashed with malware etc. Do you think it's safe to operate this build for this purpose and not updating the system in a while ?

I think it's totally fine, just wanted to know what other people think....

 

I take it this has to be done after every CU?
