    Hi all, I want to thanks everybody involved with the develop of MSMG Toolkit and its community, it's really awesome.
    Anyways i'm a newbie with ISO installation customizations ect so please "bare with me" xD
    Now my problem is that i wanted to integrate my audio and gpu drivers as when I install a fresh win 10 they are never up to date, but i really can't find a way to itegrate them right... So my question is if it's possible to extract the files needed from the already installed drivers ? Cause when i try to extract the exe from the nvidia installation or from the cab archive of the Realtek audio drivers there's just so much stuff that comes out and i really don't know which files to pick up.

    I have some doubts ...

    Why can't Restricted Codecs (IntMMRC) be integrated into Customer Edition images? Only on Server images. If I edit and enable to integrate the Restricted Codecs (IntMMRC) in these images, what can I expect as errors?

    Note: I'm with the 1909 H2 Customer Edition.

    @MSMG, would it be very complex to implement a functionality of: "selection of the options you want to apply" and, one to apply the customized selection at once?

    I saw this feature in KMS_VL_ALL_AIO, which allows you to set "yes" or "no" to run checks and applications for windows and office.

    Thanks in advance for your attention!

    Edited: to add a note

    Hint:
    Use Double Driver to get drivers from live operating system first.

    Download:
    Google BooZet Freeware & download Double Driver.

    Code:
    Mount install.wim:
    Dism /Mount-Image /ImageFile:C:\install.wim /Index:1 /MountDir:C:\mount
    
    Add a driver:
    Dism /Image:C:\mount /Add-Driver /Driver:C:\drivers\xxxxx.inf
    
    OR
    
    Add drivers:
    Dism /Image:C:\mount /Add-Driver /Driver:C:\drivers /Recurse

    Yes, I can confirm the current Windows 10 VC pack causes installation to fail when integrated into 2004 (19041.208).
    Hoping this gets fixed soon, this saves me a lot of grief on several systems.

    In readme.txt it is written:
    "
    Known Issues:
    =============
    - Windows 7/8.1/10 v1507/v1511/v1607/v1703/v1709/v1803 Component removal has been removed temporarily.
    "
    What does it mean? Can't I remove components from the ISO-image of Win 10 1703 build 15063?

    If you want to remove all selected components at once then use the Remove Windows Components using Package List menu.

    I checked.
    The component is deleted, only the removal process is not displayed in the Toolkit:

    Yes GUI will be more robust and user friendly to use and provides more options to make the tool better, provides better management and helps in troubleshooting.

    Yes would like to add the preset mechanism for re-using the task steps for different images.

    No the GUI will have it's own versioning and it won't continue with the current Toolkit version.

    Yes once the component removals is complete for W2004, will start a new thread and post a test build.

    The new name suits very well for the kind of tool being developed and yes the localization will be added.

    Yes I'm adding back the support for v1903 too and have partially added the support in the current ToolKitHelper.exe

    Use the below command to extract the drives from the installed system.

    Code:
    DISM.exe /Online /Export-Driver /Destination:C:\ExportedDrivers
    
    Then copy the drivers from the C:\ExportedDrivers folder to ToolKit's <Drivers\Install\w10\x64> folder and use the menu Integrate Windows Drivers in ToolKit.

    Why do you want to add back MMRC to images which comes with MMRC built-in. the MMRC integration is provided only for Server builds.

    If you want to really add the features to other images then you can copy those files to Windows Updates folder and use the Integrate Windows Updates menu from the ToolKit.

    The ToolKit provides dynamic menus based on the image edition selected and so it would be difficult to add yes/no option for each menu and then apply all the options at once.
