    Was having issues with my home network from past few days and found out that someone tried to hack into home network by creating a fake Wireless SSID.

    But it's been fixed and I'm online now.

    I have kept the component list to minimal for easy maintenance and troubleshooting, and to achieve a decent classic Windows Desktop experience. When time permits will expand the list with necessary components.

    Use the Toolkit's Tools->WIM Manager to manage wim indexes.

    Use Start.cmd to run the Toolkit and don't integrate the VC pack since it contains a bug in creation.

    abbodi1406 hasn't uploaded the new VC Pack yet, only the AIO Executable is has been updated.

    Last time used the AIO Executable to create a pack for Toolkit but it didn't came well, so waiting for the abbodi1406's new pack to be uploaded.

    Don't integrate the VC pack until a newer pack is available.

    Due to the code protection I have added to the ToolKitHelper, it takes more time to load the program into the memory and then execute.

    Will try to add more options to ToolKitHelper to accept more parameters.

    It's due to Microsoft change in Update package format, the removed components do return when the system is updated either using Windows Update or through manual updates installation/integration.

    Thanks for identifying the VC pack bug, will re-create the pack once the original pack is updated.

    And I have fixed the %ImageBuild% reported thing in the next version.

    It's not a bug but rather it's due to Microsoft change in Update package format, the removed components do return when the system is updated either using Windows Update or through manual updates installation/integration.
    And I'm working on that to stop the components getting restored.
