    A suggestion:

    @MSMG, when you have some time, I don't know if it's already in the project ... But could you add the features to remove "Microsoft.Windows.CallingShellApp" and the new "Windows Feature Experience Pack"?

    There must be a lot of people wanting to see what features disappear when removing this new package.

    Thanks!

    hello master:
    1. windows released new file for "win 8.1 U3 x64" which name is "Windows8.1-KB4566425-x64.msu" in the WHD\w81\x64\Baseline\ folder
    2. toolkit still asks superseded version which name is "windows8.1-kb4562253-x64"
    do you have any recommendation for it
    thanks in advance


    So does (w10 LTSC 2019) "Win 10.0.17763.1339 (Win10 RS5 [1809]"
    does not integrate general updates. Cumulative file.
    toolkit says "The package Package_for_DotNetRollup is not applicable to the image"

    I'm not the master but:
    Edit Toolkit.cmd: find "4562253" and replace all lines with "4566425" and save the file.
    Τhat does the job.

    dear kgbab thank you for your replay

    you may right technically but:
    as you know, there are more new files
    moreover we may not know what are the superseded ones for replacing them
    I am afraid.. still we need a master..:)

    Do you need to uninstall the old one to integrate the new Edge? Or can I integrate without removing the old one?

    Does the tool work only with install.wim or also with install.esd?

    If you use install.esd, you'll need to convert to install.wim.

    Right now it contains the files related to InputApp and ScreenCliping, may be in future it will be expanded to include updates for other Windows programs, just need to wait and see what MS will be doing with future Windows releases.

    As @kgbab said do replace "4562253" and replace all lines with "4566425" and save the file, that will be fine.

    Do copy the required updates to <Packs\WHD\10> and use the Integrate WHD Update Pack menu.

    DotNetRollup package requires .NET 3.5/4.8, do use the Microsoft .NET 4.8 Pack Framework provided in the Toolkit download folder and use the Menu Integrate Microsoft .NET 4.8 Framework from Integrate menu.

    I only mount install.wim to remove junk, do I need to mount all other files?

    If you are referring to adding Toolkit's Edge Chromium pack to a image which already contains an old Edge Classic browser then it's not a problem keeping both, unless if you run the new Edge installer it will replace the old one.

    If you are referring to adding newer version of Toolkit's Edge Chromium pack to a image which already contains an older version of Toolkit's Edge Chromium pack then It's better to use a fresh image without the Edge Chromium.

    If you are referring to W10 v2009 which comes with new Edge installer integrated, then integrating the Toolkit's Edge Chromium pack will be of no use since the pre-integrated Edge installer will replace the Toolkit's Edge Chromium pack.

    With the latest Edge Chromium, the MS has added new features which replaces the old Edge classic browser and it makes it difficult to create Toolkit packs for Edge Chromium since there are too many file and registry changes.

    For removing purpose, mounting only the install.wim is sufficient.
