Optimize-Offline Guide - Windows Debloating Tool, Windows 1803, 1903, 19H2, 1909, 20H1 and LTSC 2019

Why are you so rude all the time, if you are an expert at anything then don't become an over confident veteran, become a teacher, forums are made to help each other not to criticize others and not to pointing out their mistakes all the time.
Enough said now, thank you for all your help

Good to know

@gdeliana... from an earlier suggestion by @spanishfly, for further automating the process

Code:

       Try
       {
               #$CompressionType = 'Solid'
               $CompressionType = 'Maximum'
               #$CompressionType = 'Fast'
               #$CompressionType = 'None'
               #$CompressionType = Get-CompressionType -ErrorAction Stop

user could then simply edit the .psm1 file (prior to running script), uncommenting their preferred compression method.

have made the compression type as a parameter in configuration.json named CompressionType
If you put select it will show the selection window, otherwise it will use the value inputted. By default have put maximum
Thanks for hinting

Ok, guys test and let me know, the path to modding windows is loooong

We have to do this on our own, because Microsoft has become a crap company in every sense, but yeah a bit off topic i guess

... was under the impression (thought) that this was a Store dependency
