So no solution to run script on Server OS, Hmmm.. I tried to edit .ps1 and psm1 with Notepad3, but no success yet ! Really appreciate your support/help, Thanks
You can customize any windows 10 version from 1809 above (with God Hands original script). I modify Server 1903 last year. I cannot remember which files I changed but I know it was not not a big deal. Just go deeper inside relevant files and remove word "Server"
Two questions about W11 Pro. 1. Is it possible to integrate Edge Removal Script by BAU? https://forums.mydigitallife.net/threads/microsoft-edge.79237/page-137#post-1630576 It seems to work in w11. 2. DisableWindowsUpdate Does it work for w11? I did set it to true, but WU is still enabled and seeks for updates.
Hello there, To respond your questions: 1. Will give it a try and let you know 2. Can you try DisableWindowsUpdateMicrosoft it completely shuts down communication with microsoft. DisableWindowsUpdate is mostly to disable cummulative updates to your windows version. Will update the readme with this info. EDIT1: DisableWindowsUpdateMicrosoft disables also Microsoft Store downloads. If you want just to simply disable the windows update service use the disable services list and add there the windows update service and it's related services. But even in this case Store might complain as it uses those services for downloading the apps.
I used the Edge removal script, now some apps that open links are complaining they cannot open them, even though I have Chrome as my default browser. Like in Discord when I click on a link. The same thing happens if you remove Edge with Optimize Offline, which is why I don't. The links will open with Chrome properly.
ChrEdgeFkOff to the rescue - Works great regardless of Edge / ChrEdge / PieceOfs**tEdge installed or removed
Ok have 2 days trying to successfully remove edge, i just don't get it, the app in the program files, is not at all removable by the Remove-AppxProvisionedPackage, tried what @BAU is doing in offline wim, it complains that files are in use??? After using @BAU script, edge was eradicated in online image, then i tried to install edge insider, by manually downloading it, it installed and then as soon as you open it just closes. Ok makes sense, once you remove it, there is no turning back I have heard about scripts that windows executes at first login attempt. Maybe we could put that to be triggered on the first login?
@gdeliana Small bug, if you exit out of the TUA script without it finishing and rerun it, it doesn't delete the previous temp folder. However, if I exit out early and run the populateTemplates.bat it DOES delete the previous temp folder. Sometimes the script will exit from a wrong setting or I close it early as I see something I never wanted to disable as I run it, why I ask. Edit: Oh wait, yeah, never deleted old temp directory.
2 questions KedarWolf. 1) How do you run the SetAdditional.cmd? After windows installation or while creating the image? 2) # Disable Clipboard history, its synchronization service and any Remote Desktop redirection. <--what this does exactly?
You run it after installing the operating system. It just stops some spying stuff Microsoft does but breaks the copy\paste function in the Search Box in the taskbar and the Search Box in File Explorer, which is a deal-breaker for me, why I don't leave it in.
Ok I wanted to understand if it breaks some functionality with Remote Desktop since I use it a lot these days. Thank you
Yeah, it might affect functionality. Also, there are some services disabled might affect it as well. Here is the list and there is a Remote Registry service.
