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

I will try to have a look, last time i tested in 22000 IOT i got a light non transparent theme by default when windows started up.

 

The OutputPath option is ready to be used. I have tested as much as i could but testing more, never hurts

You can set the key: "OutputPath" in configuration.json to the following:

1. Default - default OO behavior
2. Select - Shows a save file dialog with filename option, default filename is the OO default chosen
3. Put your own path with filename (for non iso, filename will be ignored)

Things to consider:

• Filename works only for the .iso, for wim|esd|swm only chosing the folder works, filename will always be install.wim|esd|swm
• ISO filename can have the variable {filename} which will be replaced with the OO default filename (ex. Professional_22000.iso), but the path you chose will remain
• Together with the path you chose to save the output, there will be exported also the rest of the normal output files of the script, such as the Error.zip file etc.

Let me know if it's OK how it works. As usual use the master branch latest commit to test it

 

@gdeliana - thanks for the update. I tested this change and I'm not a huge fan of dumping all output into the OutputPath variable, I was thinking just the ISO would be dumped there. Deleting a folder isn't a huge chore for me anyways so I don't see an issue with you dumping the output text files as to how you were doing it before and moving the ISO to the OutputPath (assuming it's filled). Question, if I wanted to name the file, how do I do that exactly? Just "OutputPath":"<destination>\filename.iso" ? Now don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to speak for the entire board so if I'm in the minority and no one cares about it, then I'll live with how it is currently (or just delete the variable). Thanks again for your work.

Edit: One option is to have a variable to not have the log files created? This way, just the ISO would be generated. Just a thought. I know one wants to avoid feature creep and soon the config file will have 100 options.

 

I can manage to save the OO error and other script files to the default directory of the script, and only the iso/wim/esd/swm to the desired path.

Yes you can directly specify the path like this: "C:\my_output.iso"
Or you can do also this: "C:\{filename}" and it will be replaced {filename} with the default OO filename (ex. Professional_22000.iso etc.)

 

Check the latest master, it should do now exactly what you need.

 

Thanks, I'll just assume it works and will test when the new CU is released next week. Can we do anything about the pinned apps on the Start menu upon first installation? (lines 2308 - 2313 on master in Optimize-Offline.psm1) I'm always finding myself just unpinning those icons after an O-O installation.

 

Yes sure, will check that region as well

 

I noticed line 9 in Configuration.json (on master) has a spelling error.

"OutputPath : default | path[{filaneme}?] | select"
should be (I assume)
"OutputPath : default | path[{filename}?] | select"

 

@KedarWolf
I will try once again the amoled tweak. For this i will need 2 things:

• UUP-dump link with configuration
• Configuration.json of OO

Thanks

 

Updated the Configuration.json info section and as well added the readme. Let me know if any grammatical errors, English is not my mother tongue

 

OK, as you wish, just pm me the link and i will test with that iso.

I went to O-O a 19044.1706 image and got this error using the newest committed version:

[ERROR]: The image has been flagged for corruption. Further servicing is required before the image can be optimized.

I'll try again with version 5 and will report the results.

Edit: Same error with version 5. O-O was working prior to me adding the latest defender update cab so I have a feeling this is related to that.
Edit2: Re-downloaded the defender update and re-ran W10UI. The final ISO is bigger so that tells me something went wrong during the creation. Re-ran O-O and now we're past that error message so all's well that ends well.

 

Friends, lost a drive a few days ago & piecing my OO back together though in error!
Here is my JSON Config, complains of PSpath though sure are correct.
