What is your host OS for disabling telemetry... Windows 10 or 11? Did you run disable_telemetry script as trusted installer?
In the Microsoft Catalog, the Feb 11 CU for 21H2 only shows Windows 10 LTSB for the supported product, would this be an issue? The June 11 update shows support for Windows 10, version 1903 and later, Windows 10 LTSB, which is why I went with that, as I am trying to cover all my bases with getting this to work. There is a Feb 11 for 22H2, but would I then need to include the 22H2 enablement package under rem == add cumulative updates = in the disable_telemetry.cmd? I did not backup, rename and restore licenses. I did not see this step mentioned in the readme or the main post of the Reconstruction thread. I would like to try it, which cmd file would I include those lines in? And should those lines be pasted before a specific line? Edit: found a post where you mentioned this step. Scanning through the code you pasted, I assume I just have to throw the code that into its own .cmd and run it, and it will do the backup, renaming, run the EntG conversion process, and then restore. I will give it a go. Thank you
KB5051974 (February 11, 2025) is to update to builds 19044.5487 and 19045.5487 so it's also for LTSC 2021 You can use 21H2 or 22H2 enablement package (Personally I stick with 21H2) and yes, add it when adding CU Just add the code to your script Backup licenses folders before reconstructing to EnterpriseG then restore the renamed licenses folders after reconstruction (before disabling telemetry) Code: rem == backup and rename licenses folders == xcopy /S /E /I /H /R /Y /J mount\Windows\System32\en-US\Licenses temp\Licenses ren temp\Licenses\_Default\Professional EnterpriseG ren temp\Licenses\OEM\Professional EnterpriseG ren temp\Licenses\Volume\Professional EnterpriseG rem == install enterpriseG and remove professional edition == dism /scratchdir:temp /image:mount /apply-unattend:sxs\1.xml rem == add language pack == dism /scratchdir:temp /image:mount /add-package:lp\update.mum rem == add enterpriseG licenses == rd /s /q mount\Windows\System32\en-US\Licenses xcopy /E /C /H /R /Y /I temp\Licenses mount\Windows\System32\en-US\Licenses
Edit: My head is spinning while I'm trying to do this with the flu. I finally figured it out and it worked as intended in VMs and bare metal. Thank you very much

@freddie-o Is this the latest of your scripts? Do you still recommend it for Win10 LTSC 2021? Or something else? I'm looking for offline fix to disable Windows Defender and minimize unnecessary system activity, not total telemetry disabler. Spoiler
You can just use the parts of the script that disable Defender. With regards to minimizing unecessary system activity, it depends on what you consider unecessary system activity. You'll have to refer to other threads on that topic.
Hi! Take a look, maybe this will suit you.
