    Here is Command Line after fresh install:

    PS. And yes, UsoSvc is disabled intentionally, unless Windows Store is enabled or Toggle Windows Update was launched.

    You can't get rid of it, but you can hide it from explorer using many ways, one of them being the great winaerotweaker utility, which as the option to hide any drive letter you want (among many other essentials tweaks)

    edit: nevermind....

    Edit again: Would it be possible to have a config.ini or similar that the script reads?
    I think it would be easier to customize even tho it really isnt what it was made for

    Hi
    Thanks for the quick respond.
    I'v got the offline installer as an exe-file from HP.
    Do I have to turn on update or something else anyways ?

    Slimdown have Windows update off by default, if you got your driver, no reason to turn on

    - Turn on Windows Update by running Toogle Windows Update
    - Reboot
    - Install your driver

    As I said, the UserSetup.cmd launched by registry key "HKLM\TK_NTUSER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run" doesn't have administrator rights. I have made tests and I confirmed that. So the "sc config" commands (among others) in UserSetup.cmd DO NOT work.

    This seems a bit off-topic...

    I have a LTSC 2019 HWID activated in the past. When i re-run/install this (updated) version, not modified in anyway...It's not (auto)activated either way? So what's that issue anyways :p ? After running MAS it's hwid activated once more...

    Keep up the good work on all this mess :)

    HWID activation on LTSx is pointless. You tell MS that you're using it but you don't get the automatic activation in change.

    Just use KMS38 and live long and prosper.

    As I have said. I have tested, and it DID work. You don't believe in the screenshot ? Do you think I have posted mystification ?

    Please do stop spreading misinformation and don't waste my time for pointless discussion. You are dead wrong.
    The account created during setup is Admin account and UAC is disabled (by the script), so it has all privileges.
