Slimdown10 – turn Windows 10 22H2 or LTSC 2021 into classic/legacy Windows

Discussion in 'Windows 10' started by Deleted member 190847, Feb 15, 2023.

    Personally, I will probably never make online version. Main reason is that my time/work has value and entire this project is still just a hobby.
    I have chosen offline version because it is easier to do and more appropriate.

    For example, you need just one registry tweak to effectively disable unwanted System UWP Application (like Search Bar). But that setting will not work once applied in online version.
    In short: it is not that easy and straightforward to convert the script from offline to online version as it seems to be.

    If someone want online version, he could create own fork of my script (like @Dark Dinosaur did). Of course, I have no direct responsibility of quality of these forks as I have no impact on them.

    So now that LTSC 2021 is supported, which one is recommended and why?

    Delete the logfile and run the script again, look for any kind of error similar to the one in the script. Also are the updates applicable/corrent?
    Also to be safe, dont use any spacing in the path, use "-" or "_"

    Hmmm.... Currently I have no IoT to test, but I have tested pl-pl_windows_10_enterprise_ltsc_2021_x64_dvd_eff40776.iso which I have.

    And entire process went smoothly - from start up to the installation on Oracle VirtualBox.
    No errors of any kind.

    Second test.

    I used Slimdown10 v.1.58 again.

    For the base again I used en-us_windows_10_iot_enterprise_ltsc_2021_x64_dvd_257ad90f.iso.

    But this time the scenario was - choosing option 1 - only LTSC (no IoT).

    The entire process of the script went successfully and without any error anywhere.

    As I understand after my two tests - this file "windows10.0-kb5028951-x64.msu" is causing problem and/or incompatible with IoT LTSC (but not causing problem for only LTSC (without IoT).

    So @wkeller, you can test at a later stage (when you have time) and fix the cause of the problem - in the picture which is in an earlier comment of mine, so that your script is also supported for IoT LTSC.

    @Ace2, you are wrong, this en-us_windows_10_iot_enterprise_ltsc_2021_x64_dvd_257ad90f.iso also turned out to be error free, but only when selecting position 1. :clap:

    Just in case, I also add a log file with the successful end of the script.

    How can i be wrong when i have used the right iso with no errors, and you are the one using the wrong iso and get errors, just because you are selecting position 1 and it works don't make you right. :rolleyes::bashtroll:

    Got the H22 update and this may not be related but it may. Reboot and it froze. Win 7 on the drive no reboot. Another HDD no reboot. Win screen starts and freezes. Kali on a flash drive same thing. Everything perfect until it tries to download the OS it freezes. What's going on
