    After creating the iso, are there some settings applied default to the browsers we install? I have installed Firefox but it says it is managed by an organization and it disables most of the stuff I would like.

    Yes.

    Note lines 2010 through 2168 in the Slimdown10.cmd script
    If you do not want to apply the changes, comment the corresponding lines with "rem" or "::" at the beginning of the line.

    If you missed it when creating the ISO, check registry under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\YOUR\BROWSER (and similar) and delete unwanted stuff to regain control of your browser.

    Example settings, but these are the ones I keep. There are more for Crome, Thunderbird, etc.
    Code:
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Mozilla\Firefox]
    "DisablePocket"=dword:00000001
    "DisableTelemetry"=dword:00000001
    "AppAutoUpdate"=dword:00000000
    "BackgroundAppUpdate"=dword:00000000
    "DisableAppUpdate"=dword:00000001
    "DisableFirefoxStudies"=dword:00000001
    
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Mozilla\Firefox\FirefoxHome]
    "TopSites"=dword:00000000
    "SponsoredTopSites"=dword:00000000
    "Highlights"=dword:00000000
    "Pocket"=dword:00000000
    "SponsoredPocket"=dword:00000000
    "Snippets"=dword:00000000
    "WebSuggestions"=dword:00000000
    "SponsoredSuggestions"=dword:00000000
    "ImproveSuggest"=dword:00000000
    
    Etc. Etc.

    This script is compatible with updated iso, like: en-us_windows_10_consumer_editions_version_22h2_updated_april_2024_x64_dvd_9a92dc89?

    I edited my Post 1115 with info about Action Center (Notifications) being disabled, in case I missed the point about it the first time.

    i am using the online version from dark dinosaur of this script. works fine for me on windows 11 23H2 i have edited and also added my own registries.
    now the question is this. i am using now 24H2 wich was leaked. but it seems some entries are changed, or registry path is different. some settings are not applied.
    any easy way to update registries if that is the case.? or like have an UpToDate version.
    i was told to

    Why not "query" all the keys you are trying to customize?
    e.g.
    reg query HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Desktop\NameSpace_36354489\{F874310E-B6B7-47DC-BC84-B9E6B38F5903}

    An error will be displayed if the key does not exist.
