    Working on a win 11 image using SD11v202_4.8.40
    Would like to make this without the win32calc & use the std win 11 calc
    in uwp keep section I filled this:
    Code:
    :: All user UWP applications listed in \Program Files\WindowsApps will be removed with the exception of the following list
    :: In other words: It is the list of UWP apps that you want to keep. I deleted the win32 calc part of the script.
    if "%Build%"=="26100" (
        set "IncludeUWPapps=Microsoft.VCLibs.140.00_14,Microsoft.WindowsCalculator,Microsoft.HEIFImageExtension,Microsoft.VP9VideoExtensions,Microsoft.WebMediaExtensions,Microsoft.WebpImageExtension,Microsoft.HEVCVideoExtension"
    )
    Once slimdown completed with no errors I ran in a VM & find the std calc in the start menu though it wont open?

    Did you download the Microsoft.WindowsCalculator_8wekyb3d8bbwe package and place it in the hotfixes\APPX folder?

    For testing, you should comment out or remove the "Enable classic Win32 Calculator" lines (3336 through 3367) in the script.

    SunLion Thank you, no I didn't place it in the appx folder! Previously in Win 10 this was not required.
    Re downloading Microsoft.WindowsCalculator_8wekyb3d8bbwe can only find the setup.exe download & not the WindowsCalculator_8wekyb3d8bbwe.msixbundle file?

    I welcome everyone to this resource. Very interesting and useful information about working with images is discussed here. But I have another problem: I need to reduce the size of the boot.wim file as much as possible. It is clear that only index 2 in this file is of interest. I can’t find any normal material on this topic on the Internet, can anyone suggest either a link to this material or normal solution?

    How to return a Windows Store app?
    Press Windows key + R to open the Run dialog box. Type "cmd" and press Ctrl + Shift + Enter to open an elevated Command Prompt. This command will reinstall the Microsoft Store app on your system. After the command completes, close Command Prompt and try opening Microsoft Store again.

    If you don’t have a Store at all, then run it as PowerShell Administrator and Enter wsreset –i . After this simple procedure, the Store will be automatically installed.

    Well, reinstall it (remove the installed one and install it again), what’s the problem? If you don’t want to reinstall it, then allow it to work in services (set it to Auto).

    This simply cannot happen. I've done these steps many times and never had a problem with it. It's not clear why you have a problem with this. Perhaps you are using some kind of homemade assembly with broken functions? On a clean OS or normal build, everything should work without issue. Good luck!

    I did some tests here and there is no way.

    1 - Enabling Store=1

    I tried to download calculator from store and it was not possible: error (see attached images)

    2 - In the normal option, without store SD11v202_4.8.40, everything is normal, with the system calculator working normally.

    3 - Updating calculator, as mentioned before, two shortcuts to calculator appear: one from the system and another that does not work.

    My opinion

    Continue with the normal script, which works very well.

    I didn't notice any errors in the log file.

    As I said above, the update occurs without errors, but the file doesn't open. This causes two Calculators to appear, one from the system and this one that was integrated. See the attached image.

    The link to the system calculator works without errors.

    I also checked several threads on MS about problems with this application in Windows 11.

    They say they are aware of the problem and will solve it...

    So I say again: continue with the normal script, without adding this calculator file for the update.

    The system calculator is simple, but it works.

    Hi, how are things going with LTSC? Or have you not dealt with this topic yet?
