Honestly, I haven't studied this behavior in depth. I don't think 100% of the 8.3 files should be removed, perhaps because they are in use or for some other reason. The best position in the script is at the end. However, the amount found above is insignificant compared to the amount removed by the script.
This Defender code, written by WKeller, has been maintained without any changes. I don't particularly like it and don't use defend. But I'll try to check.
I made some changes to the script and tested it here. It seems to be working. I would like you to test it too and report back the results, please. Use this script within the same folder and run start as administrator. SD10v202_72_without_EDGE+Defender.7z password: mdl2024
This is what I got. Search Box - disable wlidsvc - disable sppsvc - disable clipsvc - disable DPS (Diagnostics Policy Service) still remains disable I hope this can be enabled, or at least there is a way to re-enable. and still want windows spotlight Spoiler Code: =========================================================== Selected Settings =========================================================== IntegrateUpdates DisableWindowsSearch Enable Modern Calculator RemoveSystemUWPappsAlsoFromDisk EnableNetFx3 DisableBitlockerEncryption Do Not DisableWIFI Disable Copilot in not LTSC Aplly PoliciesForOtherChromiumBrowsers PoliciesForMozillaBrowsers IntegrateDaRT Do Not Aplly WindowsUpdateTweaks Do Not DisableWindowsUpdateByDefault Do Not DisableCBSlogging Do Not DisableDriversFromWU Do Not DisableInternetConnectionChecking Do Not DisablePrefetcher DisableCDAutoPlay DisablePerfCounters Enable full Windows Defender functionality, except SpyNet controlled by the switch DisableSpyNet DisableSpyNet Enable Windows Store, Desktop Appx Installer and Windows Update DisableOneDrive AddWinHlp Do Not Add FakeMDM IncludeWindowsRegulatedPackagesInLTSC DisableAdditionalServices Do Not SplitInstallWim Do Not CreateISO
I can enable wsl online or offline using this code in dism What is the cleanest way to incorporate this into SD? Code: dism.exe /online /enable-feature /featurename:Microsoft-Windows-Subsystem-Linux /all /norestart Dism /Image:C:\zmount /Enable-Feature /featurename:Microsoft-Windows-Subsystem-Linux /all /Source:C:\zmount
Yes, it works. If you want to test it, add the lines below in the script, right after "Unmounting Registry....":
Hello, thank you for making and maintaining this script. Been a long time Optimize-Offline user and this looks like a good continuation of it. I've just installed a fresh W10 LTSC IoT with this script (Start64withoutEDGE) and outside of a few annoyances, which I hope you can help me resolve, everything works great. 1) Custom sound levels don't get saved (e.g. set sound level for Windows sounds to 20, on reboot goes back to default 64). 2) Can't synchronize time or launch Windows Time settings at all. 3) Nothing gets saved in jump lists, recent items, run dialogs, search bars, etc no history at all. *EDIT: noticed another problem*: 4) GPU doesn't show up in Task Manager under Performance tab (I'm guessing this is because of the Performance counters setting?) It's like the system goes back to default every time you reboot, obviously... I hate this. Trying to go through the script atm to see which GPO / registry policies have been set to try and fix it. Could you help me out? Thanks in advance.
I'll try to figure out what's going on. I can't tell you what might be causing this right now. It could be a disabled service or a tweak. Let's try...
I found line 2801 to 2820 for the time and NTP issue. Code: echo Set default NTP time server ... echo Disable Time Sync NTP server ... echo Disable Time Sync entirely Would be good to have toggles for these kinds of options.
I did some tests after modifying the script, removing some codes, including the one you mentioned above. Use this test script in the same folder that contains the files, etc. Please do your tests and report back the results. SD10v202_75_without_EDGE_Test.7z password: mdl2025
