    @SunLion Tested 1.41 in a VM. Modern calc is now working used the update APPX method in the script.
    Minor issue: I selected "Icons you want show on the Desktop" to "[ 4 ] - ThisPC + Bin + User + ControlPanel + Network"
    Though failed to show on the desktop?
    Agree an option to remove Outlook is appreciated.

    I already have the script to remove Outlook and it works fine.

    See attached images before and after removal.

    I'll check the problem with the icons.

    The problem with the icons was that I removed the PowerShell code for importing the .reg files in the Tweaks folder, which was responsible for that task.

    That has also been fixed.

    @SunLion good news :)
    Both with version 1.38 and 1.41, by applying some minor fixes (and without messing up the versions of winsetup.dll) I’m able to build an ISO that can do an in-place upgrade.

    Thank you for your great work

    Hi SunLion
    I would suggest that, before running the script, the user edit the autounattend.xml file, replacing <Username>SunLion</Username> and <Name>SunLion</Name> with the name they want.

    Yes, you're right.

    This had already been pointed out in previous versions.

    But I'll reinforce it again!

    Thank you.

    The following reminder has been added to the first page:

    ###########################################################
    There is now an Autounattend.xml file that is copied to the DVD folder.
    ###########################################################

    Before using it, you must:
    1 - Change the nickname from SunLion to your nickname
    2 - Change the timezone to the one corresponding to your region.

    Is it possible that using a name that is written in Cyrillic won't cause problems?

    If it's for another continent and another time zone - for example, "Eastern European Time" - should we literally understand that it should be replaced and rewritten as "Eastern European Time"?!

    tested on VM, as smooth as SD10_Renewed_1.41. Outlook has been removed. Default user ID changes to siliconbeaver from SunLion :p

    edge and classic apps working fine. its installed OS size 10.5 GB (same as SD10_Renewed_1.41).

    are necessary Utilities (Activation Status, CurrentBuild, ToggleWindowsUpdate_v3.5 , , ,)? W10 OS has offerred these features.


    Thank SunLion,

    These tools are useful and easily accessible in the form of utilities.

    However, it's up to each individual to install them or not. Simply remove the .exe file from the addons folder to prevent installation.

    ToggleWindowsUpdate is important if you want to temporarily enable Windows Update.

    I managed to do the in-place upgrade by making these changes:

    In the SD10_Renewed_1.xx_Start.cmd script, I added these lines in the Cleaning install.wim image section

    Code:
    ATTRIB -S -H "%~dp0mount\Windows\Web\Screen\img100.jpg" >nul 2>&1
    del /f /q "%~dp0mount\Windows\Web\Screen\img100.jpg" >nul 2>&1
    ATTRIB -S -H "%~dp0mount\Windows\Web\Wallpaper\Windows\img0.jpg" >nul 2>&1
    del /f /q "%~dp0mount\Windows\Web\Wallpaper\Windows\img0.jpg" >nul 2>&1

    In the Win10x64.cmd script, I modified the elevation part — the expansion of the _Args variable was causing issues for me and the script didn't start after first login.

    Code:
       Set _batchFile=%~f0
       Set _Args=%*
       :: double up any quotes
       Set _batchFile=""%_batchFile:"=%""
       Set _Args=%_Args:"=""%
    
    (
       Echo Set UAC = CreateObject^("Shell.Application"^)
       Echo UAC.ShellExecute "cmd", "/c ""%_batchFile%""", "", "runas", 1
    ) > "%temp%\~ElevateMe.vbs"
    
       cscript "%temp%\~ElevateMe.vbs"
       Exit /B
    Nothing else :)

    Of course, before creating the ISO with _CreateISO, I copied into the DVD folder all the missing files needed to launch the setup, taking them from the original ISO.
