Slimdown11 – turn Windows 11 or LTSC 2024 into classic/legacy Windows

Does this build of DismAPI_Tool happen to break Windows updates at all?

 

If you want to compile it yourself, I can provide the source code.

 

You overestimate my skills, but I appreciate the optimism.

 

@SunLion Hello,
There is a path error in the script you provided for 26H1, and because of this, the update isn't working. Here's the line: “Data is written twice”—that's the error.

Code:

FOR /F "eol=; tokens=1,2*" %%i in (all.txt) do if not exist "%~dp0DATA\UUP\%%i" echo Downloading: "%%i" & "%~dp0DATA\DATA\tools\%HostArchitecture%\wget.exe" -q --show-progress --no-hsts --no-check-certificate -O "%%i" "%%j"

Once you fix this line, everything works normally.

Code:

FOR /F "eol=; tokens=1,2*" %%i in (all.txt) do if not exist "%~dp0DATA\UUP\%%i" echo Downloading: "%%i" & "%~dp0DATA\tools\%HostArchitecture%\wget.exe" -q --show-progress --no-hsts --no-check-certificate -O "%%i" "%%j"

Got it, thanks! By the way: it’s not just about English support, because the script doesn’t care at all what language the image is in. The issue here is either with the image you used (it no longer contains these “Capabilities,” or they have different names in it than the ones on my list). But anyway, thank you very much for your help; I’ll take another look at my code just in case...

 

Thanks to Mustafa Gotr (much better known on another site) and of course to the man
who has been tirelessly providing us with this wonderful script for a long time, SunLion .
For the work put into some things, the reward is money.
For the work put into other things,
the reward is just one word, but said from the heart and is much more valuable than money.
And it is:
Thank you .

 

Hello, @SunLion
I tested the latest script and here’s what I observed:
1- if “%DisableStore%”==“1” echo Disable Store
if “%DisableStore%”==‘0’ echo Enable Store—in both cases, the store is removed. I resolved this by adding the store to the “Remove ProvisionedAppxPackages” section.

2- The “if exist” statement was used incorrectly on the OneDrive blog; I did it this way:

Code:

ECHO.
ECHO.
echo.
echo ===========================================================
ECHO Remove OneDrive
echo ===========================================================
reg add "HKLM\TK_SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\OneDrive" /v "PreventNetworkTrafficPreUserSignIn" /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f 
reg add "HKLM\TK_SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\OneDrive" /v "DisableFileSync" /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f 
reg add "HKLM\TK_SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\OneDrive" /v "DisableFileSyncNGSC" /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f 
reg add "HKLM\TK_SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\OneDrive" /v "DisableMeteredNetworkFileSync" /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f 
reg add "HKLM\TK_SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\OneDrive" /v "DisableLibrariesDefaultSaveToOneDrive" /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f 
REM reg delete "HKLM\TK_SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\OneDrive" /v "DisableFileSyncNGSC" /f 
reg query "HKLM\TK_NTUSER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run" /v "OneDriveSetup" >nul 2>&1 && reg delete "HKLM\TK_NTUSER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run" /v "OneDriveSetup" /f
If Exist "%~dp0mount\Users\Default\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\OneDrive.lnk" del /q /f "%~dp0mount\Users\Default\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\OneDrive.lnk">nul 
If Exist "%~dp0mount\Windows\System32\OneDriveSetup.exe" del /q /f "%~dp0mount\Windows\System32\OneDriveSetup.exe" 
If Exist "%~dp0mount\Windows\SysWOW64\OneDriveSetup.exe" del /q /f "%~dp0mount\Windows\SysWOW64\OneDriveSetup.exe"

3- If “%RemoveClient%”==‘1’, echo “Remove ClickToDo - GetStarted - WindowsBackup,” the search icon definitely doesn’t work.
These are my observations; I wanted to share them in the hope that they’ll be helpful. Thank you for your work. Everything went very well; my install.wim size is now 4.90 GB.
My install.wim is 4.90 GB, yes, but I made significant changes—removing Edge and disabling Defender—which is why the size is so high.

 

I noticed one more thing: in some places it said “Integratestore” and in others “IntegratestoreLTSC,” so I made them all the same.
Changes I made:

852-853--- IntegrateStore → IntegrateStoreLTSC
2395--- IntegrateStore → IntegrateStoreLTSC

and: My list is a little different, so I wanted to share it as an example.

Code:

echo.
ECHO.
ECHO ============================================================
ECHO Remove Provisioned AppxPackages
ECHO ============================================================

set "NoRemUWPapps=Microsoft.SecHealthUI,Microsoft.DesktopAppInstaller"
set "NoRemUWPapps=%NoRemUWPapps%,Microsoft.HEIFImageExtension,Microsoft.HEVCVideoExtension,Microsoft.VP9VideoExtensions,Microsoft.WebMediaExtensions,Microsoft.WebpImageExtension"
set "NoRemUWPapps=%NoRemUWPapps%,Microsoft.Windows.CloudExperienceHost,Microsoft.AccountsControl,Microsoft.XboxIdentityProvider"
set "NoRemUWPapps=%NoRemUWPapps%,Microsoft.NET.Native,Microsoft.UI.Xaml,Microsoft.VCLibs.140.00,Microsoft.WindowsAppRuntime"
if "%DisableStore%"=="0" set "NoRemUWPapps=%NoRemUWPapps%,Microsoft.WindowsStore,Microsoft.StorePurchaseApp,Microsoft.Services.Store.Engagement"

if "%EnableMediaPlayer%"=="1" set "NoRemUWPapps=%NoRemUWPapps%,Microsoft.ZuneMusic"
if "%EnableClassicCalculator%"=="0" set "NoRemUWPapps=%NoRemUWPapps%,Microsoft.WindowsCalculator"
if "%RemoveEdge%"=="0" set "NoRemUWPapps=%NoRemUWPapps%,Microsoft.MicrosoftEdge,MicrosoftEdge,Microsoft.Win32WebViewHost"
for /f "tokens=2 delims=: " %%a in ('start "" /b "%DISM%" /English /Image:"%~dp0mount" /Get-ProvisionedAppxPackages ^| find "PackageName"') do (
    set "RemoveUWPapp=%%a"
 
    for %%u in (%NoRemUWPapps%) do (
       echo %%a | findstr /l /i /c:"%%u" >nul 2>&1 && set RemoveUWPapp=
    )

    if not "!RemoveUWPapp!"=="" (
       ECHO !RemoveUWPapp!
       "%DISM11%" /English /quiet /Image:"%~dp0mount" /Remove-ProvisionedAppxPackage /PackageName:"!RemoveUWPapp!"
    )
)

 

There's one more important thing—please check the :skipNetfx3 tag. It looks like it's in the wrong place.

 

I find in my tests the search icon doesn't automatically show, just a matter of toggling in taskbar settings.

 

You're absolutely right—I didn't notice that... I went over the entire script and checked all the code line by line... I think I'll finish it today. Thank you.
