    So what's the problem? Install it and see the difference. It's not for nothing that they say: it's better to see once than hear a hundred times.

    If you don't use system search, you can use the following registry, which will significantly reduce system resource consumption.
    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Search]
    "DisableSearch"=dword:00000001

    This script also allows you to completely uninstall edge? and how to use them separately? If let's say I have installed in C:\mount thank you

    So why use them separately? Add this block to the general SunLion script and everything will be OK.

    Ok just ran the latest Gamer Ver 5 in a VM exactly the same result!

    @sainfo if you have no answer, please can someone else perhaps chime in to explain why this happens?
    I like this build until @SunLion releases his latest SD version.

    Well, we are trying to do it, but it doesn't work yet. You don't want to share your tool with us, so that we don't suffer.

    There are no special tools, it's just about manually streamlining one function at a time, and collecting which functions require which files to keep, ultimately resulting in a finished product.Then test whether the system is running normally.
    Example: Bluetooth, keep it if needed, remove it if not needed.

    It is clear that this is very difficult for a simple user. I used all your suggestions and combined them into one executable script. But, unfortunately, this did not lead to a decrease in the size of the install.wim image, which is a shame.n Then our only hope is left on SunLion, we will wait for new solutions of his script.

    He is already registered there, why add more?

    Why do you edit and adapt it to yourself? Use it as it is.


    p.s Is there just a script for removing only Edge and Defender? Just drop it in the ISO folder or the install folder, click and it's done.

    These codes are usually applied together with the others, since many of them are interconnected.

    Note that the script does this offline.

    You could extract the part you are interested in to a separate script and try it to see if it works.

    I'm testing the updated script for 26100.4349, with some changes and adding something from @sainfo's script.

    I'll wait for @balanadi's response to see if he can help us at least take the initial steps on how to modify the .mum files for Windows 11.

    Please be patient...

    I made a small adjustment to the script to see if this fixes it.

    Let's see if it works...
