    actually nice features, using registry to modify.
    Code:
    reg add "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Search" /f /v SearchboxTaskbarMode /t reg_dword /d 2
    reg add "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced" /f /v ShowTaskViewButton /t reg_dword /d 1

    New 22631.3668 build uses some new registry entries to create "Home" and "Gallery" in Navigation Panel. Old tweaks to remove those are not working... Does anyone know what the new registry entries are for those items?

    Why not "query" all the keys you are trying to customize?
    e.g.
    reg query HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Desktop\NameSpace_36354489\{F874310E-B6B7-47DC-BC84-B9E6B38F5903}

    An error will be displayed if the key does not exist.

    It's a pain, but I think you have to check them one by one.
    If I were to do that.
    Sort the entire script and extract only the addresses.
    Then replace "HKEY_" with "reg query HKEY_".
    I'm not familiar with scripts, so this is the only way I can think of.

    your phone does that too, oops
    took me months like 3 or 4 to fix 11 22h2, was very tempted to go for 24h2 and waste another many hours of my life to make 24h2 work the way i want, been thinking lately and it came to me that i dont really need windows for things i do so maybe its time for linux again.

    you can stay on IOT or LTSC if you like. maybe they better.
    LTSC 2024 comes with AI COPYPILOT too, too bad.

    okay, I take it back - the assumed part about Windows 10 WD
    After I allegedly run untrusted software and decided to check system with defender, I enabled it in group policy edits, allow it download updates... after that I was not able to turn it off.
    so basically, Windows defender in W10 and W11 are the same thing, once it updates itself there is no way to turn it off other than running 3rd party software designed specifically to turn it off (haven't tried to boot windows 10 in safe mode and turning services off in registry).
    in fact, W10 WD are even more intrusive as it was still running antivirus checks in background and detecting cracks and game trainers with realtime protection turned off (albeit W11 WD probably was doing the same, I just haven't noticed it? Maybe? At least, in virtualbox environment it may not check system so often)

    Press on the tile with right click and choose "Edit quick settings" and then you'll find the option to delete.
