    After applying $ OEM $ I have this explorer look - https://prnt.sc/10tgqbk
    And yet I prefer the standard - https://prnt.sc/10tgshc
    This is after applying extra reg tweaks
    What to change-delete in the script to get the default explorer look?

    It is very extensive.

    Enable Navigation Panel via My Computer File Explorer click on View then Nav Panel & click all there.

    There you go . you will have the default look from there onwards.

    Found 2 hidden telemetry powershell scripts in win directory.
    if we search word 'telemetry' & 'telrunner' in c: drive or windows directory we get lots of resources related to it as json, manifests , ps1 , ppkg etc etc .
    %programdata%/microsoft is also used by m$ for there telemetry logs.
    done lots of changes to $OEM$ PACK since 2 days still some are in pending.

    For the life of me, I can't figure out, WPD app sets the two reg entries off by the DWord:0 like this :
    Code:
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\SQM]
    "DisableCustomerImprovementProgram"=dword:00000000
    
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\ScriptedDiagnosticsProvider\Policy]
    "DisableQueryRemoteServer"=dword:00000000
    But doesn't the dword:00000000 means "NO" i.e. don't disable, keep enabled ?

    Found them in your setupcomplete.cmd and as I suspected, WPD got it wrong, 0 means telemetry is enabled. It should be 1.

    Thanks.

    Working on a Offline Script tool to install Win7 on any Intel Harware in Pure EFI with GPT Disk Layout Gen 4 till Latest Generation CPU.
    Will Release It either in mid of this month or As a May 2021 gift for MDL.
    Almost downloaded All Win 7 tools & scripts of about 28GB in Disk Size.
    This offline win7 script tool will be a mixture of all the tools so i i wont take any credits for that Just to be very fair as usual i am.

    Thank you for the script to disable extra services.

    However, I think you should warn people not to disable the service "TCP/IP NetBIOS Helper" (lmhosts).
    My home network stopped working, and I had to figure out, which service was the culprit.

    Just a suggestion

    :)

    Thank you @mdl052020

    According to the documentation "lmhosts" provides support for the NetBIOS over TCP/IP service and NetBIOS name resolution for clients on the network.
    Therefore enabling users to share files, print, and log on to the network.

    Just what I found

    Hmm means you need to either share files over network or Print via network .
    but
    to log in into a network via ethernet or wifi or either via setting up a dial up connection i am not having any issue while disabled lmhosts service.

    here i am reffering log in into a network as accessing internet via ethernet or via wifi or via dial up connection.

    if you have any other case in your scenario using NAT , SWITCH or for Network Administration then i think for some tools you need lmhosts service to be enabled & set to manual as default.

    I have use the debloater with no error except the last step " Clearing WinSxS Store Components With ResetBase"

    Error: 0x800f0806

    The operation could not be completed due to pending operations.

    My question: Could anyone tell me a list of all the stuff that can be safely removed in each powershell script?

    1 in list for Windows apps you can select all from list & click ok as all of them have removable policy as default.
    2nd in list Friend its already there Safe System Apps Removal List .
    3rd in list For Features i will update the list again with new image
    4th in list For Capabilities i will upload a new image again with new list.
    5th auto removal of onedrive

    Friend now comes your error about pending operations cuz you might have enabled nerfx3 feature previously.
    please dont use any feature update on offline win image whixh will result in error on clearing winsxs components with reset base.
    or might be you have updated your win10 iso same wim index using any tool except w10ui which worked flawlessly here for me with superseeded & resetbase enabled in its ini file.

    thanks & regards.
