I'm using the latest version which is 2.3.7.8826. I can no longer find PowerShell 2.0 to be removed.

For you who use barebones services maybe not :p but I noticed that by default LTSC 2021 (21H2) has more services running by default and more dependencies for features. For example, screen brightness control on latops and night light need more services running in the background than LTSC 2019 (1809).

Yes, gamers are forced to update more often than usual. But even for those if the hardware is not so new LTSC 2019 is still a good build and lighter than LTSC 2021.

In fact the UI is heavier in terms of resource usage but in everything else I feel the OS is more fluid in general usage like copying files, navigating between folders and files in File Explorer, opening programs, etc. With me Win7 has several choking doing the same tasks. But on very old...

The bad thing about 8.1 is its UI and the introduction of windows apps and store. But its core (performance and features) is even better than 7. Windows 10 in relation to 8.1 only evolved its UI and very little of its core for desktop users. Some programs have already removed support for 7 and...

On Win10 21H2 and LTSC 1809 I removed this and had no problems.

I noticed that too. For me this is Microsoft's incompetence or negligence in making an optimized OS. It's easier to demand that everyone have modern hardware so you can suck up resources like there's no tomorrow and no one will complain. Win7/8.1 can do everything that Win10/11 does and doesn't...

I was going to reply about this but forgot, wouldn't it be DesktopAppInstaller?

https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000055210/graphics.html I don't have compatible intel video to test this :(

But NTLite removes everything related to the Store along with your app. Microsoft Store Install Service is an example. That's why I asked nuhi if it's possible to split this. But I don't know what is actually needed for Intel drivers for example to install the control panel automatically. I gave...

From 2004 to 20H2, 21H1 and 21H2 nothing changes regarding the present components, this is just an Enablement Package. So the same preset works for all these versions.

nuhi would it be possible to split the Store from your backend which is needed for 3rd party drivers to download uwp apps? I mean files and services, as in LTSC 1809 which doesn't have the Store app but has the Microsoft Store Install Service for example.

What driver version? I'm using 497.09 and the only less obvious thing I had to keep was bind filter driver. I looked at your preset and didn't see anything wrong with it, but I'll see if I can find time to test it. I just need to remember how to install uwp apps with powershell so I can install...

garlin thank you, and sorry for the delay. So just keep what is necessary for Windows to be able to install UWP apps and for them to have their basic functionality. I believe that control panels do not need all components protected by Windows Store compatibility. For example, 'Sync Host' must...

It remains to say which control panels do not work. Nvidia uwp control panel doesn't need anything special just bind filter driver. But I'm interested in knowing the minimum required for intel, amd, realtek etc uwp control panels to work. The setup of the intel and amd drivers does not install...
