Another thing. I tried it in a VM with my edited preset and all it seemed to do was update Windows. It ended up with Edge, OneDrive, etc, all returning. This leads me to believe that it didn't use my preset. (Edge agree OneDrive are removed in my preset)
Did I do it wrong? I gave it a fresh...
Yep, I removed the lines you mentioned. Any idea about those other 3 xbox ones i mentioned?
Depending on how it works and what a "reinstall" entails, I'm worried about data loss. But I'll try it in a VM first to see how it works and get experience in before I do it.
Thanks for your help. Especially since this is basically a lower-effort "help me" post.
This sounds good. Until now I havent had to use the Host Refresh functionality. I'll keep reading the guide, but is it basically just updating the host to a state specified by the preset that I give it in...
Thanks, I appreciate the reply. Xbox is needed for some store apps then? And what about these other Xbox-related components? Are they needed?
Additionally, is there a way to patch/integrate those removed components into a live system without a reinstall? (Either using NTLite or not)
Lastly...
Hi. I'm wondering if my preset breaks the windows store because even though I'm able to use it to install most applications from it, some dont work. (Such as the new minecraft launcher and the "Gaming Services" thing)
Attached is my preset. Ignore the post-setup files, those are benign and not...
Yeah, I checked the update history and nothing was there. I didnt go as far as to watch network activity since I didnt have any of the usual tools to do so installed on the VM.
I only integrated the main registry values found in your top-most spoiler titled "Windows Update", alongside one in...
I integrated these registry values into my NTLite image and it seems to work. However, I did notice my windows send a notification saying that they are installing a new feature. The windows update service and update orchestrator service both started running at that point. Still though, it never...
I have an active license. I'm familiar with many places something can automatically run from, including Task Scheduler, but I've seen it somehow trigger some kind of update regardless. Of course I could've missed something.
This is exactly what I had in mind when posting this question thread. Thanks, I'll go through these one-by-one.
I'm unsure on what you mean by "already updated images" honestly. Do you mean an installation image that already contains all of the patches and updates?
This part is important to me...
By "Use NTLite for installations" do you mean you can use NTLite to update windows and/or install KB updates/packages? If so, can you elaborate somewhat on that?
Got it. Yeah, your "Stability" spoiler section is exactly what I'm trying to figure out actually. Your spoiler states the following:
So there is a way to truly forever pause windows update and make it manual only? If so, that would account for the "number of dependencies related to it" right...
