    [CRITICAL] May 2023 SecureBoot fix will break all boot media

    How is that even possible? What exactly happens when the enforcement is enabled, on a technical level?

    (SOLVED) Issue with Integration of NET 3.5 + Cumulative Updates

    That question was directed to Clanger (who wrote about using sysprep), not you.

    (SOLVED) Issue with Integration of NET 3.5 + Cumulative Updates

    Is there a particular reason to do the install + modify + sysprep + capture dance rather than just two NTLite passes as garlin above had suggested?

    Clean update backup method choice when preparing an image for subsequent customization

    Hi. Let's say I need to build lots of customized Windows images. Consequently, to reduce the time of each individual image build, I want to integrate upgrades into an intermediate image and then use that as a base for further customization. So, instead of doing this: Unmodified ISO -> NTLite...

    [Bug/Request] Handle nested mounted WIMs when unloading an image directory

    I still do not see what is "not possible" about my feature request. The behavior that I need is achievable manually, thus it should be possible programmatically.

    [Bug/Request] Handle nested mounted WIMs when unloading an image directory

    That's not the situation I was talking about. In my case, the only condition that's blocking the unmount of the topmost image is the presence of nested mounted images. It is already possible to unmount them all, but I have to click "Unload" twice. Speaking plainly, what I want is to make NTLite...

    Event Viewer channels?

    Yeah, I'm not experienced in Windows' inner workings by any means. Actually, my goal here is still the same: to forward-port MT's preset to LTSC 2021. Any guides you would advise me to follow?

    Event Viewer channels?

    Hi, What exactly are the "Event Viewer channels" that can be configured on the Settings tab of NTLite? What am I gaining/losing by disabling them and what am I risking (in terms of lost functionality) by doing so? Or, to put it another way: why exactly I should not just disable all of them, or...

    [Bug/Request] Handle nested mounted WIMs when unloading an image directory

    If processing of an image is interrupted when nested WIMs are mounted (example: install.wim, boot.wim and winre.wim), then clicking "Unload" on the image directory in the Image tab will only unmount winre.wim and boot.wim, skipping install.wim (presumably because it is impossible to unmount a...

    Exporting full lists of components/services/scheduled tasks?

    There might have been a misunderstanding. What I said is that simply running ntlite.exe /forcelistcomponents /saveallstates and then saving the clean preset (as suggested above) is not enough to get the list of all detected components — this way you get the list of components that should have...

    Exporting full lists of components/services/scheduled tasks?

    Thanks, I see your minimal services thread. I'll use that as a baseline and then just try to comb through the newly appeared services and scheduled tasks. Yup, there's a few LTSC threads around, but none of those answer my questions definitively (: So yeah, apologies for piling up yet another...

    Exporting full lists of components/services/scheduled tasks?

    Thanks — it does work for services, tasks and tweaks, but there seems to be an inaccuracy with regards to components. When you run ntlite.exe /forcelistcomponents /saveallstates and then just save the clean preset, you do not get a listing of all components — you only get a listing of components...

    Exporting full lists of components/services/scheduled tasks?

    Hi, I'm currently trying to set up a bare-bones / maximally performant Windows 10 installation, mostly for system benchmarking and overclocking tests. As I'm quite less than skilled in Windows internals (especially services and other aspects of performance tuning), I decided to first try my...

    Windows is not activating

    The host does not use Windows. re: lightweight resources — you are correct. I was mainly interested in the services/tweaks part of MT_'s preset. The program in question is a CAD/CAE suite, I'm not sure exactly what does it need (but networking and SMB are on the list).

    Hm, interesting tool. I'll try that.

    Windows is not activating

    They are and they do. Seeing as there aren't any well-maintained "moderate" presets around (or I didn't find them), normally my usage pattern with NTLite would be to just do minimal customization by hand (integrate latest upgrades, remove telemetry, disable ads, configure settings to my liking...

    Yup, I'm applying that to the latest available Windows 10 LTSC.

    Windows is not activating

    Nah, I've disabled that straight after installation. Also tried with the whole firewall setup cut from post-install scripts, no change in behavior.

    Windows is not activating

    I am experiencing the same problem with the same preset. Was this ever resolved?
