Additional function

[enneti]

My question is probably a noob question...
Maybe this is yet included or it's impossible to do in NTLite and if it's so the admin can delete this post, but...
I was thinking: for further customization is there the possibility to have a tab for operate by Power Shell command for integrate or remove packages of apps or other stuff?

I don't understand your exact question. Do you want to run a PS command to integrate packages in the install image, or run a Post-Setup script to install more software?

From the Updates screen, you can add or remove Store apps from Appx or MSIX package files, and downloaded Feature on Demand CAB's.

From the Post-Setup screen, you can add EXE installers with optional arguments, and any CMD or PS scripts. If you have a short command line, then it can be added as a single PS command.

I don't know if you have tried exploring these features. But we have several Guides, and previous discussions on how to use them.

If you basically meant for a command line, you can right-click loaded image and choose Explore Mount Directory.
Then open Powershell and change directory to that one, voila, powershell terminal - but only commands that support "Source" destination can be used, aka offline support.
DISM commands can.

NTlite uses DISM for integration, feature configuration and even App removal (if DISM is set in Components - toolbar Application removal mode).

Thak you Garling for the answer probably made because i'm still using not licenced version or because i'm not english and i've difficulties to explain my thoughts. I was thinking about to remove a package included in original iso like an update or for an ipotetic example a net.framework pack. I'll give a more careful look to all functions and sections of the program.
I meant a sub menu in the section "Remove" / Components to use also "by Power Shell command".
I didn't mean to add anything, my purpose is always to reduce, not to inflate.
I'll take a look for your guides. Thanks.

Thank you Nuhi for the reply and above all for your brilliant program. Last time i used before this was to make the last version of XP with all cumulative updates till the last, taken one by one from MS update catalog (the program was still named nLite). Great work, best software for customize every need for who operate every day with installation of o.s. in every kind of pc.

PowerShell supports the same servicing actions as DISM can perform on images. But licensed NTLite can remove some features and components that DISM doesn't modify, because it works directly on the WinSxS component store.

To answer your question: You can't run a PS command to update a mounted image while NTLite is running.

When NTLite loads an image, it sets an exclusive lock on the mount folder to prevent outside DISM commands from interfering with it. In order to use DISM on the same folder, you would have to exit NTLite without unloading the image. At this point, there is no exclusive lock.

To follow this rule, NTLite cannot call an outside DISM or a PS servicing command while running. If you're careful, you can use DISM or PS scripts to modify the source image before submitting it to NTLite for editing. But the whole point is to allow NTLite to do this work.

It was not my plan try to find ploy to bypass limits of NTLite free version, it was a simply curiosity because my level of knowledges in manipulating iso is very basic. Thanks always for your answers.
