Thanks Garlin…
You were, as always synthetic but irreplaceable. I tried my installation with “fontreg” and it works perfectly!!!
Thanks again for your irreplaceable expertise.
For those who, like me, have this need, here is a summary guide of what I have done (and if anyone has different solutions ... they are welcome).
PREMISE:
starting from the UUP ISO, I extract and "work" with NTLITE (install.wim "isolated") the following additional versions:
- Home without privacy requests during installation
- Prof and Ent. without Microsoft Edge (natively)
- Ent. without Edge and without Microsoft Store (natively)
PREPARATION 1 WITH NTLITE:
Always with NTLite, for each version, added (among other things…) in Post-Setup also the following executable: Fontreg.exe /S .
PREPARATION 2 WITH 7ZIP:
Open with 7Zip the respective install.wim in the personal folder "isolated" and navigate to the folder /Windows/Fonts.
“Add” the fonts you need. Save the modified install.wim (just go up in 7Zip past the root folder of di install.win itself).
PREPARATION 3 WITH NTLITE:
Add to the native ISO (from UUP) all versions modified with NTLite according to this guide How to create a custom image with multiple editions.
Added all the versions to the ISO, create, with NTLite, the final ISO (Create ISO).
Et voilà!!!

Where do I put my "custom" fonts that didn't come with Windows , Where do I make my "Fonts" Folder so fontreg will find them?? JTM
1. Using 7-Zip or another tool, extract the ISO to a local folder.
2. Open a CMD window as Administrator.
3. Using CMD or Explorer, copy your font files into the newly created subfolder.
4. Download and extract FontReg.
5. From NTLite, load the ISO folder.
6. On the Post-Setup screen, Add / File (Before logon) -> fontreg.exe. Under the Parameters column, add the option "/S".
7. Apply changes, and create a new ISO. fontreg will re-index everything added to C:\Windows\Fonts.
2. Open a CMD window as Administrator.
Code:
cd /path/to/extracted/folder
mkdir sources\$OEM$\$$\Fonts3. Using CMD or Explorer, copy your font files into the newly created subfolder.
4. Download and extract FontReg.
5. From NTLite, load the ISO folder.
6. On the Post-Setup screen, Add / File (Before logon) -> fontreg.exe. Under the Parameters column, add the option "/S".
7. Apply changes, and create a new ISO. fontreg will re-index everything added to C:\Windows\Fonts.
Once you have extracted the ISO in any folder (for example C:\Pippo), you just need to open NTLite and
Image --> Add --> Image directory
and from explorer browse to the folder (c:\pippo)
