Hi, I'm following Rentry's guide to debloat and install LTSC 2019, but I'm having problems at the W10UI step. First of all, the link in the guide doesn't lead me to a download page. There is one in the profile, and I downloaded W10UI_7.1, which I supposed to be the same thing, up to date. After several hours of work to integrate the updates, though, it spat out a .iso that when started with a VM gives me this screen.
update: just tried and started it with just the EVAL .iso and it's still the same error.
Isaac Miller
Where can I find SVF files for other languages of Embedded POSReady 7?

>Could you tell me what am I doing wrong? Following the guide of some autist to fuck up with your perfectly fine LTSC install disabling shit you don't even know what it do for literally no perfomance or privacy gain
Joseph Jackson
My first computer was windows 8, so I've always used that, it's not so bad besides the actual windows screen
I got a windows 7 PC from a friend, but don't have a monitor only HDMI and a TV, so no image shows up, any help?
Asher Morgan
wellp, you may be right, but I tried mounting everything in the VM, and even the raw untouched iso is giving me trouble.
There is the possibility that I could just be retarded
1. download LTSC (magnet:?xt=urn:btih:369E0306EF42BA0A1463E914C8819C3E575EBE8E) 2. unless you know what you're doing, do NOT run debloat scripts 3. run KMS_VL_ALL to activate it when it's installed. (forums.mydigitallife.net/threads/kms_vl_all-smart-activation-script.79535/) 4. live & learn, LTSC is already debloated, these steps are just taking it to another level
Benjamin White
will do. it'll take a couple hours to download with my shitty internet, but if this works I'll be set and very grateful
Eli Collins
do you even have a 64 bit CPU? maybe when you created the VM, you accidentally selected a 32 bit version.
that magnet link points to 4 different ISO's, only select the language/arch (x86, x64) that you'll need
Michael Gutierrez
well, retardation confirmed. I did select the 32 bit VM, because there was no 64 bit option available. in my defense, it's my first time using a VM, and I'm learning all this from scratch.
Thanks for pointing this out. It'll still take some time for me though. I have a pretty bad adsl (just having the torrent dowloading is making the recaptcha fail to communicate...)
Thomas Morales
>making the recaptcha fail to communicate... geez, where do you live? in a cave in iran?
as I said in step 4, live & learn, i felt like such an idiot when I was moving from 7 to 10, but some time on MDL taught me so much. that win10UI tool is very handy as one can create an updated ISO so a fresh installation will automatically install the newest CU (cumulative update) so you'll have less to install when you hit Windows Update. new security patches are normally released on the 2nd Tuesday of the month, they can be located here: support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4464619/windows-10-update-history
Luke Bell
>geez, where do you live? in a cave in iran? eh, something like that: rural Italy.
>so you'll have less to install when you hit Windows Update. at this point, considered that I'm using a fucked up version Win 10 Professional I already had to reset because it froze up after 15 seconds from login, I just want to move on to LTSC. If win update will have to do some more, I'll let it do it's thing
Connor Thomas
there isn't such, theres another language pack iso thing instead
Sebastian Cooper
I downloaded the .iso, mounted with Rufus on a drive, booted with it, and got this error. What does it mean? I tried using the win 10 pro installdrive to recover it, but nothing seem to work. could reinstalling win 10 do anything to help?
will do that, then. Even though I find it ridiculous that booting from a pendrive to install an OS would require drivers from another OS on another drive
Levi James
I just bought a new flash drive (64gb kingston DT). while copying files to it, it will copy for a second, and then stop, and then copy a bit more, and then stop, and repeat this until the file has copied. it doesn't do this on another pc i tested (running linux). anyone have any idea why this is happening?
Bentley King
I stay on MPC-HC until the day I die.
William Perez
not sure if you're still present but get it to work in a VM first before installing natively. baby steps man
just take the ISO, boot straight to it in the VM (make sure you choose 64 bit Win 10). let's see what happens.
Grayson King
****** or 32-bit, only you know what hardware you possess man, though you really went cheap if in fact it's not 64 bit.
Jonathan Allen
I used the LTSC optimize script a while ago and what I would recommend is to just get rid of Windows Defender. The rest is a fucking meme. Heck I would even say LTSC is a meme but to be fair I have had more issues with 1903 (though I'm sure I'd be fine if I used 1809).
Nathan Cruz
>Heck I would even say LTSC IMO, if one uses 10, use LTSC. it's not perfect, but it does what 10 does, just with a lot less bloat & normal MS bullshit. let the beta users test out the new feature updates, we'll get the features in a few years when the next LTSC is released.
Eli Johnson
>check if the cable is working >make sure it's plugged into the correct port dedicated/on-board report back
David Bell
Hyper-v or vmware? Which one is faster/more performant? Just want to run a separate linux/IBM/systemd distro on the side to do web dev stuff, and no wsl is too slow and wsl2 is literally just hyperv anyway
why are you shilling malware? enjoy being filtered, you fucking cunt this shit is proprietary too
Jonathan Sullivan
Wow, you took an image straight from bandizip's home page, that appears to be of an archive of the source code to bandizip that we don't have. I'm sure you're absolutely not a shill and are totally a real user.
Chase Mitchell
>this shit is proprietary You know you are in a Windows thread, right?
>you installed one proprietary program from a trusted software company that everyone uses >therefore you must love installing proprietary freeware from any random company around I bet you have lots of stds.
James Carter
you know that 7-zip exists right? i would rather pay 10 winrar licenses than trust this shitty program you are shilling i already identified your posting patterns, cuck have fun getting filtered imagine being so pathetic you have to shill your software here
Leo Ramirez
1 year of using and entering all my personal info into windows 10 AME and nothing has happened. Can confirm it's not botnet.
always remember to check checksums, dont trust shady sites ive used the windows 7 iso before for a vm with no internet access, but i never used the vista one
Ryder Garcia
based and arinopilled
Matthew Rodriguez
when is the next big update (to whatever version win10 will be on at that time) for ltsc?
"We create a new LTSC release approximately every three years, and each release contains all the new capabilities and support included in the Windows 10 features updates that have been released since the previous LTSC release. Unlike the year-and-month terminology employed to describe Windows 10 features updates (e.g. 1703 or 1809), LTSC releases are named with a specific year, such as Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2016 or Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2019, and they align to perpetual Office releases such as Office 2019."
Since the current LTSC came out in late 2018, then assuming MS stays on schedule, then I'm thinking kate 2021 is when the next version drops. But this is MS, shit will likely change.
Charles Gray
thank you good sir for posting the needful
Matthew Foster
stop shilling your shitty hacked iso
Noah Foster
Just use 8.1 or as I call it Windows Chad Edition
Jaxson King
does ltsc work with the 5700xt and the oculus rift s
nothing of that retarded memepic applies to VLC. You just pulled this shit out of your ass.
Wyatt Russell
Does it have a cascaded menu mode like 7-zip? I use all the options except the "zip and email" shit, so filling the top-level context menu with cruft is a big thumbs-down.
Luis Adams
It... has a menu that looks like winrar's context menu? Wow so many features. So amazing. I'm sending a thousand dollars to the author of bandizip right away, this is revolutionary.
>get a notification that support for my version of windows 10 will be ending soon >windows hasn't auto updated despite the fact that I leave it on all night every night with nothing open, giving it ample time to do it's thing while I sleep Is this supposed to happen? I thought you could just leave windows 10 alone and it would keep itself up to date
Samuel Sanders
>Gotta buy that winrar license first, user. Or just unclick cascaded context menu in 7-zip options
Elijah Hughes
Need help with disabling windows update permanently on my W10 Home. It keeps taking up 25% cpu and I'm fed up of hitting Win+R services.msc every single time on every startup. Also the latest update broke nearly everything on my laptop.
Anyway to do it in Home or if there's a registry hack? Guides I found are for non-Home W10 only. Thanks in advance.
Blake Rodriguez
>help me an hero This is a FRIENDLY Windows thread. We don't do assisted suicide here.
visual studio is just an IDE it doesn't inject anything (does have telemetry though) microsoft's compiler, cl, is what injects shit, and it always injected some level of offline telemetry (the rich header) and used to inject online telemetry but stopped after people called them out on it
the singular alternative compatible with microsoft's C++ ABI is clang-cl
Sebastian Kelly
also you're still going to have to install the windows SDK which includes cl.exe
Jaxson Johnson
oh and clang-cl is compatible with visual studio and is also much faster, more compliant, more feature rich, and all round better than cl you should always use it i use clang 9 i compiled from llvm's git it took literally 9 hours but it was worth it it's got some nice features
Thomas Morris
>it took literally 9 hours Holy shit, can't you cross compile clang for windows from linux or something? Did you compile it with cl or bootstrap from a precompiled clang-cl?
Dominic Phillips
Oh that explains a lot, so i can keep my DE and use a different compiler >online telemetry but stopped after people called them out on it I doubt it but whatever But can you use other parts of the SDK without cl.exe? Even if one is not working with c++?
Liam James
Bootstrapped from windows, I think the biggest problem was cmake is a little bitch who refuses to use lld-link. This was unfortunately like a week before microsoft optimized their linker by multiple magnitudes so linking took so fucking long.
>I doubt it but whatever They did stop, people dissasembled the binaries. >But can you use other parts of the SDK without cl.exe? Even if one is not working with c++? Yea, as long as you're working with C or C++.
That makes it sound like you're working with something else, C# maybe? That's a bit different, for one I don't think you need the windows SDK, I think you just bind to the .dll binaries already on the system using pinvoke. Also, unfortunately, afaik, aside from mono no one aside from microsoft's got a compiler. .NET core's open source though, roslyn and core-clr probably either don't have telemetry, or more likely, have a compiler flag to disable it.
Brody Ramirez
> I think the biggest problem was cmake is a little bitch who refuses to use lld-link I think the biggest problem is NTFS. Compiling anything is much faster in linux. >This was unfortunately like a week before microsoft optimized their linker by multiple magnitudes so linking took so fucking long. That certainly didn't help either.
Cooper Sanders
>That makes it sound like you're working with something else, C# maybe? I'm learning C but I have only made small programs that run in cygwin, I started this discussion looking up to the future but all honest I have no idea on how to write and compile a big program for windows
Joshua Foster
Oh, C? C and C++ compilers are usually merged, you'll need to install the windows sdk, and you definitely want to use clang-cl then. Microsoft's C compiler is unmaintained and their C++ compiler is actually more compliant with recent C standards than their C one. >I have no idea on how to write and compile a big program for windows Same way you do it on any other system. Only you probably have to touch the win32 api which is festering aids. Get a build system like cmake (here's a good tutorial github.com/ttroy50/cmake-examples ) and copy the project structure of some bigger project (i personally really like how llvm does it).
one thing that's really useful and windows exclusive is linker pragmas which both clang-cl and cl have makes it much easier to link dependencies and simplifies cmakefiles #pragma comment(lib, "filename of the .lib file without the extension")
Anthony Cooper
the unquoted lib is literally lib btw like to link opengl on windows, //windows library that contains basic opengl functions #pragma comment(lib, "opengl32")
Christopher Rogers
>I doubt it but whatever You have to understand that VS is used by professional developers. If it's there, rest assured they will tell you it's there. If it's not there, rest assured it isn't there. There's aren't NEETs in a bedroom somewhere LARPing as real devs.
Wyatt Flores
>Microsoft's C compiler is unmaintained and their C++ compiler is actually more compliant with recent C standards than their C one I think I've heard about this, can you compile C with a C++ compiler? I should worry about this later anyway >Same way you do it on any other system. I don't have experience with other systems, C is my first language and I've only made programs to learn the internals of the language I'll look into CMake and such
Nolan Rodriguez
Guys, I fell for GNU/Linux meme How do I come back!? Redpill me on windows
>can you compile C with a C++ compiler? I should worry about this later anyway For the most part, yes, (there are some incompatibilities between C and C++, but like I said, they're usually merged into one application. see pic related, just use /TC
If it works for you, stick with Gahnoo. If it doesn't, come back.
Parker Clark
I'm using gcc right now so I don't need any additional commands. When I move off cygwin to windows proper I'd have to look for another compiler.
Colton Morris
clang-cl and cl share the same options, clang-cl just has additional ones, so it applies to both
Lincoln Price
>It keeps taking up 25% cpu maybe it's time to backup/wipe, come home to LTSC (see thread for download instructions)
Blake Butler
people don't choose to use windows, they're forced to due to work requirements, exclusive software, or simply not having the time to learn something else if you've managed to escape windows, why the fuck would you want to go back to it?
Jason Cook
Or just wanting something that, y'know, actually works.
Any 19H2 testers here? Is it really just featureless bugfixes?
Bentley Carter
No, I'm not, but I play one on MDL. Pretty much. MS are holding off on the good shit for 20H1 it seems.
Dylan Russell
eh, i just download the newest builds from uupdump.ml, install, play with it for 10 minutes, get bored, then wait for the next version to come out.
Owen Williams
What are this Shit treads for, how can anyone trust your HAKED GARBAGE?
Levi Taylor
Hey that's great then, because I truly prefer a yearly model for features. It will feel more like a corporate environment to me if I wait patiently until every October each year to get the fixed spring features updates the average Joe beta tested for free for me. After this October, the only thing that would make me install a potential 20H1 update would be removal of Cortana into a store app or any other significant debloat. Thanks!
Xavier Sullivan
Yeah I get that feeling, most of the time I'm just glad when the updates are dealt with in a live system. Testing in a VM is too boring to begin with. I'd rather do a Clonezilla backup and test it hot on baremetal. Only then I can tell how drivers and software work afterwards, but usually I lack the time.
Jayden Campbell
this and checked I fell for the freetard meme once: my Bluetooth adapter which was plug and play from day 1 on windows didn't work, not even with 1000 "fixes" I found on forums/the arch wiki screen tearing on gnome, KDE and xfce shit performance on my Intel + nvidia setup both with proprietary and free drivers cancerous boot times on a fresh install on a fucking SSD meanwhile, on windows 10, you install this bitch, get your programs installed and you don't have to worry about anything ever if you have common sense pro plus 2019 I always read about these retards saying that feature updates break their shit this used to be true for me back when windows 10 first came out a few years ago the only case I can imagine windows breaking anything in your setup is if you have a autistic riced desktop with a bunch of modifications for normal people who change their taskbar position and wallpaper at most, being productive instead of ricing, this isn't a problem sorry, I just can't be fucked to jump 100 hoops to do what I can do on windows in minutes
Mason Myers
>arch To be fair, there's 99% of your problem right there.
